Family Narrative Essay

Even tho many are lucky to have their parents together and grow up in one family that was altogether, I was lucky to grow in a divorced family and I say lucky because I have become stronger because of this situation and even tho I have become stronger, I have also learned to cut off the slack off myself. I grew up with 3 older male siblings and we were not the type to get along and share, some of us would help each other and the older tell the younger how to survive through different circumstances but I was left out.

Growing up I was not the luckiest person. My parents created me to fix their relationship, that did not work out of course. So obviously they got a divorce, but they got a divorce three days before my second birthday.

Families are involved in their children’s learning through many different means. Parents are greeted by the kindergarten teachers at morning drop off and at the end of the day for dismissal and if any information needs to be disclosed or discussed the teachers and parents will take that opportunity to communicate with each other. Communication to families is also done through letters that go home whenever there is important information that needs to be shared. This works successfully for the parents who have nannies or relatives drop off and pick up their children. In this case, when face to face contact is not being made with

I'm very grateful to have a family that loves me! When the whole family is together, it makes me feel safe, like nothing awful can happen to me; when we are all together they make things easier. My family treats not only me, but others with respect. I always try to avoid thinking about what would happen to me if I didn't have a family. I feel when most people come to think of it, it makes you wonder. Who would you be today? Where would you be today? How would you grow up? It's always those things that get to you. In my opinion, it's safe to say we are all very lucky to be in the country we are in. However, these people include; parents, grandparents, and sister.

My personal narrative has to do with my journey alongside my family in an event that we all faced. When I was in fourth grade my father got cancer. I am not over protective of the fact that he did, in fact I am quite open on the subject. If they haven’t forgotten, then my friends know, and classmates at the time did know. In this way it is very personal, but also a shared story. As I stated earlier, my father got cancer when I was in fourth grade. This can certainly be considered an unusual childhood. I do not think that many children have had their parents go through cancer when they were around this age. My family spent lots of time in this situation. We were open with this fact, and people had helped us. My fourth grade class

The word migration can have a very different meaning to each individual. In the dictionary it is defined as the movement of people from one country or locality to another. I now see the word with such a deeper meaning no only is it the group of people moving, but in fact how they moved and the struggles they had to go through. Before I sat down with both of my parent and asked them about my “roots” I had no idea how difficult migration from Mexico to the US was for both of my parents families. I never took the time to listen to little details on how exactly they ended up in this country. After I took the time to listen to my elder relatives and parents talk about how they use to

Mr. Sava is the father of one female child. The age and the residence of the child is unknown. Although he wants a relationship with his daughter at the current time, he does not have contact with this child due to an active restraining order that was implemented due to domestic violence against the child’s mother, his now ex-girlfriend. He acknowledges the ex-girlfriend will not allow him to see his daughter and speaks negatively about her throughout the interview.

Everything was about to change, we wouldn’t order take-out on Sundays, it was a big deal, I was losing my best friend, the only father figure I have ever had so far. I watched him taking all of his stuff out of the apartment, I was getting more and more mad. Wasn’t our beautiful relationship enough to make him stay? I even blame myself I thought I had done something wrong, maybe wearing his clothes and leaving them all messy, I apologize and swear not to do it again, but it didn’t matter the decision was already made.

Tourism plays a big role in Mount Rushmore’s popularity. More than 3 million people visit the monument each year. Their busiest months are June, July and August. Getting into the park is free; only parking costs money. Pets are allowed in about half the park; while service dogs are allowed all throughout the park. A lot of people visit the Sculptor's studio, a studio that was made for Gutzon Borglum as he worked, is now a small museum for the monument and is very popular.

My family of five shattered into pieces in 2014 and changed my life forever. My parents had separated, which led my mom to renting out a duplex nearby, until just last December when we moved into a house. With my dad “working” night shift at the post office and putting alcohol above the three of us kids, we stayed at moms a majority of the time. My mom left for work around 6am every morning so she would wake us all up about 5:45 every morning so we could get dressed for school and be dropped off at our dads to catch the bus an hour later. That hour in the morning, which was spent mostly sleeping on the couch, was the only interaction we had with our dad since he was still in a stage of depression. During this period, dad rarely ever attended any school or sport events and separated himself. The alcohol started before the divorce. I remember I received 4 concert tickets to see my favorite band, at the time. I asked my cousin, Lauren, and friend Jordyn to come along with my dad and I. That night, my father slipped away to the bar and when he came back to the seats drunk he grabbed my arm and pulled me rows ahead. Security took my dad out of the venue then came back to get my friends and I. Emblem3 had just came to the stage and I will forever blame my father for ruining my 14th birthday from getting us kicked out of the concert.

Over the past years of my life, many things have changed, including my friends, lifestyle, religious beliefs and jobs. With everything constantly changing around me, there is one thing that has always stayed the same: my family. When I think about my most blissful moments in life, they all involve my family. My relationship with my parents, brother, husband and children is something that I learn to treasure more and more every day. There are many significant things in my life, but the most important relationship to me is family.

I remember our last goodbye, the last words exchanged, the ending of something beautiful. People you care about have big impacts on who you turn out to be. They guide you, teach you, protect you, love you, hurt you, but most importantly they are there for you. He was gone before I could even blink. And left me all alone. But family helped me through this journey and one day I hope to help others like others have helped me.

No one can’t meet a family like mine’s. My family is well diversified. Every family member plays an important role in all my family’s lives. In my family, there are four people: my father, my mother, my little brother and me. My father is one who brings money home and is also responsible for organizing and planning family trips. My mother is the one who is in charge for making meals and makes sure everyone eats at the appropriate times. My little brother is the pet of the family. He actually doesn’t have any responsibilities, for he’s the pet. I am the rock of support in my family. I always go beyond my parents’ expectations. I also support my younger cousins and little brother, by being a role model that they can look up to. Another
