Amy Fisher Tells Her Story
About her personal growth process, Amy "looks back on those dark times and I never thought I'd get to the place I am today. The 'Long Island Lolita' is not really who I am."
A 30-year-old mother of a 3-year-old son and a baby on the way, Amy is happily married to a man she met through the Internet.
When it comes to talking to her children about her past, Amy feels she'll be able to be honest. "No parent ever wants to think their child could view them as a bad person. When the time comes and my son asks me about my past, I'm going to be honest with him. All I can do is explain to him that everybody has a past and all we can do is learn from our mistakes and be a better person. We've all done things we're not proud of, but that doesn't define who we are."
