My name is Sheila. I\u2019m 32 and the financial director at a pretty big company. I worked my ass off to get here because ten years ago, my family threw me out on the street.<\/p>\n
When I was six, my mom left. Ran off with some guy, leaving a note saying she \u201ccouldn\u2019t do the family thing anymore.\u201d So, it was just me and Dad for three years. He tried his best, and we had a good routine.<\/p>\n
Then, when I was nine, she came back, crying and begging, with a little girl in tow. A DNA test confirmed the kid, my sister Emma, was Dad\u2019s. He forgave my mother, they got remarried, and I thought maybe things would go back to normal.<\/p>\n
