>There is a secret life in every family. Things you don't talk about. Because it could make them worse, or because it would be embarrassing, or you'd have to face them, let them be real. Infidelity, lies, violence, a shameful past, parents who don't care, or don't care enough, or just don't understand, or are sick. Every child has secrets that aren't charming or innocent, but heart crushing and seemingly impossible to overcome. And while children learn to deal with it all they grow up and become part of the busy world. But before they do anything is possible. All it takes is an idea and someone to share it with.

[...]

Secrets

Mommy is sick.
Your mother has a debilitating and eventually fatal disease like Leukemia, Multiple Sclerosis, or Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy. You would give anything to make the doctors finally find a way to cure her. But they said it was probably not going to happen. She is becoming harder to talk to and it makes you sad and afraid to lose her or anybody.

Daddy gets mad.
Your father has a lot to deal with and sometimes he gets very angry. He yells and looks threatening, is maybe even violent. And he's mean, which is even worse, he just won't listen. It makes you afraid of conflict but also makes you angry when challenged by authority.

My brother is dead.
You had an older brother when you were so young you can hardly remember. But something bad happened and he died. Your Mommy and Daddy were very proud of him. You have seen pictures, and sometimes, when they're very sad like on Christmas, they talk about him. You are sad too because now your parents only have you and you are not as good a child to have. It makes you afraid to fail and disappoint so you'd rather not even try.

More Secrets I can use as point buy drawbacks please. Setting is 90s Horror with kids. This is not the horror, just PC background, kinda grimdark, but still normal therapy stuff..
>>
Mommy is cheating.
Your mother is having an affair. She has a man come over during the day when Daddy is at work. She tells you he is just a friend but then they go upstairs and you know that it isn't because she told you not to tell Daddy. You don't like keeping secrets from Daddy but you love Mommy so you don't know what to do. You worry everyone keeps secrets like this and it is harder and harder for you to trust anyone.

My parents are deaaaaaaaad

Mommy and Daddy Don't See Each Other Anymore

Your parents split up at some point during your short life. Now they're both so sad all the time.

(Basically go off the small amount of social stigma divorce still had in the 90's, aswell as the old, it was my fault complex. Not sure how you're statting this, but that should be enough to write more up off.)

Little Princess
When Mom was young she was very famous. She was even on the cover of the church paper for the whole County. Now she drives you to practice every day so you can be very famous too. You're very good, and cameras love you. That means you look good in pictures. Which you enjoy posing for. What you don't enjoy is people doubting your superiority, or failing to succumb to your charme.

>>
>>19112620
Flipside of that

Future Sports Star

Your father was a up and coming star in a sport, until the injury. But thats ok, because now you're going to be even more successful then him! Or else.
>>
>>19112584
Mom's Icky Friend
Daddy has to work a lot. And Mommy has a trainer to help with her shape. You don't like him because he always locks the door to the bathroom or the bedroom. And Mommy always laughs funny when he's there. Bad funny. It makes you distrust anything people tell you because you understand that everybody lies when they've been mean.

Mummy/Daddy (Pick One) Hit Me (Can be taken twice for both, I suggest diminishing returns though)

For various reasons, one or both parents are incredibly violent with you. You can't stand loud noises or the threat of violence from an authority figure. What do you mean you didn't INTENTIONALLY spill that all over THE CARPET?

>Mommy is sick
Your secret is that you believe you Mommy won't die if you love her enough.

>Daddy gets mad
Your secret is that you love your dad even though you pretend very hard to hate him.

>My brother is dead
Your secret is that you wish you could have died instead of your brother.

>Mommy is cheating
Your secret is that you know she is unfaithful and you still love her more than anybody.

>Mommy and Daddy Don't See Each Other Anymore
Your parents fought a lot over things you did and then they got divorced. Now you spend some weekends with your dad and he has to pay your mom money. But you get 2 birthday parties every year. It makes you give up easily and take the blame.
Your secret is that you are very angry with mom and dad for giving up on your family but you cannot show it because they could stop seeing you too.

>Little Princess
Your secret is that you are afraid your Mommy will not love you if you don't become very famous.

Beaten
When you have been bad you don't just get lectures. You get beaten. And not over the knee spanked, you get punched and slapped and thrown around the room. You have become good at hiding the bruises. When you are faced with aggression you either get very angry, or you start crying. You are good at sneaking away and hiding. Your secret is getting beaten up at all, or that badly and regularly, or that it even bothers you.
>>
My Little Robot
Your parents believe that being good in school, being better than school, is the most important thing in life. You don't just do your homework. You read the books for next week, do any extra credit work, search school stuff on the internet, and read the newspaper. This makes you scared when you do something that might not be allowed. It also makes you think about problems rather than do something about them. Your secret is that you think you're not smart enough to do it, and that learning instead of playing in the afternoon is just cheating somehow.
>>

Yesssss! Datfeel. Nah, not really - I hate people, so, books are awwwright by me.

Bad Touch
A grown up was very bad and touched you in a bad place. It was very confusing and you are very ashamed of it. And when you try to understand it when playing with other children grown ups get very mad and you can't see your friends any more. It makes you very uncomfortable when you are being touched anywhere. And it makes you curious about what's in people's pants, but you must never ask about it. You get very angry when somebody accidentally sees it or you have to go to the doctor, or when there is only one big shower for everybody. Your secret is that you even have anything in your pants.

Big brother plays with you
Your brother loves you. He loves you so much, in fact, that he likes playing his "special games" with you, when dad and mom aren't home. You don't like to play those games with him, but he is otherwise really kind to you. He even buys you brand new toys, each time after you play toghether.
You love your brother too, so you put up with it. But you still really don't like it, because it makes you feel bad, somehow. You can't tell it to anyone too, because it's a secret, and you think it could be bad for him if someone knew. It also makes you afraid of other boys, since you think they also like to play those kind of weird games.

Jog Dad
Your father had the greatest time in school with his team buddies and all the mischief they got up to. He expects nothing less of you. If you're not team captain you're doing something wrong. Are you a fagget?! Would you rather have a nice little tea party with your dolls and your teddy? It has made you competitive and a bully. You have to prove yourself in competition on anything and you shy away from outsiders, they might be faggets.
>>
>>19114197
Your secret is you fear that you might be a fagget. Sometimes your mind lingers on faggy stuff, like feelings, or lonelyness.
>>
Little Sunshine
Your life has been good. So good in fact that you cannot imagine anything to really go wrong ever. You could just tell your loving parents, the helpful police, or the president, and they will make it all right. It makes you take everyone at their word, you never get when someone is making fun of you, and your relaxed stance with a smile and a "Why?" has gotten you into misunderstandings more than once. People think you're smug, whatever that means. It makes people get annoyed with you quickly. Your secret is that you feel trapped in a bubble where the world makes sense, but it's hard to get people inside your bubble with you so they can understand. You can't connect.
>>
>>19112601
In the system
You are a foster child. After several temporary families your case worker told you that this was hopefully permanent. And the people are nice enough. A bit goody-two-shoes pray-a-lots, but nice. You have found friends at school and life is eerily good for once. It means that you're tough, you don't panic and you take things as they come. But you're also suspicious and really unable to bond because it may all be whisked away tomorrow, if you get into too much trouble, or 'dad' loses his job or something.
Your fear is that you don't deserve to have real loving parents because you're flawed somehow, and that your foster parents will realize that.

Our Pride
Your parents love you, but they always compared you to others. Every your success is blown out of proportions and told to friends and relatives multiple times, every failure end in lecture with several examples of more successful children their friends and relatives have. You always feel like an object of competition, not a person, but you learn to disregard any opinions about yourself. Nothing people say can break, or even touch, you.
Your secret is self-esteem. Constant comparisons makes you feel unimportant and not worthy, there is always someone better than you, even at things yo getting praise for.

Evil?
When you were little a boy pushed you. You pushed him back. Then he died. You don't really remember the details but it involved a car and a funeral and your family had to move. Your parents sometimes look at you as if they're afraid. It makes you afraid of yourself sometimes. You like to cut worms and amputate bugs, once you set a cat on fire, but nobody saw. It felt really bad, but then you imagined your parents had seen it, and that felt good. Every time you see an opportunity to shock you feel the urge to take it, top it, and watch people react to it. Your secret is that you just want to be normal but you can't because your parents found out you're not.

>>19114808

This seems to confuse two different issues - the budding psychopath, and the kid who got a bad reputation through an unlucky break. The latter is kind of more interesting.

Mummy and Daddy's not here right now...
Some parents are just distant from their child. Sometimes it's from trying to cope with their own problems and not wanting to burden the kid. Other times, it's because they're too busy with work, or even worse, their own life, and they're a little too selfish to give it up for their kid.

You're a little used to no one listening to you and you do everything on your own. You deal with everything yourself. Mummy and daddy aren't there, or they're too busy. You don't bother going to adults anymore. They're all too busy. You deal with everything yourself. Even if it scares you or you don't understand it. You have to. They said you're a big boy now and you can't dissapoint them.

Ouch my childhood.

Not Fit For This World
You're just a little bit smarter and a little bit kinder than the adults around you. Not smart enough to be a prodigy and not good enough to be a saint, but smart enough to understand when you're being told to follow rules for no reason, or when the reasons don't match what the adults claim. You know it's wrong when the teacher singles out one kid and persecutes him, when adults don't bother finding out what happened and punish whoever is convenient, or when the whole class is punished for the crimes of one kid. You aren't a rebel. You're quiet and well-behaved, with a strong moral center and a desire to follow the rules and play fair - it's just that sometimes you seem like the only one.

And the more you learn, the more you see how the world works, the more you can't help feeling that it's all wrong.

Mom and Dad say im special

You have some troubles conecting with other children, but it never bothered you, you feel you have an understanding of the world and don't feel much about people not sharing it. Your parents however seem to make a big fuss, "autistism", "ADD", "Asperger" and other complicated words you don't understand seem to be thrown around you a lot and your parents flip out whenever people don't give you special threatment. This bothers you.


(basically, a kind of situation where the parents try to diagnose their kid with trendy mental conditions and overally do whatever they can to blame a kid's social awkwardness on anything other than their failure as parents)

On Ritalin
You used to get mad. Mostly at your parents, but other people too. So they took you to a lot of doctors who asked you a lot of questions about how you feel and what that makes you want to do. Now you take your pills. X-Box isn't as much fun any more, but you're no longer mad at all the teachers. You can be a bit slow to react, you like to think about what people say first.
Your secret is that you think there's nothing wrong with you. You only get mad when people are not listening to what you say, and that is no disease. But it is easier to take the pills than to fight with your parents all the time.

Oh god my childhood. I was a aggresive mofo when I was younger, got put on the pills, and I swear it completely changed who I was so much that I refuse to take any pills for disorders. What if I lose who I am?

Don't push pills on your kids guys.

Home Alone
Mom and dad are always out. They come home when you have to go to bed. You have your own house key, and you use it every day. You warm up your own food and do your homework without being told to. Your room is always clean, you know what's on TV on all the stations all afternoon, and you really wish you could get a puppy. It makes you needy and hungry for attention, but also self reliant. You know where things are and how to do things.
Your secret is that you cry a lot when you are alone and playing with other kids in the back yards is about the coolest thing you can imagine.

For some people ADHD drugs can be useless or terrible, for others they can be a real boon.

I was diagnosed with adult ADHD recently. Ritalin gave me palpitations and even modafinil just made me feel tense, so medication didn't work for me.

I was lucky - I had a good psychologist to talk to about it, and I was an adult so nobody could ignore my feedback or tell me what I was going to take. If I'd had parents or teachers demanding results the process might have been less pleasant.

Also, one problem with ADHD is that it's culturally defined. It's not a specific disease, it's just a normal variation of focusing ability that some people have, and the only reason it's an illness is that they need or want to do things that require more focus. Now, if those things are personally important to them, treatment seems like a good option, but if they're forced into treatment because society forces them into school, where you have to learn in a very specific and not really optimal way, that doesn't suit them - well, that feels wrong.

Anyway, ignore anyone who says Ritalin is always great or always bad. It depends on the case.

These two, so hard.
Ritalin, ADD, single parent home, me and my brother.
Brother and I have a strong bond, but childhood sure did a number on me.
Now I have problems holding a reliable job because I lack discipline, and never formed proper childhood social connections or fit into a community because of constant moving.

"We're moving again?"
You moved around alot. Mommy and daddy always told you that it was their job which did this, but you'll have to make new friends again.
You might not even be able to write letters to your old ones, or sometimes they just stop writing.
Or you lose the paper which had your friend's address to write him.
It's hard to form social connections when you feel like you'll disappoint your friends by moving and making people sad, so you stick to yourself.

Urchin

You remember very little of mommy/daddy, you remember a house and a lot of yelling and the stressed face of your parents every time they picked up the mail. You where often hungry and left alone, your mother loved you and you always wanted to be strong for her. Sometimes you went to school with clothes that didn't fit right and the other kids all looked at you funny and asked questions like "why not just buy a new one?" but you didn't understand why replacing broken things was so easy for everyone else.One day mommy never came back and a few days later you got so hungry, you began to steal from the neighbors, one day a strange man in a suit came to the door and you felt scared so you ran away. After living outside and stealing food for a few weeks you were eventually placed into foster care after blacking out in public.

You don't trust anyone, you feel like you aren't good enough but are constantly out to prove otherwise, often at your own expense or the expense of others. You feel as if the world owes you a childhood and hate people who had it easier than you. People say your a delinquent as you often commit petty crimes. You are quick to anger and also very street smart, you are good at stealing and lying.

THC helps me deal with my social anxiety, but mostly because it kind of opened up my mind to why I needed to be more sympathetic and express concern/feeling and facial expressions in conversation. I don't use it daily or anything, I just have it on the weekends to unwind with my friends. I also feel it's made me a bit closer with them and through them I've become better versed in social interaction.

Before it I had always spoken in a very monotone voice without much facial expression. I always thought I was just a very calm person since everyone else seemed to get so upset over little problems or spend time worrying about things that were out of their hands.

Part of me feels like I've lost part of myself, but mostly it just seems like a personality upgrade. I don't think I ever had a disease or anything, but probably being a middle child to parent who had two boys and one girl left me socially stunted. I was always playing by myself and my brother was basically "king of school" and I wasn't cool enough to hang out with him and his friends. We are close now though, we've both matured since then. Back then I didn't really make many friends I just kind of did my own thing, a lot of people at school seemed to really like me, but I never got invited to anything.

But someone will probably just call me a pothead.

Independent

Mommy/Daddy always leave to go somewhere before you go to school, and they come back late at night acting funny. No one is really home long enough to make food for you or play with you, so you usually have to do everything by yourself. Maybe if you love mommy/daddy enough, they'll start doing things for you?
>>
I'm a Mistake

You never really felt like you fit in your family. Daddy never listens to you, and Mommy doesn't like to be around you.
Your siblings are distant and cold, you get blamed for things you don't even know about.
It always confused you until you heard mommy and daddy yelling, and she called you a "mistake".
Your secret is you have no sense of self worth, cannot fit into groups and have trouble connecting with others. You have a deep need to prove yourself worthy, and often deny yourself happiness until you do.
This makes you reckless, foolhardy, and dangerously single-minded in tasks.

One of them says "Your initial reaction when you found out you were pregnant" In handwritten blue ink it just says "Oh shit"

Outside Looking In
You grew up with a perfect family. A mother and father who always made sure to spend time with you, a sibling who's your best friend. you've never had to go without and you've never felt pressured to succeed. In fact, you can't think of anything wrong with your family or anything that would make it better. The problem is you. No matter how good things are you just can't seem to be happy. As great as life is, you feel like you can't enjoy it. Being sad when you have such a great life makes you feel guilty so you pretend to be happy. Every day you smile a beautiful lie to your family and every time you do you feel like you're just not like them. They're perfect, but you're not. Your secret is that you are terrified of letting people see the real you, and no matter how close you get to someone there's always that wall between you.

In The Corner.

Your parents always told you not to make eye contact with strangers, not to talk to strangers, it made them very angry when you did. You began to think of it as rude when you looked people in the eye or spoke up. None of your opinions were ever good and you were told all of your ideas were wrong. You were always told to mind your manners, even when just sitting quietly in a corner. You always have so many questions but must learn everything from watching people. You've become very good at telling a lot about people just by watching them, but you're afraid to interact with anyone. No one seems to notice you and you began to like eavesdropping and spying on people like a little game. You've seen a lot of people doing a lot embarrassing or bad things. Especially mommy and daddy.

Your secret is you love knowing everyone's secrets. You only feel self worth when you can use them to apply leverage.

Game of Thrones reference.
John Snow is the bastard son of Ned Stark.
He cheated on his wife and brought the son home to raise him as his responsibility.
Lady Stark was obviously not pleased with this.

So, the "mistake" in this sense is the child is a bastard born through infidelity.
A living reminder that your spouse cheated on you, and/or a blood sucking urchin that isn't yours.

You have been diagnosed with Asperger's, your parents explained it. It means that there is a reason for everyone always changing the rules and being all jittery, and that reason is in your head. It is usually not a problem, only sometimes people don't understand. You go to a special school, but you play with the children in the neighborhood as well. Sometimes. It makes you not understand social cues at all and gives you an impressive capacity for grasping numbers, patterns, and rules.
Your secret is that you know people think you are just stupid, but you cannot tell them you know because then you would have to stop talking to them.

It's Nothing
The other children at school bully you, saying that you're a pain and should go away and never come back. The teachers tell you that if you ignore them, they'll go away, but that hasn't worked so far. After a while, you stopped reaching out for help in case the bullying gets worse. The result is that you're a good secret keeper, but you struggle to talk to others when you genuinely need something. Your secret is that you're scared that the other children are right and that you really should just go and never return.

Mom Gets High
Your mom hits the pipe every day. While dad is out working she is sprawled out on the couch with her little glass pipe smoking meth, crushed pills, or crack. Sometimes she takes your things and sells them. When she sees you she either yells or starts crying. Your dad thinks she needs help, but he's afraid the cops will take her away. It has made you resistant against drama and emotional blackmail. And it has made you numb. You don't care about anything any more really. Stuff just keeps happening.
Your secret is that your mom doesn't love you enough to be a good mother, something must be wrong with either of you.

Different
You're different from everyone around you and everyone knows it just by looking at you and they treat you differently because of it. Your parent(s) might be different too. They try and make you proud of your differences or fight back against any wrongs, but that just makes you stand out more.
Your secret is that if you became more like everyone else, you'd be treated the same way.

Bumping in tears.

Sickly
You were sick for a long time and your parents were very scared. But the doctors say you're all better now, almost as good as normal. Of course you still need your inhaler, and all the pills you take. But you can play outside and have adventures now. It makes you afraid to miss anything exciting, jealous even, and overly cautious when it comes to your health like your parents taught you.
Your secret is that you use being sick as an excuse whenever you need one while still being afraid to miss out.

I made the grave mistake of cranking up some Dango My Nigga before tryign to read and understand this thread AND NOW IM ACTUALLY CHOKED UP

;~; MY NIGGAS SHOULD HAVE BETTER ;~;

>that feel when family home issues that you aren't sure are actually bad enough to care about, and so you feel bad about feeling bad about them, but then "in the moment" you just plain feel bad because your mother is being her beligerent alcoholic self again or your dad is being all uppity for no reason or whatever
>that feel when constant issues at school because you're all paranoid that they hate you, and it only makes them actually hate you, making you dread any kind of interaction with anyone other than your one or two good friends (and assume they just pity you anyway)
>that feel when even when you calm down towards college, the only people you really make friends with are the weird animu nerds and you can never get around to actually making friends with your classmates unless they extend their hand first
>that feel when you try not to feel it
>that feel when you fail
...Fucking Dango My Nigga. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=fvwp&NR=1&v=puHyO5JNOE0

that said I don't understand this game, can you explain what you're supposed to DO, OP? Is it an RPG about living through and solving these issues?

Bad Memories

You were a young adult then, and was intellectual enough to step up with your aunts, uncles and parents. It was you who first noticed something wrong with your cousin. She kept hanging out with this guy, even her sister starts to notice. You suspect something, and try to warn your elders. They do not listen. You watch in vain as your cousin's "friend" was supposed to be married to someone else, and they decided to elope rather than go through with the marriage. After watching the the boys family and your family tear each other apart, you learn to distrust romance of any kind, and have a great hatred to people of great sexual activity. You learned to be cautious and ruthless in protecting your friends and families, often disregarding other people in other to do it.

I know my first name is Steven/Stephanie

You know that mommy and daddy weren't the FIRST mommy and daddy - you have hazy memories of being taken away from them when you were very young. This is a really big secret that could get your new mommy and daddy into a lot of trouble if anyone ever found out.

In a cult
Faith is very important at your home. You go to service every day. And you have very strict rules, rules that the other children don't have. But it makes you a better person. You have hangups like sexuality, the government, or meat. If these are mentioned you valiantly regurgitate your parents' views. And other people are so different, you don't open up.
Your secret is that you wish you could just be normal, but you are afraid you'll just become another lost soul.

Dressed Down

All your classmates were pairing up to be girlfriend and boyfriend. Why couldn't you? You did all the right things: observed the apple of your eye from afar to learn what they liked and disliked, learned who their friends were. Finally you worked up the courage and passed the note to their grapevine, but something went wrong. When they found out it was YOU, and not SOMEONE ELSE who passed that note, they stormed up to you at recess, threw the note in your face, and screamed that you were awful and wished you were dead.

Your secret is that even though you want them more than anything else, you're afraid nobody of the opposite sex can ever love you.

There was another song I was going to post with those but I couldn't find one that wasn't live. Here's the gist of it.
>So when the season comes I pray that god take mother to her grave
>In an endless, frigid, bitter, boiling sea
>I know what kind of son hopes someone with a gun puts a bullet through her brain
>Cause I'm that bitches bitter, hateful seed

Someone told me his mom tried to poison him when he was a kid.
He also wrote a song about a woman killing her baby because "she swore she heard the voice of Jesus telling her it was wrong to keep it", although I don't think it's directly related.
