I'm trying very hard to make my son have a good life. I've always wanted to go to college and do something I'm passionate about like writing or editing or dermatology. There are so many things I would like to do and I just don't want to put off my life so I can raise him when I know with a little bit of financial help, I can take care of him and go to school at the same time and actually make something of myself. I want Aiden to have oppurtunities I never had I just need help.
My name is Adrianna. I'm 17 years old and live in Sumter, South Carolina.
I have a 5 month old little boy named Aiden and we are staying with my mom until I graduate from high school.
I moved to south carolina from Salt Lake City to live with my mom when I got pregnant because my dad couldnt take care of me and an infant. The school I went to in Utah was amazing. I learned so much there and absolutely loved going and learning and interacting with others. I was in clubs and on the swim team and just was ecstatic to be there. Unfortunately, the education system and its establishments here are not so great. Being a student at a public school in sumter feels more like a third world country. I hate going; Nevertheless i go and I get good grades but I dont want to stay here. and my mother is driving me insane; God knows I love her but I cannot live with her.
I would really love to go to college more than anything. I have so many dreams and ambitions but I feel like its impossible so I'm searching for ways to get scholarships; grants; funding; etc..for housing and babysitters and school. I need it all. I have to move out soon and i dont know what im going to do if I cant go to school. I'm looking for information on housing and school in utah
