Mom and Dad,
I am sorry, but I can not take this anymore. I am pregnant as you already know, not allowed to play soccer, which is why I came here, got left by my boyfriend, in the middle of a pregnancy I might add, and I am being swamped with homework that I can barely keep up with on top of all the doctors and counselors everyone is having me see. I am only 18 and can only take so much. I want to drop out of school at least for a little while until I can get my stuff together. I am sorry to disappoint you I know you only real dreams for me where to prosper in school. I will come back, I want to make something of myself, but first I think I need to find myself. I love you and I hope you understand. This whole process is very overwhelming. I have had trouble staying focused nearly the whole semester and I would like to blame my pregnancy on that. I have had trouble getting a couple things in on time I am getting so worn down emotionally, physically, and mentally. School should not be this hard. Not everyone should have to go through what I am going through. I find it unfair and unjust that all these people are getting better grades because they have hardly anything else to deal with. I want to be like that, worry free. So please support me on this decision to drop out. I love you and I hope you understand how important this is too me.
Love,
Christine
Christine,
You know we love you, and are here for you no matter what you decide to do. You are so far along in your pregnancy that you have to stay in the Austin area anyways for your doctors. School is the only thing that you should be focusing on. If you feel that it will make you crazy, you can come home for a little while, but I urge the fact that you will go back to school. You need to get an education so you can support yourself and maybe even a kid if that is what you decide to you want. Please do not take any of this personal I just want what is best for you. Coming home is an option for the time being, but that is not going to be the answer to fix your problems. We cannot support you for the rest of your life. We are going to die eventually and you will have to take care of yourself. There are going to be bills and expenses that you have never had to pay before, you have it financially easy. I think you should take into consideration the amount of work it would be for you not to be in school before you completely drop out. You will need to get a job to start helping out with the bills and then if you decide to keep this child, it will be yours. You will be paying the insurance for it and although we are here to help out, we are not going to be the soul providers. You need to get a good education and be successful in order to help out yourself and your family.
Love,
Mom and Dad

I enjoyed the seriousness of this. Being pregnant would be a huge reason to have to drop out of college. I liked the sentimentality and sincerity around it all. From both the daughter and the mother, there was a clear message of love, which I thought was very special
