Beating the odds...how being a teen mom is NOT like the tv show!- Adell's Story How The Hell Did I Get Here???
-
- Diari
Today we hear Adell's story of growing up believing her grandparents were her parents until at the age of 4, when her mother came back from NYC to claim her. Adell lived in her mother's alcoholic chaos until finding herself pregnant at the age of 15. Admittedly, Adell made many mistakes while trying to figure out how to be a mother and a successful adult but ultimately feels she beat the odds, that were definitely not stacked in her favor.
She married her high school sweetheart, the father of all three of her beautiful children. She finished school, worked hard, and bought a home with support from her in-laws and friends. Adell eventually became the custodian for her younger brother when neither of his parents were capable of of taking care of him due to their addiction problems.
Her message is that you can do better than what you came from. Don't blame your past but instead use it as a catalyst to learn, to grow, to try harder. It is possible to overcome even the biggest and most emotional obstacles to succeed. It is up to you to make that happen with a little help along the way. Tune in to find out how Adell conquered the odds for herself and then went to slay for her family too!
