When I was 12 years old, I already knew that my teen years were going to be the worst years of my life.
I was a total outsider, bullied () at school. I felt completely alone and sad in my small town. But by
starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The
opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I
shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received. I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach
out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone.
Books were my true friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors wrote those books. The
kindness they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author
so I could write books that would help other teenagers like the way those books helped me.
After surviving terrible experiences at school and at home, I made a choice to take the optimistic,
positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career, one I thought was only possible for the
authors I loved, is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen novels since 2007 and am
grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day.
Kindness saved me when I needed help the most. Even small acts of kindness can change someone’s life.

Teenagers from low-income families in particular are more likely than their middle-class peers(同龄人
to do less well in schoolwork and to drop out of school. Studies have shown, however, that a positive attitude
towards schoolwork and the support and encouragement from their parents can help at-risk youngsters to
overcome the economic barriers(障碍)and lack of resources they face. Most of the evidence about the effects
of parental involvementcomes from research on mothers. Little is known, however, about how
teenagers experience their fathers, warmth and the beliefs and behavior that are most affected by it.
This new study is part of a large one focusing on low-income families conducted in four middle schools
in the southwestern United States. Researchers asked 183 sixth-graders about how optimistic and motivated
