Summary
On my fourth birthday, my dad established the "Problem Penalty System."
One wrong word? That’s 30 extra math problems. Wake up one second late? 40 problems. Not loud enough during morning reading? 50 problems.
"You have to study hard, Lucas. You have to do these problems. You need to be better than her child. You need to make the Vance family proud!"
My dad raised me alone. It was hard on him. So I had to be good. I had to listen.
Even if my hand cramped so bad I couldn't hold a pencil.
