      one day dogs will take over I couldn’t have said it better myself. Let’s use this for example - suicide, people make jokes about it and it’s a very serious subject and should not be taken light heartedly. But as the majority of us know, our generation revolves around the media and fads, trends. As time changes so do people.

      Tigre de Bengala You’re right, she is irresponsible! CPS finally got involved when I was 10 because she wasn’t living with me, I was living with her other kids and her boyfriend who I called “dad” he wasn’t my dad though my dad passed away when I was 1. She only showed up at her boyfriend house when I received my checks in the mail because of my fathers accident. She’s spent all of my trust fund money and it’s hard to forgive her because she’s put me through so much yet I still feel bad for her because the reason she’s like that is because she never had a mom that was there for her either.

      Sounds better when you say Xbox. It has nothing to do with Xbox being better, the word Xbox just flows better than PS4.

    Shes a really good person and it shows. I just wanna give her so many hugs. I feel very proud of her, even though I do know her personally. I'm so glad she agreed to tell her story so BuzzFeed could share it with us. Thank you!!! :)

    Awe, keep pushing! It's not easy, but you made it! I pray she stays on the good side of the law.
    She's right about most people looking for that one chance, but society and socioeconomic structures make it almost impossible... Praying y'all stay safe and stay smart 💘🙏🏾 God protect you all
