When She Unveils Identities By Zaylee CortéZ Chapter 280
Chapter 280 Prejudice Against Single-Parent Families
“Um…”
Gabri was in a dilemma at Jane’s words.
At the beginning of the establishment of Monteria International Kindergarten, the Parents’ Committee
put forward such a rule to improve the requirement of school entry, as well as to ensure the good
source of the
students.
Over the years, the kindergarten had strictly enforced this rule and never epted children from single-
parent families.
Even though Gabri admired Shirley’s upright and kind thoughts and ideas and liked Bet’s
cleverness and cuteness, it was inappropriate for her to make an exception in front of so many parents.
“What would you say? Ms. Nn, as the head of the kindergarten, you cannot take the lead to vite
the school rules. Children from single-parent families have too many problems and wed
personalities. If this boy joined the kindergarten, children from normal families would be affected. You
cannot make the exception, no matter what!” Jane said indignantly.
The parents around were incited by Jane, and they all shouted, “You cannot make the exception, no
matter
what!”
Under such great pressure, Gabri had no choice but tofort these parents, “Everyone, please
calm down. Um… In regards to this matter… I will find a way to take care of it.”
“How?”
A parent had a nasty attitude and treated Shirley and Bet as a disaster. He said harshly, “The best
way is to drive the mother and son away. If you let them, the iplete family, stay here, it will ruin the
harmony and warmth of school spirits of Monteria International Kindergarten!”
Shirley’s beautiful face instantly turned gloomy to the extreme. Her eyes were like sharp des and
fiercely stared at that parent, warning him, “You’d better shut up your stinky mouth, or else, your child
will also be one of the single-parent family. I promise.”
Shirley was too aggressive, so the parent instantly fell silent, burying his head low. He was so terrified
that he didn’t even dare to look up to meet Shirley’s eyes.
Not only that parent but the other parents who were full ofints were also chicken out and did not
even dare to say a word. Only Jane was like a clown, wantonly humiliating Shirley and Bet.
Of course, Jane was subdued by Jorge’s p in the end.
Shirley felt very sad.
Shirley had thought that Bet and Alisha would be looked down upon because they were from a
single-parent family.
But she did not expect such a worse social environment. Society was so malicious to the single-parent
family
that even normal entry to a kindergarten was restricted.
Shirley did not want to make things difficult for Gabri, so she generously said to the crowd,
“Speaking of this rule of the kindergarten, forget it. I, Shirley Wilson, is not an unreasonable person.
Monteria International Kindergarten doesn’t wee us, but I believe that some other more tolerant
and better kindergartens will
do…
“However, I’d like to let you know that the children from single-parent families are not monsters or
gues. You do not have to avoid them… Whether children are outstanding and kind and have the
right view of the world depends on how their parents teach them by their examples. If the parents are
full of prejudice and short-sighted, their children will be the same as their parents!”
After saying that, Shirley held Bet’s hand and said, “Ben, let’s go.”
Some of the parents present interspersed their talks with curses. They thought that Shirley was
pretentious, and some were in thought and lowered their heads in guilt.
Looking at the backs of Shirley and Bet, Gabri felt even more ashamed.
Gabri hade into contact with so many students and parents. It was no doubt that Bet and
Shirley were the best, hundreds of times better than many normal families. However, they were
rejected by Monteria International Kindergarten. What an unreasonable school rule!
Gabri made up her mind to find a way to fight for the qualification of school entry for Bet.
It was getting dark after they left Monteria International Kindergarten. Shirley found a children’s
restaurant nearby, and she was going to take Bet for dinner there.
Along the way, Bet was unusually quiet.
Bet was very cool since childhood, just like his reticent father.
However, Bet seemed to be too quiet today. It was obvious that there was something on his mind.
Shirley guessed that Bet was upset about what had happened at the kindergarten during the day,
and she instantly felt distressed.
“Ben, what are you thinking about? Why do your frown so tight? Can you talk to Mommy?”
Shirley looked at Bet and asked gently.
Shirley had always taught her two children in the way of free-range parenting. She never interfered with
what
they wanted to do, and she rarely preached.
The only rigid requirement for her two children was that if they were unhappy, they mustmunicate
with
her immediately instead of holding it inside.
Therefore, no matter how cool Bet was, he was willing to share his thoughts with Shirley.
Bet drooped his head, pursed his lips, stared at Shirley with tears in his eyes, and asked, “Mommy,
am I

not obedient or smart enough? That was why those parents disliked me, wanted to chase me away,
and did not let me join the kindergarten. Right?”
When Shirley heard this, her fingers silently tightened.
Shirley thought, as expected, Ben is unhappy because of what has happened during the day.
Shirley felt distressed and then carefully said, “How could that be? Ben, you are obedient and smart. It
is their loss for not seeing how excellent you are… It doesn’t matter. We can go to a kindergarten that
wees us.”
“Mommy, you don’t have to coax me. They don’t wee us because I don’t have a daddy, right?”
“Um, it…”
“So, I have been in thought just now. Daddy means nothing, but we still need him… Just like today, if I
had a daddy, we could be considered healthy families even if he were in a vegetative state, and we
could have qualified to enter Monteria International Kindergarten, right?”
“Well, it makes sense…”
Shirley nodded, feeling even more upset.
Even though Shirley was already very strong, many times, she could not make up for some things that
her childrencked, no matter how hard she tried.
Sometimes, Shirley wondered if she should find someone to marry, whoever it was. At least seemingly,
Bet and Alisha could have a father in name, and they would not have to face such prejudice today.
However, marriage was not like ying house. Once setting up a legal rtionship, it would be very
troublesome. It would hurt both herself and the other. She really couldn’t get over that.
Otherwise, she would have married Ewan a long time ago.
“Okay. I know what to do.”
Bet was suddenly enlightened, and his mood became better. He happily ate the spaghetti on his
te.
Shirley was puzzled, and she asked with a smile, “Brat, whates up in your mind?”

Bet said seriously, “I can’t enter Monteria International Kindergarten because I don’t have a daddy.
To solve this problem, I just need to find a daddy for myself.”
“That makes sense. Do you have any suitable candidates?”
“Of course. I’ve filtered for so many days and picked someone qualified. He not only can be my daddy,
but he can also be your husband!”
Bet had a very proud expression on his face.
Shirley just took it as a child’s babble and echoed, “Ben, you are awesome! I can’t wait to see what will
happen.”
