Listen to me, I'm not the first kid who has ever gone through this experience.

And you know what I had to ask myself in that mirror at 16, 17, 18, I had to keep asking myself, when you saw it, why did you see it that way?

Why did you not call your mom and say, mom, you wouldn't talk about this?

Why didn't you go, hey, Ma, the counselor, can we go sit down and talk to the counselor?

Hey, Ma, call Dad.

Can we just sit down?

And listen to me.
