Q: If you could change one thing about your life, what would it be? “My mom and dad not being together, because I guess it wouldn’t affect my life as much as it does now.

It makes school a lot more difficult, because I have to switch houses, and then I have to tell my dad what’s going on and tell my mom what’s going on. It’d be easier if I could just tell them both. Like if they could both help me at the same time. I’m not saying I hate it, but it’s fine because they’re both happy now, so I’m happier.”- Mia Gibson, ‘24
