I changed jobs a few times before finally realizing that “It was the ideal of ‘book learning’; the curiosity born of compulsory ignorance,” which would lead me out of a low income life (Dubois, pdf). I felt like I did a disservice to my children who use many of the public service programs that I never qualified for while growing up. Going back to school as an adult has been easier with a more grown up mentality. I feel as though my parents’ grit and hard work has paid off in ways I can now show to my own
