Have you heard or has someone told you, you are NOT cool because you attended or are attending community college? 

Well, that seems to be the big question. Attending community college is a smart move and its also an economically savvy way to not be in loan debt.

So, follow me and explore this stigma so we can eliminate from our lives and not let society dictate us where we should go.

As a Latino teen/young adult our parents put in place the responsibilities and chores we had to stand by. This helped me become a more responsible adult growing up and now. 

Did you have chores growing up?

Did your parents make you pay rent? or a bill?

that was me! so join me and let's talk about your upbringing and let me know your thoughts!

Stay safe my friends!

Your host Jay Perez
