He is an amazing person and definitely a salmon who is swimming upstream and against the current.
I understand how hard it must be to fight against everything you are brought up in and around. I'm certainly not trying to generalize Latino culture; these are just the things he's observed and relayed to me. And I'm not trying in any way to excuse this behavior. But you know how it is, when you see your grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles, and cousins all doing this, it's hard to know any other way.
The only thing that saved my friend is that he started working as a young teen and was blessed with some co-workers who lived differently, which made him realize that he didn't have to follow his family's path. But he is made fun of daily by his Latino co-workers for being different.
I grew up in an area with another group of people who lived like this as well. It was very common for young girls to be pregnant at around 14 or even have abortions -- but that's because this was the age all of their mothers had gotten pregnant with them. And it was seen as normal, along with watching boyfriends and girlfriends come and go. Yet it was also common for these families to have at least one male member who was a self-proclaimed pastor, spiritual teacher, or elder.
I really do feel bad for anyone in these situations because it hurts every person involved. I had so many co-workers who were involved in things like this. Maybe not as extreme, but at the very least, a mini-version of this exact same story.
I really hope that this person and all her family members find a relationship with Jesus so that they can see there is a better way.
I pray that God will touch this person's heart, whoever she may be, whatever situation she might be in.
