"Financial Infidelity"

What this story talks about is having a relationship with your partner on how to manage your financial stability. The author talks about how she has an opened relationship with her partner about money wise and not lying about how she spends the money. She mentions that in a relationship, one of the partners will lie and use up all the family’s money, living the family with debts. Also that one partner will be the spender and the other one the saver. Although I do not go through this situation with a partner I still relate to it because I see it happening with my parents. My mother is the one saving up money and paying the bills and my father is the one spending it.



"Autism South Africa and Jail4Bail"

This story grabbed my attention because it talks about Autism. I like how in the beginning the author talks about the world in a way we can all reflect on. The author mentions good commentary on how Autism people shouldn’t be treated different. Autism people still go through same situations and still have the same feelings we go through. In the United States, people with Autism get treated pretty well. They’re able to get insured and not have to worry about financial stability. But it’s not only the insurance they need for help, they require specialized and individualized education. I have herd that in Africa they have a bad society but I never imagined that they will go so far that they won’t even provide health insurance for the people there. Here in the U.S. Autism kids get to attend school but in Africa some aren’t bale and affects them as they grow. I relate to this story because my cousin as well has Autism. I have watched him grow up with the expectations of him getting better. Although he is not born here, he still gets treated properly. Unlike the kids in Africa my cousin has opportunities to attend school and have access to health insurance.
