I'm seriously considering a name change, both first and last name. But I thought about it and I don't want to deal with the massive paperwork issues, especially when it comes to citizenship papers and fact that I got citizenship status derived from my mother's naturalization. I'm not sure if a name change would cause troubles.

Should I do it just for spite?

Changed the fuck out of it. I go the extra mile and destroy as many childhood pictures of me that I can find as well, and any proof I existed as a child. They clearly did not want another child, and only catered to their actually wanted children.

If you don't want a fucking burden then don't raise one. Maybe raise your child to be independent if you want an independent child instead of reducing them to some stupid fake shit and literally not allowing them to grow and blaming their stagnation on that stupid fake shit. Yeah I remember when trying to do things on my own was being a Bad Kid but being a dependent burden was a problem as well. Yeah washing my own face to avoid having family wash it with toilet water was being bad, but so was needing someone to fucking wash my face for me. Right.

And on top of that you're going to name me some stupid fake african weeaboo bullshit because I have special color skin? Fuck off. I'm American and I will give myself an American name to reflect my American heritage as an American born in the United States of America to parents born in the United States of America. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ It's my flag too bitch.
