So my mama meets this guy and she just has sex with him and gets pregnant with her first child which my mama knew then she would have to get a job so she gets a job as a warehouse worker and she does well on the job takes care of her one child and she did have a girl and name her Sandra. Then while on the job my mom meets this guy name John and he took such good care of her loved her and treated her like a woman and that made her felt so good. but then she start noticing that he works too much and he don''t have time for her and she does not appreciate that it makes her eventually feel as if she isn't important and then she meets this other guy who also treats him good but she told him that she was in a relationship but they can be friends and then she gets pregnant by john and have twins by him which were both girls and then she finally realizes that he don't spend no time with the kids either because his job, so she leaves him for the other guy name Andrew and they stay together for about two years and get married then she gets pregnant by him and have a girl which is me then later along the line she has four more kids by him which in total 5 kids by him but she has 8 kids in total; 6 girls and two boys and then he starts doing crack and mistreats her, he starts hitting on her and not coming home every night then his money was being spent fast and she finds out on prostitutes and then all this happen for years until she finally tells him that she is leaving and getting her own place for just her and the kids which she did and she kept her job and raised all eight of us by herself and she raises us up to not have kids with just anybody and to get married before we have sex and of course none of us listens to her and we have sex and kids and two of us get married and have kids by these sorry men and now we are working on our divorce.
