As I’m typing this post, I’m thinking about my son graduating high school soon. – with all my excitement you’d think he was graduating from Harvard. You see, he should have graduated in May but I’m thankful he’s graduating at all. For the past 4 years I have pushed, pulled and drug him thru High School….Damn I’m tired. He is a handful, but a mothers love will endure and make us do things that others often scoff at. Several people have told me to let him fail, he’ll have to figure it out for himself. I do agree with this sentiment however I also realize that without at least a High School Diploma he had absolutely no chance and would probably never see the inside of a school again. At least since he’s graduated high school perhaps he can begin to realize the benefits of education.
I’m definitely encouraging him to go to college, but he’ll have to drag himself thru that. Moma’s tired.
