In Mexico there weren't many job opportunities for her so she came her. When my mom turned 16, she came to the US and started going to school at Carlsbad High. My aunts also came the the United states at the same time as my mom but only one of them chose to stay here and the other one went back to Mexico and now has a job in the medical field. ]]> 2019-05-08 14:54:11 UTC https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358081740 932496 https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358086608 One of the main problems that my family had was that they could not speak English. My mom had trouble in school because she could not understand because she said many people just thought she was dumb, but in reality, she just couldn't understand the teachers, so school was difficult for her. Another problem was that since my grandma was always so busy working she couldn't spend much time with my mom.

This did not effect her a lot because she isn't part of the group that was force led and honestly I'm pretty sure she had no idea what was happening at the tine]]> 2019-05-08 15:08:30 UTC https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358089286 932496 https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358093664 2019-05-08 15:16:31 UTC https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358093664 932496 https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358275337 2019-05-08 23:27:03 UTC https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358275337 932496 https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358275437 2019-05-08 23:27:39 UTC https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358275437 932496 https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358275761 2019-05-08 23:29:58 UTC https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358275761 932496 https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358276055 2019-05-08 23:31:44 UTC https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358276055 932496 https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358277832 2019-05-08 23:41:49 UTC https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358277832 932496 https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358707006 2019-05-10 00:13:29 UTC https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358707006 932496 https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358707189 2019-05-10 00:14:38 UTC https://padlet.com/932496/wtlm6ct78nsf/wish/358707189
