The source that I chose to research was “Parents in prison and their minor children” by Glaze, L.E., &Maruschak, L.M. Glaze discusses the number of child who are under the age of 18 and have parents who are in prison. “An estimated 809,800 prisoners of the 1,518,535 held in the nation’s prisons at midyear 2007 were parents of minor children, or children under age 18” (Glaze L.E, & Maruschak L.M, 2008).

Both of my parents are the first born and got married at a young age, so my brother and I had the pleasure of being the first for EVERYTHING. He took the title of the first grandchild along with grandson, while I had granddaughter. We didn’t stay by ourselves very long, after I was born, one year later we added one more boy, then three more years another one, which was great, but I hated being the only girl.
