A big dream for a boy

Cole sighed "I would love to go to med school but my mom thinks its silly to spend all that money on med school for a boy. She is convinced that I should be married and raising kids in 10 years."

D'Shawna gasped "You're one of the smartest in our grade boy or girl. Why wouldn't she want you to use those smarts?"

"She told me that most women don't want their husbands to be more successful. My dad us super smart but he is just a househusband. I tried to tell my mom that times have changed there are more men in the workplace now and in positions or authority. Mommy just laughed and said that she would quit any company that made a man her boss and maybe I could go to nursing school that's a good job for a silly boy like me."

Cole couldn't believe how much he was opening up to her but D'Shawna had a way of looking into his eyes and making him feel safe to be honest. He heard a whispering laughing then Madison punched Kimber in the shoulder and glared at D'Shawna
