...Personal Narrative If someone was to ask me whom im more like my mother or my father? I would immediately say my mother. Im constantly told im a”mini Chrissy” and when I was much younger I would cringe at hearing that, but now I understand why were really exactly the same. From our voices to the shape of our noses I am clearly my mothers daughter. And don’t even get me started on our personalities it’s like having a clone or looking in the mirror, scary to think how similar we are. But that shifted quickly of course we still had the same little button nose and our voices were identical but her fun side seemed to go out the window. It was July of 1999 and God seemed to have another plan for my family. A plan that none of us were on board for. Today when I think about the month of July a million things instantly come to my mind. I could make a list of all the good and an even longer list of all the bad. Lets start with the bad, why not just cut to the chase? July 19th 1999 I could remember this day in my sleep. We were at Westchester Country Club and it felt like I had the world at my fingertips. And for a four year old that was pretty grand. I was wearing my favorite green Lilly Pulitzer bathing suit with a matching green cover up I felt like the coolest chick around and no one was about the bring me down. Until my Aunt came running down to the baby pool pointing her finger at me, making me feel as though she was accusing me of doing something wrong, but that wasn’t...

...She said she was not pregnant. Even through the phone i could tell she was lying. I can always tell when anyone lies, which can be good but it hurts my feelings sometimes. I disregard the conversation and kept what i knew to myself. About a month later i got home from school and Chelsea was at my house. I didn't think anything of it until she was sitting on the floor doing “homework” in the middle of the living room. I looked at one of the papers on the floor that read Blood Test Results - Pregnant. I sat there trying to work up the courage to ask. I was more worried if she wanted the baby or not and if she could care for a baby with her financial situation and emotional state. After some time i...

...understood the importance of being a professional social worker. The ethical dilemmas social workers come across and have to make. I work around women all day, so in my opinion everyone has their own ethical and personal values towards different aspects of ethical problems they may have in life and how the client chooses to do so. For example, I had a client last month that walked in to our office for the first time with her boyfriend. She was 16 years old and pregnant about 10-12 weeks and wanted to enroll into the program for her pregnancy. During the enrollment period she states “Im to young, I want to have an abortion plus my parents do not know I am pregnant and they can not know, what do I to.” When she ask me what should she do, normal answer to all people they would say keep the baby. However, as a social worker you have to learn to put your own personal values aside even though you do not agree with abortion. In my opinion you wanted to have sex with out protection and in result to your actions you ended up pregnant. I had to reflected on myself and take a breather. I started to prov more asking her questions as to why she wanted to have this abortion? I know the fact she is young, and her parents do not know. However, why? Code of Ethics 1.01states “social workers primary responsibility is to promote the wellbeing of...

...When I got back I found out the situation and it was bad, but it didn't change the way I thought about him, and didn't make me want to be there less for him. He ended up getting a girl pregnant and she lied about it but I told him that would happen and he just didn't listen to me. When he got really depressed he hated himself and he always told me I deserved more and that I deserved the whole world. I told him he was wrong though. I thought that he was good enough for me, I knew that he was what I wanted and that he wasn't anything less than what I deserved even though people kept trying to put that in my...

...Believe it Immigration is a very controversial issue that we have been facing for several years many are in favor of it and others against it. I would like to make a change and give out enough information to those who see immigrants as criminals when in reality they are normal human beings that are in search of the “American Dream.” A change must be made, a opportunity must be offered, and a life must be changed this is what I want for each and one of these individuals who leave their home countries and families in order to pursuit better life conditions. What is the “American Dream?” Many may have the same question but few may know the true meaning behind it. I had the great opportunity to interview a man who’s name is Juan who recently emigrated into the U.S from Mexico I asked him what does the “American Dream” mean to him? He Answered…“The American Dream is a dream many of us see very hard to reach, day after day we struggle with our everyday life not knowing whether we will earn enough money to set food on our table and not being able to sleep at night simply thinking of what we can do and how we will reach our needs. Mexico is facing a lot of violence the streets aren’t safe anymore I thanked god everyday for giving me another day of life because once you stepped out of your house you didn’t know whether you would come back or not. There is a difference between our needs and wants. I wont lie there are many things I wish I could have but...
