Personal Narrative: How My Son Changed My Life
I am more than just a normal college student. I am also a young black teenage mother. As a young black teenage mother, I have learned to grow up quick. The things that I have learned the fastest were to nurture, care, and to protect my son, Jaylen. These were the three basic instincts that I have had since the day I first saw him.
