I will jump in on this, I apologize in advance as I can get lengthy talking about my kids but will try to refrain somewhat lol.
I have 3 kids all adult aged now and one granddaughter:
Daughter 29, played basketball in high school, would cry if she made anything less than an A, got pregnant early on in college, worked and finished college while being a single mom, her “baby daddy” was killed in an auto accident she went on and graduated from East Carolina University with honors and also completed her Master’s in Occupational Therapy Program, works as an Occupational Therapist in the school system with Pre-K and Elementary aged kids. Purchased a nice house in a good place to raise my granddaughter.
Daughter 27, ran track in high school, would also cry if she made less than an A, graduated from Clemson University then went to Florida State for her Masters, with honors, is a huge animal lover and advocate. She’s a workaholic who works two jobs and at times more so that she can fund her obsession with traveling domestically and internationally as often as she can.
Son 22, had speech impediment as a child (sounded like scooby doo) wife and I had to battle school early on to assure he didn’t get labeled or lost in the cracks. Overcame that and is a very articulate speaker now, probably the smartest of the 3 BUT could care less in school about this grades, local football star, track record holder for 200m at this school, EXCELLED in college grades wise, community work/volunteered and mentored at risks youth (like a switch finally flipped or something) Graduated from East Carolina University this past summer. Currently working for an IT Consulting Firm as his first “adult gig”
All worked during their high school and college years as well.
Here’s a pic of my granddaughter on my old Busa 6 years ago.
; she also drives my truck in my lap pretty good. Straight A's this year, highest reading grade in her class. Look at those blue eyes...
