Publisher's Synopsis
'I Don't Have What They Said I Had' tells the heartbreaking true story of Julian, a healthy boy whose life is forever changed by his mother's manipulative actions. By falsifying parental authority, his father disappears from the picture and, through false diagnoses, Julian is placed in an institution for the mentally disabled. The book follows Julian's struggle to uncover the truth and reclaim his identity. With the support of his father and his father's new wife, he begins a challenging journey to free himself from his mother's destructive grip. When she abuses him again, he cuts off all contact with her. Despite numerous attempts through the legal system and child protective services, justice remains elusive-the authorities believe her lies. "This gripping story not only reveals one boy's struggle against injustice, lies, and parental manipulation, but also painfully exposes how systems meant to protect can fail."
