How an Earthworm Changed my Life


How peer pressure made me a bully in Kindergarten. Parents of children of all ages should read this to better understand the mind of a child.


Dirt. That's what I remember most about my childhood... My mother was 16 and my father 19 when they were married on New Year's Day 1983. Nine months and nineteen days later I was born. We were living in a single-wide house trailer on two acres of land that had huge oak trees which prevented grass from growing in the yard. It was heaven. Mississippi gets hot during the summer and in 1989 I was in Kindergarden with my best friend for as long as I can remember - Cindy. Cindy and I were inseperable. We were "best-friends". Once I began school I realized that Cindy and I were not the only girls in the world our age. It was an eye-opening experience for me because I was used to playing with her and no one else but friends from church.
