Your post was both tragic & inspiring, iadom. Tragic to have lost your father at such an early age and to have had to go into care. Inspiring, in that you, your brothers & your mother overcame the adversity and went on to lead successful lives.
I totally agree about what you said about using being in care as an excuse, people who do that, imo, think of themselves as 'victims', - something you & your brothers obviously rose above. Thankyou for sharing your thoughts.
