1.) Age range: 20-25
2.) Ethnicity: afro Caribbean (and Hispanic)
3.) Family type: nuclear, extended, lone parent or reconstituted (delete as appropiate)
I don’t know what these mean….
4.) Do you believe your husband/partner having control over you is right? Uh…absolutely not.
5.) What are your ambitions? To finish my degree in kinesiology and exercise science then to be accepted into a doctorate physical therapy program and to become a physical therapist! It’s really important to me that I am able to stand on my own to feet. To many women fall into the category of depending on a man so when the going gets too rough they have nowhere to go or how to survive on their own (way too common and I do not want that to be me).
Other than that, get married, move back to the suburbs, have kids (a girl being one, preferably). Of course, not until my career has started.
6.) What do you thnik your position in the house is?
My parents’ house? To be a hardworking, respectful, obedient daughter.
7.) What do you live for? (family, ambition, other-please state)
As for now I live for ambition and motivation. I need to graduate school and obtain a career. That’s what’s driving me.
8.) How satisfied would you feel if you had a job?
This question implies that afro-Caribbean and Asian women don’t work. Obviously ten for me.
9.) How do you think your culture treats/views single mums (lone parents)?
Sometimes what is done needs to be done. And that’s well respected. If this single parent was careless or irresponsible which led to being a lone parent than it is highly looked down upon. Well, at least I’m sure of this in my family.
10.) Do you think lone parents are more independant?
Well, they have to be.
11.) How satisfied are you in your relationship with your husband?
I’m not married. I’m beginning to think this questionaire is for middle-aged women. :-/
12.) Would you get support from your family if you were a lone parent? does this make you feel confident in being/becoming a lone parent?
If I was to become pregnant and a single parent I don’t think my family would be so supportive. I would have to depend on myself and my friends.
