It was in 1920 that, after a century of marching, women finally gained the right to vote in the United States. Following this, many other countries around the world agreed to provide this right to women. This marked a significant change in history, however, there is still much to be done.

My Boyfriend Kicked Me out after Learning I’m Pregnant, 26 Years Later My Son Paid Him a Visit – My Story
Tina believed she’d found her happily ever after when she married her high school sweetheart, Richard. At 18, she eloped with him, despite her dream of a traditional wedding. However, shortly after, Tina became pregnant, and Richard’s true colors emerged. He kicked her out, and when she sought help from his parents, they cruelly accused her of infidelity and cut her off completely. Realizing she was on her own, Tina devoted herself to raising her son, Greg, with all her strength.
Greg grew up aware of his father’s abandonment and supported his mother, eventually becoming a successful businessman. Despite his accomplishments, Greg harbored a deep resentment toward Richard. One day, he tracked down Richard, only to find him frail and struggling. Realizing revenge wasn’t worth it, Greg instead bought Richard’s house, which was being repossessed due to debt.
When Richard arrived at the property agent’s office to finalize the sale, he was stunned to see Tina and Greg there. Greg revealed who he was, ordering Richard to vacate with the same words Richard had used years before: “If I see you again, we’ll have a problem.” Tina watched Richard leave, reflecting on the irony of the moment.
