Hero?!?!?


So right now in class Im suppose to right about the person in my life that is a hero to me. I think that my hero in my life would have to be my parents like all the other people that usually talk about their heroes. I would say mostly my dad is my hero because of the fact that I was raised by him and not my mom my whole life. I don' remember when I lived with my mom and both of them took care of me in the same house. I only remember my dad at my youngest age and he has been taking care of me for my whole 17 years of age. He is my hero because he taught me everything that I know. He pushed me in school and made me a better person who was ahead of class. I remember that when I was a kid I had math workbooks at home that my dad made me do for his own homework so even if I didn't have homework at school, I had homework at home from him. And after doing all of that at my young age I picked up on things faster then most kids at school. My dad kept me ahead of the class and taught me all the rights and wrongs of the world. Whenever I was bad he did what any normal black parent would do and whoop me. He disciplined me with the belt or his hand anything that he could use to show me that it was wrong. Now I know that living that kind of life made me scared to do bad things because of the consequences but look at me now, I have nothing on my record and always do the right thing and make good grades in school. Thanks to that discipline I came out ok, and I didn't decide to go do anything wrong. Thanks to my dad I was able to go to Magnet schools in Austin which were good schools that gave me a good education. And for the second person in my life for some of the time was my mom. I did visit my mom from time to time, and she was the nicer person I always found care in. When my dad said no to something I would go to my mom so she could say something or give me what I wanted. She took care of me and cared for me a lot. I always was happy and still am happy when I get to go visit because it is fun over there. I don't run over my mom and do whatever I want. Sometimes I don't like to do things that she tells me but I alway seem to help my mom because I like to help her out because she needs it and she is the tender nice caring person that is in my life. These are my heroes in my life and the two people that I am happy to have in my life and thankful for being there for me.
