Misguided Childhood

There are lots of ways to steer a child wrong. Whether it is the misguided direction from a parent, or the neglect, or simply the child finding their own trouble with their friends, it doesn't take much before an entire childhood has been misguided.

I fell victim to such a thing. I wasn't misguided by my parents, or my brother, or for the most part, not even my friends. I was sometimes misguided by my own mind, but that isn't the point. Their was a much more troublesome influence on my life.

Television. Not television in the, I needed to watch less of it kind of sense, but I was misguided by television by being warped into handing my life over to the direction of possibly the most heinous Hollywood figure to ever exist.

The bandage on my knee and shirt on my back go to prove, nobody should trust their kids with the Hasselhoff. Not even through the popular influence of Knight Rider. Don't let the smile fool you, this time of life obviously warped me for the worse.
