dysfunctional family blues

Sam Adams grew up in a dysfunctional family
An emotionally distant father who did not get him
Two siblings who hated him later became jealous
That he became more successful than them
An alcoholic bipolar mother
A younger baby sister and older half-sister he barely knew
Two degenerate criminal half-brothers he did not want to ever meet
Emotional physical abuse is part of growing up
