This had to have been very hard for her to do. I wish her the best in her job as a mother and her career.
I can somewhat relate as my wife lost a battle with breast cancer at 28 and I became Mr Mom to 2 girls, 4 and 1.
Somehow, I completed by BS and MBA - the latter with national honors (top 1%). Not sure I could ever do that again as I recall getting 3-4 hours of sleep over a 3-4 year period.
I truly admire these people who overcome tough odds.
And here I thought it was going to be another Elizabeth Warren or Kamela Harris story.
At 21 she’s some kind of psychologist? Gotta feel sorry for whomever ends up her patient.
Here in the U.S. of A. pregnant teens attending high school are commonplace. If they have to leave then GED, night school and/or other accommodations are readily available. Ain’t life in the U.S. of A a wonderful thing!
My hat is off and I am applauding her accomplishment. Not an easy task to be sure. Hopefully she will be rewarded with a man she can love for life who will be an excellent provider for her and her daughter. 8>)
Well at least she can afford those tattoos.
Did she have have a tattoo?
Wow..man!! Good job!!
That’s an odd thing to say....
Beautiful girl with hideous forearm tattoos.
That limits the work options.
You’ve got a problem with that?
Most likely to rape the little girl. She should not be dating/marriage(unless the bio father does this) until her daughter is 18 and moved on. Dr. Laura professes this for a reason.
I wonder if she was kicked out of a religious private school? I don’t think public schools do this anymore.
The moral of the story is get pregnant early, be unmarried and you can be a success too. Get a degree in welfare State counseling and be a burden on the State.
All news to degrade society. As though taxpayers do not struggle through life.
This is news?
At least in the US, this is ALL TOO commonplace.
Sorry, but while it’s good if she can rectify her life (which she has dragged an innocent child into), there NEEDS to be more shame for extramarital sex. NOT on the school for kicking her out for immorality. Needs to be done MORE.
The world is turned upside down.
On an individual level, this is a good story. It is especially true if it was her family and her hard work that provided for the costs of daycare and schooling. I admire her work.
But, these stories are published for at least one additional reason - that is to show that a man is not really needed. The notion that a woman can do it all without a man is screaming out from this story. That is a bad lesson and undercuts the one of the best aspects of our culture: the importance of an intact nuclear family andmen in general. Never mind that the resources of men in part subsidize and facilitate many of the activities of “independent” women. The father was not mentioned one time in the article.
Just my opinion.
Show me the news story of all the men who support their children but CPS forbids them to see.
The forgotten man supporting his child but denied visitation.
Those are the true heros.
When that woman is denied seeing her kid, for decades, then she has really struggled.
