I certainly didn't mature faster than those around me, made secondary school life a living hell. I had the exact opposite. I didn't start puberty till I was about 16 and only got my periods when I was late 17. Odd considering the women in my family all started their periods between 11 and 13. I had ...

I was 16. I moved out of my parents home into support accomodation as I wasn't old enough to hold a tenancy on my own.

My p...

I can't drive, wish I could but it's not going to happen. I'm not allowed due to having problems with judging speed and distance. I frequantly walk out infront of vehicles because I just can't seem to judge a safe distance so you can imagine the hell I'd cause in a car... I'd prefer a bike as I reme...
