@adult_talk_with_grandma: When I was growing up we were so poor, but we had a lot of love. What was your childhood like? #chilhoodmemories #whereicamefrom #oldpeople
We were so poor my dad would get things out of the dumpsters. Really good things, bakery goods and stuff. We got our Christmas from the Salvation Army.

We were poor also. I went to school with a lot of girls with big houses. As you said we thought that's where the rich kids live. My father a stroke when I was 4 years old. So the lifestyle was not good. My Uncle Tom did a lot for us and I don't forget it. Still I wish I could go back to those days.

There were 6 children in our family. We were homeless. My dad got a squirrel and took potatoes, put mud all over the potatoes, then threw them in the fire. They were delicious baked potatoes when you cracked them open.

We are poor too, and honestly, life has been very difficult for us. We struggle to afford even the basic things sometimes, but we keep holding on and hoping things will eventually get better.”

My mom raised my sister & I alone. We were so poor that we ate macaroni & butter for all meals doing the poorest times. Bean soup was another that we ate alot of. I never knew we were poor. I grew up in Iowa on a farm and always had fresh veggies and can't remember being hungry.

I grew up extremely privileged I know I was very lucky to have the childhood that only others dreamt of❤️I even asked my mother at about 7 yrs old when we were traveling through a neighborhood if those people were poor and she was so eloquently spoken and said no Chetta they just live differently❤️she was a class act for sure what a wonderful way to answer a 7yr old!
