Siblings. Not siblings.
Five children, five fathers, one mother, that is the configuration of my family. I am the youngest and the child that got to grow up with both parents throughout my childhood. I am 10+ years younger than the next child, and 16 years younger than the oldest, so I never grew up with my siblings because they lived with one of their fathers. Furthermore, I don't remember the first time that I met my sisters because they were in and out of our lives, lived in another state, and my mother was not on good terms with her ex-husband. These were things I did not understand as a child, and yet I found that I was emotionally abused because of things beyond my control.
