i grew up as an orphan.
[{"role": "system", "content": "An orphan (from the \"\") is someone whose parents are dead, unknown, or have permanently abandoned him or her. In common usage, only a child who has lost both parents due to death is called an orphan. When referring to animals, only the mother's condition is usually relevant (i.e. if the female parent has gone, the offspring is an orphan, regardless of the father's condition). Various groups use different definitions to identify orphans. One legal definition used in the United States is a minor bereft through \"death or disappearance of, abandonment or desertion by, or separation or loss from, both parents\". In the common use, an orphan does not have any surviving parent to care for him or her. However, the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), Joint United Nations Programme on HIV and AIDS (UNAIDS), and other groups label any child that has lost one parent as an orphan. In this approach, a \"maternal orphan\" is a child whose mother has died, a \"paternal orphan\" is a child whose father has died, and a \"double orphan\" is a child who has lost both parents. This contrasts with the older use of \"half-orphan\" to describe children that had lost only one parent. Orphans are relatively rare in developed countries, because most children can expect both of their parents to survive their childhood.\n"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "i feel so bad for orphans!
