Night Essay #4: Father Fatima Solano 5th pd. Many people perceive their parents as a role model and a guardian. In addition, a son looks at his father as a hero and the biggest example in their life. However, when a father is overcome by sickness, sadness, and hunger, the relationship between a father and son starts to deteriorate.…
Have you ever had someone that sticks with you side by side no matter what? Well I had and actually still do. That person is my dad. Who has brought me to realize that he is personally my Michigan hero throughout my 13 years of existence. What is the most amazing about my dad is his devotion to my sporting events.…

My dad leaving never really affected me so much when I was small I mean I was just a lost small girl getting my way through life; or at least that’s what I thought till I found out the truth. Growing up without my real father didn’t really affect me since I never put my mind to it and I had my uncle who was like a father to me. My uncle took care of me when I was a baby, he always took me out on Halloween, fed me and everything till a certain…
Him and my mother married when I was three years old, and that is when he really took on the role and became my dad. I still saw my biological father every other weekend and on holidays, up until I was eighteen, but I never had a real father daughter relationship with him. There were many weekends that he would not pick me up for his visits, or he would even go months without seeing or talking to me. On the weekends that I did see him, he would spend most of his time either working or going out with his girlfriend or current wife at the time. I could spend days telling all of the horrible memories I have of my biological father, but I have two strong memories that will always remind me of the type of relationship I had with him.…
Throughout my life I have always been a daddy’s girl. I would beg my dad to take me hunting, fishing, golfing, to work, and just about anywhere my dad went I wanted to go. We had a close bond until he was diagnosed with stage 3 liver and colon cancer during my senior year of high school. I was devastated by the news since the doctors had given my father about 6 months to live. To top it off, it was the first year I was able to attend a Mardi Gras ball and that year I was supposed to walk my dad out since he was a masker who rode in the organization’s parade.…
It seemed as if my father didn’t know how to properly communicate with me. For example, if I were to do something inappropriate at school my father would always yell and fuss with me. Instead of talking with me rationally and discussing what went wrong. I never felt that I could go to my father and talk about anything. It seemed as if me and my father never had a bond.…
Barriers and adversity are two things that shape people and their lifestyles. Like any other person, I’ve had my fair share of problems. However, my biggest burden has been the fact that no matter how much my father wishes to be in my life, he can’t. On May 25, 1995, my father was imprisoned in Mexico. I’ve only heard his voice in phone calls and seen him in pictures.…
My personal Michigan hero is my father. For this essay I chose my father because all my life I have looked up to him, even when I was too young to realize it, because my dad has guided me through life, teaching me valuable life lessons and will always be there for me and my family. My dad has changed so much in his life for my brother and I, spent hours for a day for years raising us to be the people we are today and I could never repay that. At a young age my father’s parents divorced, and he did not see his real father often because he was in the Coast Guard. He then vowed at a young age, and then to his future wife(my mother) that he would never divorce and do that if he had children.…
I grew up knowing death too well. I was sort of like a modern day Lydia Deetz. Both my parents were morticians and they recall me talking to corpses and singing to the stillborns. I of course didn’t marry a demon but I did happen to wear a lot of black and fully understand death and both it’s beauty…
She would tell me how I had his eyes and laugh, how my personality was the same as his. All of the stories I was told are constantly running through my head, and I always think about how lucky I was to have a father that was so wonderful. Even though I did not know him long, with all of the stories I was told, I have his picture in my…
There was only one word on my mind and it was DAD. I screamed hysterically and cried in the bathroom, screaming for my dad. Nothing was the same if he did not come to my birthday. If you had asked my mother, she would have described me as a gnat. I was constantly asking her every few minutes, when my dad was going to be there.…
I decided to write about my relationship with my dad in this post because Father’s Day just passed and because I’ve already made a post about the incredible bond I have with my dad. In that post I mentioned that he was away in Korea when I was born and I didn’t get to see him until I was 7 months old. My mother, who was only 22 at the time, had a lot of responsibility taking care of the three of us who were all under 3 years old. When my dad came home he took over the caregiving duties for me completely because he wanted to make sure he bonded with me. There was a solid attachment built between the two of us at that time that has been tested over time but never frayed.…
My father strives to push me to achieve well in anything that I decide to do. High school was a struggle for me, but my dad…
If you would have told me that I was similar to my mother, I would have raised my eyebrows in confusion and completely disagreed. In fact, I probably would have been offended and questioned the reasoning behind that conclusion. My mom has always been one of the strongest women I know. Despite the adversity of being a woman in her field, she continuously approaches her work with the unique ambition that always produces success.…
