After she talks to her mother about not being able to provide for the baby and how difficult it was to love him, she decides to give the baby to her mother to adopt and raise. I did not expect that she would return to Adam and a life of further drug
Matt now has a son, a good wife, and an ordinary life; he still has a good family life without going to university. In contrast with Kate, although she has good education and job, she doesn’t have her own family and in fact, she says, “I had never thought I would really love anyone.” (89) From another perspective, she seems to be the one that is going to have a sad life. Similar with Luke, when he rejects Sally it is due to his responsibility as a caregiver. He is happy with his decision since it is for his family. If Matt chooses to go to university instead and leaves Marie, he will most likely lose his happiness and truly be an emotionless “nerd” and suffers like Kate who does not truly knows the meaning of love.
I did not want my son to think that I just gave him away because I did not love him or want him. I know I would never have a peace of mind if I went this route. I looked through adoption profiles of couples who were hoping to adopt. All their stories broke my heart and made me wish I had a baby for each of them. I then realized once more how incredibly lucky I was to be able to have a baby and the chance to love, care, and nurture him.
My second oldest sister was never a big fan of school. She believed she was not smart enough and that school was way too hard for her. She got pregnant by the age of 19 years old; she became a young, and happy mother. Her decision of starting a family at a young age was always part of her plans; she had wanted this all along. Her choice was never based on how school made her feel but on how she felt.
They raised six kids and really did not want to raise another one; this resulted in them giving her anything her heart desired. When I read “The Lesson” I felt like the kids who were wishing they could have just one expensive toy, while she was the kid that got all the toys in the entire store. I felt like Sylvia saying, “Who are these people that spend that much for performing clowns and $1,000 for toy sailboats?” (461). Even though she was spoiled with everything but love, it took me a while to realize that what I had was far
Under the care of her grandmother, she is able to recover, but never wholly reconciles with her father because her grandmother “was never fond of Dad in the first place” (Pham 57). Chi feels safe and secure and is even reluctant to move to America because “she felt at home in Phan Thiet and she loved Grandma” (Pham 58). As Chi grows up, her new freedom allows her to become braver, and this becomes associated with her new identity as a young teenager. When Pham’s family is escaping to America, Chi shows responsibility as the oldest sibling by helping her younger brothers. “’I’ve got your bag,’ she whispered.
I also think an excellent education is crucial because it will affect my family in one way or another. It will benefit the family I have now, and the family will have in the future. I hope to support my family financially, with the great job education will help me get, and by being a role model and educator to the children I will raise. I want to be able to answer questions my children will have, to give them knowledge and a decent education for their futures too. An education would also impact the family I have now because a nice education would give me a chance to go out into the world, get a good education somewhere to live.
The mother of the Fitzgerald family, Sara, she and her husband Brian decided to create Anna, as a savior sibling for her older sister Kate who is suffering from leukemia. Although Anna is supportive to save Kate’s life seems like Sara’s decision to have Anna as a savior sibling justified. However, Anna feels isolated from her family and feels unsure about herself, and she is used as her commodities and also, she was forced to be matured more than her actual age with heavy responsibility for her family duty shows that Sara’s decision to create savior sibling is not justified. People who think it is justified to create a designer child as a savior sibling would argue that creating a savior sibling is necessary and they support this idea with the assumption that the benefit that savior sibling will provide perfect match with the patient. This will save the waiting time for a donor to be found and save the risk of a wrong match.
Enrique should have a complete family and a happy childhood as other children. But His origins took away everything belongs to him including his parents, his happy childhood, his good education and his brighter future. His father left them for another woman when he was three years old and he lived with his poor mom. In order to live and feed Enrique, Belky and his mom Lourdes went to the Unites States and to make money and send to home. I sympathize with Enrique since he lost love from his mother.
That made her love Nicky very strongly, and she accepted he did a lot of things that the three older sons never were allowed to. Nicky was spoiled, and sometimes he acted like he has known he was meant to be a girl: “I think Nicky must have known he was meant to have been a girl because when he grew up all his emphasis was in the other direction. More than any of his brothers, he was indulged like none of his brothers had been – his mother’s favourite despite, or because of not being a girl” (l. 12 to l.18). After Nicky’s death in a young age, Nicky’s parents have to make difficult decisions, and it becomes clear that the mother is the strongest of them – mentally. The father, Frank Randall, does not have the strength to step forward and say what he thinks they should do with his sons heart: “Twenty-five years of being in charge of 400 acres and all that lived on it, generations of Randalls ruling the roost, of which he was the latest heir, hadn’t made him capable at that moment of being the one to step forward and speak” (l.122 to l.125).
