...Every little girl's dream is to have both her mother and father in their life. To cherish every single moment with her parents, create memories, and to reminisce about all the times they had. It was always my wish to have both Mommy and Daddy in my life, but my story is different. At the age of seventeen my mother gave birth to a beautiful baby girl and named her Niah Dominique Cummings. Growing up, I knew for a fact that I had my mother in my life, but I hardly ever saw my father. I came to my senses that there was no father. My mother finally filled me in and told me that my father had moved to Atlanta, Georgia two days after I was born. Which basically meant he was not there the day I was born. It was heartbreaking to hear, but I had to face it. I didn't know what it felt like to have that father figure in my life. To have Daddy tuck me in at night, telling me every day how beautiful I was, to give me kisses on the cheek or forehead, to drop me off at school every morning, or to even tell me that I was his little princess. All I had was my mother, who had struggled since she was sixteen years old. The year before I was born my mother gave birth to a handsome, talented, intelligent, and smart young man. She named him Kazre Lamont Cummings. He is my older brother and is now seventeen years old. The year after I was born, she had another boy who was given the name Darnell Taylor Robert Jr., following after his father. At a young age my mother had to take on the full responsibility...

...I believe that the overall theme of the passage and video was segregation, and I found both sources to be very interesting. In the passage, William and his father had to wait to get water because they were stopped by 2 white men. According to the passage, “They told him that he’d have to wait until all of the white people were finished.” This quote from the passage explains why William and his father had to wait to get water. During the time of segregation, black people were ranked a second class citizens. Therefore, William and his father were forced to wait in line to get water. When his father explained to the two white men that he would just come back the next day to fetch water, the two men didn’t let him leave. They told his father that he and William and are going to stay here and wait until all the good white people were finished....

...adversity. These reflections shall merit my opinion that women play a greater role in raising children in society than men ever could. The first experience to verify my presumption was the first day of elementary school. Children clung to their father’s as though they were their foundations. My mother’s hand was tender, like she was cradling me in her palm. When she guided me through the door of the classroom, I recall her gentle words of encouragement were very different from the stern unmoving speeches by my classmate’s fathers’. A father’s lesson was spoken like a lieutenant to a trainee soldier. I always despised their methods and saw them as intimidating. Yet, when the moments came of moral and ethics, my mother told me stories and fables. They were scriptures of fantasy and folk-lore that still etched a lesson of life into my thoughts. My best friend would tell me that her father was a “magic man”, who would take her to lost ruins and bring back history in shiny deblumes and arrowheads. His wisdom was passed on to her in pictures and artifacts and in secret, I enjoyed listening to her. Externally, I grew angry and outraged that a father could be anything else than a cold-hearted monster. I was too adolescent to realize that these feelings were only transfixed on one father. The one in particular...

...As I walk down the rough ground, I stopped at a tombstone that says, “Rest In Peace Kenny Williams.” I come here every day just to talk to my dead father about my life. Even though he won't be able to hear me or help me, I still talk to him because it makes me feel better. My father died in Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941, which was about a two years ago. He was a pacifist. He forgave anyone even if they robbed him he would always be positive and hope that the reason why the person robbed him did it for a good cause. I, on the other hand, am not. I want to get my hands on Japan and do the same thing. My father died by saving my uncle by protecting him from the bullets. Sure, it was brave, and all, but all that saving didn't do anything because...

...Sierra Seibold Miss Orians English 9 8 February 2016 Like Father Like Son Nishan Panwar said, “Son needs his father at every situation he face in present and father needs his son at every situation he face for his son in past.” The quote shows that fathers need and will need help from their sons, the same way sons need help of their fathers. Fathers, like Laertes and Poseidon helped their sons, just like Telemachus helped his father, Odysseus. Father son relationships in the Odyssey are used for helping each other. Telemachus helped his father take his palace back and ridded of suitors. Homer states, “Telemachus, true son of Odysseus belted his sword on, clapped hand to his spear and with a clink and glitter of keen bronze stood by his...

...How Many Fathers are Best? | Living World | DISCOVER Magazine Page 1 of 4 Print this page How Many Fathers are Best? 04.01.2003 After 40 years of visiting the Barí Indians in Venezuela, anthropologists have discovered a new twist on family values by Meredith F. Small, Photography by Abbas Anthropologist Stephen Beckerman was well into his forties before he finally understood how babies are made. He had thought, as most people do, that a sperm from one man and an egg from one woman joined to make a child. But one summer day, as he and his colleague Roberto Lizarralde lounged around in hammocks, chatting with Rachel, an elderly woman of the Barí tribe of Venezuela, she pointed out his error. Babies, she explained, can easily have more than one biological father. "My first husband was the father of my first child, my second child, and my third child," Rachel said, recalling her life. "But the fourth child, actually, he has two fathers." It was clear that Rachel didn't mean there was a stepfather hanging around or a friendly uncle who took the kid fishing every weekend. She was simply explaining the Barí version of conception to these ignorant anthropologists: A fetus is built up over time with repeated washes of sperm— which means, of course, that more than one man can contribute to the endeavor. This interview changed not only the way Beckerman and Lizarralde viewed Barí families but also brought into question the very way that anthropologists portray human Inez...

...A Day with an Older Person Introduction Growing up, my father was always a great source of strength and guidance to me. He has always been a soft spoken and gentle father. I think having four daughters may have helped bring out the sensitive side of him. He has always been the voice of reason to all of us who have often turned to him for sound advice, even as adults. Last month, my husband, children and I flew to Montreal to spend a week with my family. My parents, my sisters and their families as well as my own family spent over a week at a winter cottage in Montreal. There was a lot of hustle and bustle in that little cottage. The fresh snow made the landscape beautiful and everyone, young and old found many activities to do during the day. My father and I spent a lot of time together that week. One day we went on a two hour walk on a cross country trail just he and I. We also spent an afternoon together in the kitchen preparing dinner, which has become one of his favorite pastimes since he retired years ago. Therefore my observations are from both those afternoons. That time we spent together helped me rethink the way I view aging. Part I: The Walk My father has always been a nature lover and enjoys being outdoors. The weather that day was mild and sunny and perfect for a walk. It had snowed the night before and the pine branches drooped from the heaviness of the snow that had accumulated overnight. On this particular afternoon, I could sense...
