In my family you have to choose a career that will benefit the family, soon we will have a family doctor, a policeman in training and other useful things. I really liked the law, I loved it, but not like I love English. My mother had planned for me to go to law school, so I did, I graduated, so everyone "knew" I was going to major in law. I didn't. I decided to become an “underpaid” teacher, more precisely an English teacher. My mother was angry because she didn't like English, the language, reading, grammar, everything. We didn't speak for four months because of my decision, she wasn't proud of it. It hurt not to have the support of my family, but I wasn't going to let anyone force me to be something I didn't want to be. I got tired of waiting, so I decided to be the first to start a conversation, went home and sat her down. I explained to her that this career means everything to me and that I need her support to get through it. I reminded her how her parents forced her to study something she didn't like and which forced her to come to America. This speech helped her over time to understand that I will not be a lawyer but rather an underpaid teacher, but a happy one
