“She wasn't that tough on me, but I think she was often a little frightened - being a single parent. So it begets this quality of desired absoluteness that doesn't really exist. My sister could crack her up. She'd be getting into trouble and put the Steve Martin arrow through her head and mom would start to laugh.

“And last, my mom. I don’t think you know what you did. You had my brother when you were 18 years old. Three years later, I came out. The odds were stacked against us. Single parent with two boys by the time you were 21 years old. Everybody told us we weren’t supposed to be here. We went from apartment to apartment by ourselves. One of the best memories I had was when we moved into our first apartment, no bed, no furniture and we just sat in the living room and just hugged each other. We thought we made it.” ThinkingKnowsYearsFirstsMadeTwoLastsThreeCausesParentMemoriesRoomsBoysBrotherMomBedMovedMy MomMade ItSupposed To BeSatMy BrotherNbaThree YearsOddsApartmentFurnitureEighteenLiving RoomSingle ParentMvpBest MemoriesEighteen Years Old Author:Kevin Durant
“For me, already being part of a single parent household and knowing it was just me and my mom, you'd would wake up times and hope that the next day you'd be able to be alongside your mother because she was out trying to make sure that I was taken care of. But all I cared about was her being home.” TryingHomeCareAbleMotherNextParentKnowingTakenMomWake UpMy MomHouseholdNext DaySingle ParentBeing A Single Parent Author:LeBron James
