change people. My mom and dad have been divorced for 17 years and everyday I think of how life could be so different if it weren't for the small things that happened. My mom would still be stuck in an unsuccessful marriage with dad who would never respect her in the way she deserves. My sisters and I would be considered poverty stricken aas a family. My mom would never have the encouragement from my grandma to continue college, even though she had 3 kids, all under the age of 8, struggling to move out and cover all her bills, and hold a factory job. She would never be the powerful, fulfilled woman she is today. My dad would still be a kid getting his way instead of the aging New Orleans musician he has become. But on the other hand, they would be together if what they had done had no effect on anything and if divorce couuld never change anyone.
