WHO IS MY DADDY?
(Mother's terrible secret)
This is a story about a young boy growing up without knowing who his father was to guide or advise him on the pitfalls of life.
This account covers from a very young age through to an age when he is about to enter the adult world on his own.
All the author had during this period, knowing a person I called Daddy was my mother's "Common-Law Husband" known as a "Partner" in today's vernacular, which was a life of brutality, incessant beatings and physical and mental abuse.
Who was my Daddy? Over the years I have got nearer to the truth, although my mother and her FAMILY had kept a deep dark secret to the end.
You, the reader, must make up your own mind about what follows. Everything that is written is how I recall what happened to me during my short stay on this wonderful planet.
Life still goes on now, way into my retirement years, and listening to friends and veterans talking about their accounts of their early life experiences has encouraged me to put mine on record.
