She was very easily influenced, she started doing narcotics when she was twelve years old, and had me when she was fifteen years old, as a result of these actions she was kicked out of my grandfather’s house. She did not finish high school, had been incarcerated four times, and has poor judgement when it comes to men. One of her men molested my younger sister, which caused my sister and I to be wards of the state. I am under strict rules and regulations of the state because of someone else’s actions, at any point and time I could have been uprooted from my family and taken to a foster family or a group home because of someone else’s actions. My immediate family took the necessary classes to become foster parents so we would not have to go through that turmoil. Some of my family members thought that when I got older, I would be just like my mother. If I listened to every comment that was made for my defeat, instead of deciding within myself that failure was not an option. I looked at my mother as an example of what not to do. My mother had lost her identity and had no motivation to get it
