I could remember tacking Johnson (myson) out for a Walk that day, after he complained of how bored he was at home, the reason i dont normally tack him out, is because he has this habit of wanting to always buy anything he sees, not with his money buh will mine.

Johnson was only 9 years old buh sometimes he Acts like he knows what his doing, i slowly watch his steps carefully, the way he talk, walk, eat, how he isolate himself from other kids, and i can't help buh get amazed at how fast his brain was growing, even more than his body.

As a mom(single mother) i noticed something was wrong,so when he said he wanted to go for a walk, i quickly figured, that it will be a good time to talk things out with him, buh because we were low in cash and we didn't have much money, i mead him promise me he wont touch or ask me to get anything in the way, and he agreed.

As we walked together in the way, i tried reaching out to grad his hand, as i noticed he was just waking back Wards and wasn't keeping up with me, buh he refused to tack my hands and just focused on what he was doing, i felt very disappointed, maybe i wasn't getting something right, maybe am not good enough to be his mom.

I decided not to judge myself, I saw a Candy store ahead and realized i had small money in my bag, so i asked him if he wants one, his eyes lite up and i saw the smile, ive not seen in awhile.

Jackson happily ran into the supermarket and started parking all kinds of candy, at Frist I didn't want him to get upset, so i just let it slide, buh when the receptionist told me that each of the Candy costs 1.7 dollars each, i immediately asked jack to take just 2, if we buy all the 7 candy he took we wont have money for feeding the nest day.

An old woman black woman close to me noticed how i was calculating the small money in my hand, than looked at Johnson, buh didn't say anything, Johnson became very angry that i told him to keep the candys , he went back to keep the candys and start pushing everything down out of anger.

Everyone was trying very hard to pull him away buh he was more strong, even the receptionist couldn't hold him down, till a slap landed in his face, he turned and looked at the old black woman who slapped him, she shouted at the top of her voice, "what an embarrassment",and for the Frist time, he quietly ran into my arms and started crying,

The old woman was very angry, she started shouting at Johnson, telling him how he should honor his mother, how he should be a good kid, how he shouldn't be an embarrassment and also he should behave, she said no black kid should be acting like this(Johnson father is black, so he took his father in terms of complexion), in Nigeria if u try such a thing, u will be beaten bule and black.

The receptionist tried to intervene by calling the police and i told her to let it be, at list some one has to talk sense into Jackson, Jacksons action draw alot of customer attention and suddenly i hear a familiar voice, it was my husband, we separated due
to some reasons.

Immediately John saw him, he hugged his dad and cried vigorously, and the woman who was shouting at Jackson was his grandmother, (Jackson dad was a black), its really been long i saw my husbands mom, i was later told she came for a business trip in my country china.

Things were sorted out between me and my husband, i went back to his house and Jackson went back to being a lovely kid he was, it was at that point that i realized that, most kids due to the separation of there parents, might start acting a little bit nonchalant, and might always want to be an embarrassment for you.

Currently me, my husband, and Johnson are leaving a beautiful life now, no more dramas no more embarrassment.
