living in the world of changing and the future is developing. Choosing the right career/ major for the next generation can be the most crucial task. Parents who have most experiences and full of knowledge can help their child for choosing a bright career, but the next generations also have their own skills, interest, career path, and dream.

This was going to be our new home now until my parents could figure everything out. Well for 3 of it was. My mother was going to live elsewhere. A little apartment in another part of the city. As the summer went on I learned why. It was the beginning of the end of our happy family. As the summer went…

hand done - work was essential if not the most pertinent thing. My parents both born during the time of the great depression had grown up in a very changing time in Americas history, it was a time when men were considered the head of the household, usually the breadwinners while the women stayed home and tended to the family. A time when hard work was expected, respect was demanded and traditional values were strong. Both my parents grew up poor. My mother was the…

Connie’s older sister June. This girl honestly seems like the normal one in a family that has a judgmental mother, an out of control teen age girl and a dad who could care less about what is going on in the house.

In other words, being a nurse the author has no right to push the author’s belief or ideas to the patient or their parents. Whoever holds the power of attorney has to full right, in case if the author feels that, the kid’s health is in danger then immediately needs to report it to the chain of command. Then the chain of command will report it to the hospital…

Having divorced parents is almost never an easy concept for a child to understand, and having a step parent can be even more challenging. When I first met my step father I had a hard time understanding if I was supposed to like my step father or not. My older brother, Justin, always made it apparent that Chip, my step father, somehow managed to destroy our family, so my sister and I thought that was the case. My biological father first left our family when my sister, Erin, and I were only five…
