A lot of people face challenges in their life that will be there even if they don't want them. They must learn to cope with these challenges or try to make them better. Temple Grandin is the perfect example of someone who didn’t let her problems overcome her and her dreams. Regardless of her hard upbringing, Temple Grandin was one of many who grew up to make a huge difference in society. Temple was born in Boston Massachusetts.

This reveals how much more effort it took Taylor to reach out to her daughter. In Arizona she had a much more abrupt maturing into a woman and mother than if she had stayed in her hometown. Taylor had to grow up significantly faster than if she had gone through the process of pregnancy in Pittman. There, Taylor would be able to become more mentally and physically prepared for being a mother.

Christopher is not at all like Temple in this sense,
