Child Autobiography

Improved Essays
I was born on July 1 to a mother who loved me dearly and a father who was not active in my life at that time. During this time, my mother was facing a lot of medical issues that restricted her from breastfeeding me. I don’t remember much about the earliest parts of childhood, but all I can remember is what has been told to me over the years. I was always told that I was a short little chunky baby who had to get hair bows taped to my hair, so others could know if I was a girl or a boy. From the pictures that was taken and collected over the years of me, I was a happy, healthy child even when things were not always perfect; my mother sheltered me from a lot of negativity that would come her way, she allowed me to live a life that I was a child and could act as a child.
For as long as I could remember, I was always an active child. No I did not play any sports, but I was always dancing around, climbing up trees, and playing outside with the other kids in the neighborhood.

Things seemed easier for me to understand, this continued until my freshman year of college. When I was in the 7th grade, my biological father won custody of me and he force me to move to North Carolina with him. This transition was weird to me, because I really did not know much of him but only the things I experience since he came into my life after my mother passed. Once we moved, I found out that he was married to this lady that I would soon begin to love and look up to as a mother. My “mom” was an angel to me, because there were times where I wanted to place harm on myself from all the pain my father was placing us through. During this time, I watched him hurt her in ways that made me become an angry teenager. There was always the fear that he would hurt the one person that filled a void that roamed within my heart and

    It was 5:15 in the morning, and my mother had just finished giving birth to a healthy, 7 pound, baby girl—me. After I was born, my mother had to fend me off from dozens of nurses, who all wanted to hold me and take a look at me. My mother said that I was the chubbiest and cutest baby she had ever seen. My father and mother both cried tears of joy right after I was born. Apparently, I was the only girl to have been born in that hospital that whole night/morning.…

    Surrounded by a team of nurses, one doctor, and what seemed to be a grouping of blinding lights, I had a peculiar moment of serenity. I can’t quite explain whether it was the epidural or the fact that for twelve hours my body was engulfed by excruciatingly painful contractions which seemed to be attacking me in a sporadic manner, but in that one moment everything was perfect. Somehow I just let go off every single fear I had, I just remembered that in any moment there would be an extraordinary occurrence. Although a natural part in many women’s lives, since the beginning of time, it was a phenomenon in my life.…

    I am the oldest child. I have two younger siblings who I love unconditionally, but life as the oldest child is not the picnic most people think it is. I know this probably sounds cliché, becoming who I am because of my siblings, but it is the truth without them I would not be the person I am today. When I was four years old my mother became pregnant with my sister. My sister, Madison was born seven months before I turned five.…

    For my second entry of my integrative report I had another one-on-one interaction with Jacob, the three-year-old boy from my last entry. Jacob is a false name I will be using throughout this report for confidentiality purposes. This visit was very similar to my last visit as I babysat at the home of the child and we visited the park down the street. Much like the last time we played in the basement, which had lots of toys to play with and a television. Jacob is part of a traditional nuclear family as he has both a biological mother and father who he is dependent on (Shaffer, Kipp, Wood, & Willoughby, 2013, pg.…

    Education and Me Education, a thing we fought to have is now discouraging students to learn. All this starts once we start school. At first it is great you’re doing good, meeting new people and then you get homework handed to you to which you think to yourself what is this? What am I supposed to do with this? From the day, I first started school, I have always had trouble learning.…

    When I first learned about and became interested in becoming a child life specialist, I started volunteering at Kanagawa Children's Medical Center in Yokohama, Japan as a high school volunteer. I communicated with diverse populations, including Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Russian, and many other populations using two languages, Japanese and English. I started learning sign language to improve my communication skills. I provided activities and play with children, siblings, and families while they waited at the hospital, and that helped me understand cultural, religious, and individual diversity. For example, I implemented origami activity with the patient and the parents from Russia, and it promoted the cultural competency in the hospital setting.…
