While she home schooled her 4 daughters, Shelia knew she had some explaining to do about sex and boys. This is when she came up with the idea to write a book about dysfunctional families in the form of a workbook, diary, and phonebook. Shelia watched her mom struggle to raise six kids alone. Shelia knew that although her mom loved them very much and gaved them everything that other kids had on the block her mom was never able to be there because of having to work. Shelia begin to write about her pain of raising herself. She came up with the idea that dysfunction starts when you are not married and you open up your legs to have sex for the wrong reason. Living in a hood that was infested with child molesters, drug dealers and drunks she was forced to deal with it all on her own. So she decided to teach her girls and other girls that might be living on the street who was forced to raise themselves how to raise themselves instead of their legs.
