My name is Evelyn Adzigbli, nineteen years old, the second born of four girls of my family. I was born and come from the Volta region of Ghana, now living in Tema by the help of a family in Tema. I was eight years old when my mother gave me to a family to take care of me so l was taken away from my siblings to stay with a different family in Tema. This family took care of me and my Basic Education, l stayed with them for five years, the treatment that they used to give me was over my strength, beating me, shouting at me and making me feel sad all the time, l used to feel like running away but nowhere to go, sometimes l thought of taking my own life.
