I am a african american and thailand single mother of two boys. I been through alot of struggles and hardships in life just to name a few things, I been homeless living on the streets with my older son, I became pregnant at 16, I've been in the system, my mom doesn't love me as a mother should, she tries to hide the fact that I'am mixed with black, so she doesn't have no contact with me or my children. She always says that I do not embrace her side of her culture, I tried to tell her that if she would have raised me it would have been different so therefore I can not help to embrace the black side of me. Even though I'am 31 and accomplished not what I really want but some, I feel that I have too share my story of how God and my children help me to keep me keeping on. I'am back in school to get a B.S in famiy studies, hopefully next year I'll be done. It has been very hard. When I get through I hope to work in a field where I can help other young single mothers who gave up hope.
