Just the other day I found out someone I know was moving out of their parents house at just sixteen, which is a very young age to go out to the real world.

He has to take on the responsibility of taking care of his half sister, he doesn't know who his real father is, he justlives with his mom and half sister,they don't have alot of money Gerald was abused as a kid, and he doesn't have much family at all. This made Gerald a very strong boy physically and mentally. This made him very responsible at a very young age which will come in handy when he gets older. I believe Gerald is one of the few people when they have a hard childhood turn out to be great people.
