CAMELOT FANTASIES

the story of Marilyn Monroe is fascinating and of course also tragic in so many ways.

I am reading it for the first time. she left the world too early.

I did not know she had such a tragic childhood. she was **** and abused when she was just 11 years old.

Yes, she had a very rough childhood. Did you know her mother was bi-polar or even schizophrenic? She had Marilyn at an early age and felt she wasn't strong or stable enough to raise her, so she gave her away to a family she thought would be able to do a better job than her. Not sure when the **** happened but it was bound to happen at some point, given how she was tossed around from one family to another. There are lots of freaks out there after all and it still happens in many households these days - growing in fact. Many don't even want to talk about it. Anyway, Marilyn was very afraid that she was going to get her mom's mental illness and it is said that she perhaps became one eventually, as she would be one person in front of the camera and quite another behind the camera. She also went to many doctors and was on many prescription drugs.  Despite the rough childhood, I still think she is more or less responsible for her downfall. Had she not constantly portrayed herself as a bimbo, she would have had a much better life but then again, she always seemed confused about everything. I still like her. I find her beautiful and for some reason, very innocent.
