Education of Mom

by Brenda Kisrow
(Phoenix, AZ)

Sherry, the minor daughter, has many issues, which stem from during early childhood traumas. However, we've been working through these, without any child support payments for more than 2 years.

On the bright side, from our experiences, including living in shelters, and other tentative housing situations, Sherry worked her way out of special ed classes, through motivation while watching mom go to college, and making herself a better person, and helping in the community; Sherry has risen in self esteem and stature.

We now share our experience, in a positive light, at shelters, encouraging other mother's to enter into college, not just for them, but listening to sherry's story, for the benefit of their children.

Continuing our educational goals benefits self, society, and most of all who are those close to us, especially our children. They watch so closely what we do, and how we act.

Dwelling on the negatives only hurts everyone; seeing beyond where we are only gives encouragement. We'd love to share that with everyone whom struggles day to day, trying to go on, without any support. Even though we greatly struggle, we can do it ourselves, and this does make us stronger. When we struggle with a positive attitude, our children become stronger and positive individuals, willing to take on responsibilities for them and assist other in need.

Education of Mom encourages daughter... and others

Thank you for the opportunity to share our story
