When I was living in the Dominican Republic, the local kids became a part of my family.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
In the Dominican, there are a lot of kids who need help. I just do that for my mom because my mom liked to help a lot of kids in the Dominican. Whoever I am right now is because of her. She gave me the education; she always took care of me like a mommy.
I grew up in a family of nine kids.
My parents are Dominican. I would always go to the Dominican Republic, and I fell in love with Bachata, which comes from the Dominican Republic.
I grew up in a great family.
My older brothers and sisters have kids and families.
I was raised in a lower-income family, and we were wild.
I have my three brothers, and then I have my adopted sister from El Salvador, who is actually the oldest. My brother and I were already born, and then my parents adopted my sister from El Salvador during the war and had two more kids.
My family came from Ecuador.
I have an enormous family because I'm from Montreal and my family's Catholic, so my dad has eight siblings and they all have kids and we all grew up in the same property on weekends and summers.
I'm just this Dominican kid from New Jersey.
