This is after the movie
It's been two years so lets see if she can handle this. I told her she can invite 1 friend and I'll take them out to eat before the movie. At her age, that's all I ever wanted to do was go to the movies. I had nobody to take me when I was a kid and it sucked. That's why, til this day it's one of my favorite things to do. I don't get to go to often even now as an adult. I'm going to take them somewhere different than were she usually goes. She deserves it. She just started going to school in Springfild, which is a huge difference than being in Newark all her life. She was scared the first day of school, she thought it was going to be like mean girls. When in fact she loved it, everyone welcomed her with open arms and she made friends right away. Go Kayla! When I was her age I had no problem making friends either.
As much as I advocate for Newark.. this is no place to raise a kid. It got better for awhile in the early 2000s and now we are right back to the bullshit. Even I'm tired of living here. I want to be able to go for walks and bike rides at night and I can't do that anymore. I'm living in fear of getting mugged every time I walk out my door.. I have to make an escape plan, stat.
