Inez

In this story Inez is stereotyped in so many ways. She is accused of being a bad mother who can't support her kids and is a dead beat. All the people in the story think she is an irresponsible person. They say she is a thief, whore, abandons, and underprivileged. These people have no idea who she really is, but they judge her just by the way she talks or dresses and never take the time to know the real her.
Society stereotype me as a bad, young, irresponsible mother. All because I am a young mother and I had my son too young. They may think so many things about me and they don't even know me. This is what they think but how do they really know what my life is and what I have to go through. Society thinks that because I have a baby when I was 16 I must be a little girl who slept around and got pregnant. This comments make me feel angry. They can't put me down because I know that they are not true, but it does hurt. So that only makes me stronger and makes me want to prove them all wrong.
Well I do it all the time I guess it's just like a defense mechanism. It's not that I have low self-esteem because I don't. I just do it before they do it to me. Sometimes I do feel wrong for doing it because that person might not do it to me. I know that all people do it and some for the same reasons too. We aren't perfect.
