I have to think and act as though I am their only son. This is my responsibility to bear. There is no way I would want to leave my hands in the fate of another person. Why should anyone allow your life to be in the mercy of another? Reliance and dependance is never a key, only a cause of potential conflict. And I won't accept things for what it is, acceptance will not propel you forward, it sweeps one around with the currents. Ambition is the key. How far it can drive me will determine success.

This issue here isn't gender. Ability is never gender discriminating, unlike society.
