In this chapter, I discuss with my mother the challenges of teen pregnancy and motherhood. How she faced and overcame the judgment of family members. This is her story of perseverance, truth, understanding, and growth. I hope that you enjoy.

I do not own the interpretation of the music used in this chapter.
