My Biggest Fear

A teacher gave a journal prompt to her seventh grade class asking what their biggest fear was. When the class was done writing she asked to hear a couple at loud. Most children said things like being abducted or dieing or bugs or stuff like that, but when she wanted to hear from some one new and asked the kid in the back of the class, that never speaks, to read what he wrote he said:
"Sometimes when I lye in bed at night while my father is off fighting fires somewhere, I'm afraid that the floor above him will cave in and I'll never get to see my daddy again. I'm also afraid when my mom is off bartending late into the night that a man will asult her and she won't be the same mommy I once new. I'm also afraid that my baby sister will roll over while she's sleeping and suffacate herself. I lie in bed thinking about this stuff every night. That's why I don't get annoyed when my baby sister cries in the middle of the night, or when I see headlights in the drive way at twelve O'clock meaning my mom is home late, or when my dad calls at eleven because he forgot to say good night to me my mom and sister. A top of anything else that is my biggest fear."
When he finished reading his journal he looked up to see all of his classmates with tears in their eyes he smiled and said "Well...what did you expect?"
