It's not abuse and I think you already know that you really have no grounds to complain. I guess if its therapeutic for you to vent here then more power to you, but otherwise you just kinda sound like your bitching about how unfair your life is.
I don't mean that as a slap in the face...I was just raised EXTREMELY sheltered. OK...by the age of 11...the scariest movie I had seen at that time...was Jurassic Park. My mom hung over me like a damn umbrella.
