My father was a violent alcoholic.  There were 6 children in the family.  After he died her hoarding became even worse than ever.
I never dated a boy more than once till I was a senior in high school because I was afraid to invite him in.    When Mom died the house was knee-deep in garbage, no hot water, toilets inoperable.  The city condemned the house and seemed to blame me because I was the only one who showed up at the housing hearing!  I felt like saying "where were you
**holes when 6 of us kids were growing up in this mess?"
