I was about 12 or 13 Fromaround age 5-11 we had a bunch of kids in the neighborhood , lots of kids about 2-3 years older than me. We (so I thought) were like family. Ffwd a couple years and they all ghosted me. Around that time I realized my parents were involved with their own lives, they loved me sure I guess, but they really didn't know or care what was going on in my life. Then I realized nobody really gives a shit about anyone. That's tough for a kid, 4+ decades later it still kinda fucks with my mind
