I know my parents don't push me towards security because they don't love me. I know they love me, they have always pushed me towards security because they've been through war, famine and poverty. The idea of doing something that you love, is incredibly foreign to my parents. They didn't get to do what they loved, they had to do what they could to stay alive. It's taken so many conversations with my parents to help them truly understand that we no longer live in such a dangerous place. After years of connecting, talking and listening - I was able to open my mum and dad's way of thinking. About 4 years ago my dad comes up to me and said something that truly moved me... He said.. "Son, thanks for not giving up on your dreams and thanks for not giving up on us. Thank you for being patient and helping your mother and I understand this new world." The relationship we have with our parents is one of the most special relationships. Don't give up on them, just because they don't immediately support you in your dreams - take the time to talk with them, explain to them, listen to them and be patient with them.

A 9-year-old in San Antonio, Texas, had minor injuries after the child was told to move a car and drove it in reverse before losing control and was flung out of the driver's seat. Ladeja Pickett, 25, allegedly asked the child, who is not hers, to move her car out of the driveway as she was decorating for Christmas on Nov. 9, according to local reports. Pickett was later arrested and charged with injury to a child and child endangerment. The child had a laceration to their forehead and road rash to one of their legs.
