The Outlier: An open, honest potrayal of family betrayal, guilt and neglect.
Have you ever felt totally alone and unloved?
We expect our families to offer us support, love and protection - but what happens when love is not given freely? What happens to those children who are tainted by neglect, growing up starved of moral guidance and compassion?
This is a true story bravely written by Morgan Harrison, who has experienced years of depression, anxieties and uncertainty through growing up in a family where love was withdrawn. Kept off school, not encouraged and told at just 9 years old that she would have to but her own clothes; Morgan lived on the peripheral of her parent's attention, an outsider looking in. Life was both volatile and bleak.
"When I think about my past, I have a cold knot of anger in the pit of my stomach. Inside that knot, is a bal of pain. Everyone wants to feel loved but I didn't."
Every cloud has a silver lining...
Despite her upbringing, Morgan has become a highly intelligent woman and admits that her childhood may have played a part in this. If she would have been raised normally by a loving set of parents... perhaps she would be blind to all that happens in the world.
Morgan has spent her life observing people and trying to understand how they work. In this book, she shares her own opinions and theories about the world and the people in it, based on a lifetime of observations.
Step into a world of doubt, loneliless and betrayal and immerse yourself in the thoughts of a human outlier.
