3rd Anecdote

Before I was born, my parents were obviously dating. They were in college and trying to get their degrees. My mom never really got along with her parents and they didn't approve of my dad. She eventually got fed up with her parents and left home to live my dad. After a while, my mom found out she was pregnant with me. I was an accident and she didn't want me at the time. The main reason was beause she was in college and couldn't take care of a kid. Both my mom and dad were broke too, so they couldn't afford a babysitter. The only option was for my mom to drop out of college and to take care of me. Abortion or adoption didn't even cross her minds. She dropped out of college so she could take care of me. My dad continued college until he got a good degree. Today my mom has four kids, including me. She doesn't have a job and never finished college. She hasn't had a job since high school. My dad can work without having to worry about us since my mom does all the work.
