She did not want to control every move or every decision that I made, but she did not want me having all the freedom in the world. I had rules that I had to reside by, just as her own children did. I respect the parenting style that she chose to raise me with. Now back in the hands of my mom, she has chose to use the permissive parenting style. She believes that I am to learn from my own mistakes and decisions. She has also supported me in all the decisions I have made. She is there to pick me up when I fall and encourage me when I need guidance. I respect her choice of parenting more than ever.

I think I am a step ahead of some others my age because I have had to learn so much on my
