Roy Haynes Smithsonian Interview Block 94 (Q5767)

I didn't stop school immediately. I was still going to school, but sleeping in school. I couldn't concentrate. But I would accomplish a lot financially, and I was trying to behave myself. I wasn't acting the fool outside, trying to respect my parents, my family in general, and myself. So they didn't say anything. I was bringing money home. I would give my mother some money as well.
