Breadwinner

Imagine that you alone are responsible for earning all the money your family needs. How would this change the way you live your life? What would this kind of responsibility feel like and how well do you think you would handle it? I will answer these questions in the following paragraphs.

This is how it would change my life. I am used to playing with my brother or my friends, but I wouldn't have that privilege. I love to play hockey but I would be too busy. I would have to work hoping that I would be able to feed my family. Life would have to wait.

I don't think that I could handle it. My days would be wasted! My life, ruined. Too much doesn't ever seem to be enough. Handling it would be torturous.

This responsibility would wreck my life. I would absolutely hate it! I would complain to my family but deep down I know that I am the only one that can do it. I would have mixed feelings about it, angry or sad that I have to do it and happy because I know that I am doing my family a great thing. I would hate having a responsibility like that.

I hope that this never happens to me and my family.
