Make it through high school, through college, through medical school, and to a career. The college that she wants to go to is in Washington. The reason she wants to attend there is because, quite frankly, she feels that she doesn’t fit well in Wisconsin. Also, she went to visit family down there in 6th grade, and there was nothing like the skyscrapers and the mountains in the same place. It made her feel at home in a state. She learned that Washington has a wonderful forensics program, and not many kids want to go into the same field she does so she has a pretty high chance of getting in. Wisconsin bores her, Makenna is interested in more cities like sights, and all Wisconsin really has is cows and corn. She wants to go to schooling to become a forensic pathologist and graduate with straight A’s. Then her goals would be to bring peace to families of murder victims. “It may sound weird, but sometimes it helps to know how someone died, and it's comforting to know if they went peacefully.” she says. Adding on to more goals in her life, even though she doesn't want any kids, she’d like to definitely get

An influential American printmaker and painter as she was known for impressionist style in the 1880s, which reflected her ideas of the modern women and created artwork that displayed the maternal embrace between women and children; Mary Cassatt was truly the renowned artist in the 19th century. Cassatt exhibited her work regularly in Pennsylvania where she was born and raised in 1844. However, she spent most of her life in France where she was discovered by her mentor Edgar Degas who was the very person that gave her the opportunity that soon made one of the only American female Impressionist in Paris. An exhibition of Japanese woodblock Cassatt attends in Paris inspired her as she took upon creating a piece called, “Maternal Caress” (1890-91), a print of mother captured in a tender moment where she caress her child in an experimental dry-point etching by the same artist who never bared a child her entire life. Cassatt began to specialize in the portrayal of children with mother and was considered to be one of the greatest interpreters in the late 1800s.

(59) Even with this she was already too emotionally unstable due to her family issues and felt like she couldn’t go through with her dreams to travel and even go into the art of culinary. She suffers from psychological problems such as depression and worries constantly about almost every aspect in her life from work to family to her boyfriend and just hopes that her life won’t go downhill. (60) Overall Kayla’s family structure shows how different is it now from it was in the 1950’s as divorce rates have risen and while before Kayla’s type of family structure was rare now it is becoming more common. This story helps illustrate the contributions of stress that children possess growing up in difficult homes in which they can’t put their own futures first they must, in some cases, take care of their guardian’s futures first or others around them. Again, this adds into the inequality that many face when it comes to being able to climb up the ladder and become successful regardless of where one
