61My name is Cindy Crispin and I am a 36 year old single mother of 2 kids living in New Castle, Delaware. . I have a 20 year old daughter and a 14 year old son. I am certain most of you are doing the math and thinking she was a baby when she had her 1st baby and you would be right about that. I was 15 when I had my daughter and 21 with my son. Needless to say my life has been FAR from glamorous and nothing at all like the show "Teen Mom" I had to drop out of high school when I got pregnant and started waitressing. My plan was to go back when she started school and though I was EXTREMELY careful when it came to sex I still discovered my 2nd pregnancy the morning that I put my daughter on the school bus on YES' her very 1st day of school! That bought me 11 more years of no education and but plenty of waitressing experience. YUCK! I left 1 crucial part out of this scenario and that is I was NO "easy girl" or "fast girl" but when I was 14 I was raped by a 24 year old and that is how my daughter was conceived. Like I said, NOT a glamorous life that I have been living but it has given me the drive to educate others as much as possible about my experiences, trials and tribulations and that has made it all worth it. That and the fact that I now have 2 beautiful, smart, and biggest hearted kids in the world!
I am proud to say that I did go back to school in 2005 and got my GED in 2006 and in 2010 I began Dental Assisting school graduateing with honors in 2012. I will be starting at the local University in the fall to chase down my MBA in business. Wish me luck PLEASE!!
