Hope, Healing and Happiness in Trauma Recovery

What’s a moment when you realized you were officially an adult?

I got pregnant at a young age. I had my daughter a month before my 18th birthday. My senior year of high school I accelerated. Being on the A honor roll for the first time ever.

I became an adult when I became pregnant with my daughter. Her biological father wasn’t up for the task himself, so I handled much of the child rearing myself.

Along with myself, I had the support of my best friend’s parents. They took me in and watched my daughter while I finished high school and got my certificate for legal secretary at the local college.

If it weren’t for my best friend’s parents I would have been doing life on my own. My own parents kicked me out of the house. Their excuse was my mother was pregnant as well, so there was no room in the house for another baby. Not knowing what to do next was a very grown up experience.
