HANDOUT 2
I am the youngest of 5 brothers. When I was a child I was short, skinny and
restless. My parents were very nice, but very strict too. So, from my early
days I was in charge of some minor household chores because Mom and
Dad were working and my brothers and sisters were too busy with their
school work. That was the beginning of my independence. l was always
making my own decisions and even though people thought I was too young,
I was a happy boy. I believe it was a good experience because now I am a
strong and independent man.
