Best Foot Forward (Post # 3)

“Do I want him to stop drinking, yes? Can I do anything to make him stop, no? I can only love him and speak the truth when we’re together, if we ever are again. It’s I sad truth to hold on to, but truth isn’t always happy or easy.”(62)


Jenna is talking about her dad in this quote. Her dad is and alcoholic, which makes Jenna very upset. By her dad being and alcoholic cause Jenna some problems. Which she has to handle by going to classes so she understands that she’s not the only one who has the same problem. No matter how many times she has tried to help him he never seems to stop. Jenna would write him about once a month just to talk and check on him. But he would already be drunk and not write back. So she finally just stopped trying because there was nothing she could do. It’s sad to see someone have this problem and someone going through this but, the truth is there is a lot of people that have this problem and people going through the same thing as Jenna.
