As yall know, I am a tween who attends an upscale private school with an emphasis on the performing & liberal arts. The tuition there is close to what some dumb people pay for a semester at their state university/community college. My parents aren't the wealthiest people--fortunately I am on scholarship at this school. Sometimes I don't fit in with all of the other rich, entitled kids, but it makes me work harder to be the best without the cushion of rich parents.
My mom is a little bit on 'the free spirited side.' She is one of the most active parents at school, and has formed many relationships with teachers and leaders of on campus organizations. I h8 to say this, but I am kinda embarrassed when we drive up to school in our old mini van, and then when my mom gets off the car sometimes. I feel poorer than the rest of the kids when I am doing a good job of fitting in, even though I don't have all of the tools 2 fit in that other kids have. Wish my parents made more money. Want 2 fit in
Just sux. I 'love' my mom, but at the same time, kinda wish she would realize how important a personal brand is, even when ur a tween.
Just do me a favor and drop me off a block away from school, mom. If u loved me, u'd understand.
