Episode 12: The Desert, My Mom, And Me By Trent Good

Sometimes it's hard for teenage boys and their mothers to see eye-to-eye. That's why, when Trent Good was a freshman, he decided to skip school and run away from home for the day. He wanted to do some thinking and decide his future for himself. In this month's episode, Trent interviews his mother about how she felt on that day.
