Online Lesson 10

She had enough of this. She wanted to stop all of these right away. But it was really out of her control. She knew that it was partially her fault, being too concerned about her own career, and not giving her child enough attention. Especially when he was a 15-year-old. In the stage of puberty, having his tantrums. She knew that what he need was a little more concern from her, a little more attention from her.

It was tough for her internally, it was the peak of her career. But the peak of her son's emotional instability as well. Career vs. Family. It was impossible to balance between the 2. She was no superwoman. Lying on her bed, she was frustrated about this matter. To her, if she had given up her career, it would be a wasted 15years in the trade. Nonetheless, if she did not do so, it means that she would not be able to help her son. Would she want her son to turn into a gangster? Learn the wrong ways? Get onto the wrong track? Finally leading the wrong life?

She lied on her bed, closed her eyes. Thoughts flew threw her mind. As she went drifting into her dreamland, she have gotten her decision made. The next morning, an email was sent. She got onto her car, dressed casually, with her son in it. She knew she made to right choice.
