life as a teen mother

Leana Delatorre was born on April 24, 1992 in San Diego, California. She is the second of five children from a single mother. Her father walked out on them when she was one year old. Her and her father never had a good relationship because of that. But deep down inside she still wanted him to be a part of her life. It was hard growing up without him because all the responsibility was on her mother. Her mother was very young when she got pregnant with her first child. She was sixteen and was a runaway. She started hanging out with the wrong crowd and started gangbanging. Leanas mother was still getting into trouble and as leana grew up she started to change. Leana looked up to her mother and wanted to be just like her but sometimes blamed her for daddy not being there .
Leana became a young parent too just like her mother. It was hard to be young and have to grow up so fast. She still wanted to go out with her friends and not have any responsibilities, But she didn’t let that stop her .she still fulfilled her dreams. She graduated from Lindsay community school in 2010 and became a probation officer. Leana is now living in point Loma with her daughter.leana is now setting a good example for her daughter and her daughter is a straight A student and wants to be a doctor.

The mistory of the red queen

There were three possible people that could of been the queen when they found the skeleton. It was hard to find out because it was covered in cinabar so the dna was not really good . the first person they thought was the queen was Yoliknal. king Pakal ruled Palanke 8603-783. In 1952 Pakal tomb stone was found he was covered in cinabar . they were barried in the heart of the temple .
The second person they thought it was Yoliknal there were other skeletons there but were'nt covered in cinabar so they were not important. There were three canidates to test for being the queen . The third person was King Pakal's wife Tzakbu ajaw . she was mistory because no one knew were she was from . All they knew is she wasn't from Palenke. it took her nine years to have a baby and another nine years to have another one . she did live long enough to see her kingdom grow . in the year [672] she died and eleven years later her husband died . it took three years to find out who that skeleton was . the dna testing proved that tzabu ajaw .

Relatoinship Bill of rights

I have the right the right to be treated with dignity and respect .

I have the right to be treated with respect and dignity because for a time in my life i didnt get the respect I deserved and you should never feel low about yourself. For example don' t let anyone tell you that you're not good enough. So that's why i deserve respect and my dignity.


I have the right to make mistakes and not have to be perfect .

Everyone makes mistakes and i made a mistake and lost my mom's trust. For example I snuck around my moms back just to see my boyfriend it wasn't worth it . We got over the trust issues and i deserve the same from my partner . Thats why i deserve the right to not be perfect.
