Then again I think out of everyone I'm the only one that is strong enough to handle being undocumented as long as I have, the rest of my family is way too impatient to handle it and I don't know if they'd have been able to endure it as long as I have.
I would love to pay a fine in order to drop the "undocumented" title, I'd work hard and pay it off, at least let us have that option.

I am starting to seriously resent my family because of this, it did not take them long to seemingly forget about the complexities of my status, they actually dragged me against my will to a DMV to try and get a license because they did not want to pay for something that was not government issued (not dragged, just that I cannot drive so it really limits what I can do except protest against going there)...
And the trips, my parents have had their PR status about a year and have already traveled 3-4 times to colombia including once for a whole month while they left me house sitting.
