“If both of your parents are drowning, which one would you save first?” It was something I also saw when I watched television shows. I knew it was a joke and I didn’t take it too seriously. Both of my parents are so caring and would do anything for their three children. They are two of the most kind-hearted and talented people that I know and I am who I am today because of them. However, differences come with similarities. Despite being alike in certain perspectives, my parents are both very…

The Camping Cat I woke up bright and early I couldn’t wait to go camping in Ventura. Me and my brothers (Samuel and Misa) packed our clothes and put on our shoes. We took our clothes and put it in the Blue Trail Blazer. My brothers sat in the back and I sat up front. As usual my mom called my aunt Rhonda and told her we are on our way. We stopped at Kum & Go we got drinks and some breakfast pizza. It was a long drive especially since my brothers were fighting, I tried sleeping it didn’t help so…

wanted to be just like my older brother in everything I did and my Mom and Dad were my biggest role models. Yet as I grew older my roles models and influences changed. My friends at school started to impact my decisions more than my siblings and parents. I think that was only natural for me to grow apart from my brothers, being that I am the only girl.

From the time I realized what love was, I was a child, as I am now, at age 17. I was granted this precious endowment from the most perpetual person in my life. This gift is given to me from a person whom I honorable call, my mother.To most, she is just an ordinary woman, but I know otherwise. She is the epitome of what many would consider their idol, role model or hero. Untouchable in comparison, inspiration is an understatement to describe her, no words can. She makes me see and understand…

For this reason, it explains why most of grandparents seen living with their children which is very different in the west. In article XV, section 4, the constitution further explains…

This is because one child may be good at something while another might be good at something else and such a competition creates an undue pressure on the child and his parents.

This creates a lot of stress in the mind of the child and he/she may lose focus…

Since my birth on March 31, 1997, there have been many events that have shaped me to be the person I am today. There have been exciting events, and there have been some events that have shaken me to the core, but I know without a doubt that I would not be the person I am today had any of these events not occurred. As a little girl, I was painfully shy, and I did my best to stay out of the spotlight. My timid personality allowed others to form opinions about how social I was going to be when I…

Many kids nowadays know the feeling of being left alone by their parents. They have unstable influences on them, and have sometimes difficulties telling them what's right and what's wrong. Parents handle situations differently, that can come from life experiences and childhood and even their own upbringing and that has for a fact a big influence on their own children. Parents are very good at reflecting on episodes or stages in their life, and that reflection gets sometimes put in perspective…
