English IV/Journal #1

This is Response Journal #1. "When people keep telling you that you can't do a thing, you kind of like to try it.''--Margaret Chase Smith


I remember at the age of 10 when my mother first started to talk to me about sex. She would tell me not to have sex and be abstinent. Her reason was, if you have sex you can get pregnant and end up not graduating. 

Fast forward 4 years later, I did get pregnant. Not that I was trying, it just happened. When my mother found out, she said, "Oh you messed up your entire future and you are not going to be successful in life.''


 Now, I have a 3 year old son and I'm in my last year of school, I am number one in my class, and I am eager to graduate. I will become successful, and I will tell my Mother,  ''WHAT NOW''!!!
