When I was growing up, some of the kids, (on summer vacation) ____HAD____ to go home for lunch. If I wanted lunch, I had to make it my self, and often got hollered at for eating. Often times, my grandmother would "tell on me" to my mother for coming home and drinking a glass of milk. Scrabjan1 02-02-2015, 02:20 PM That's awful...every kid should have been able to have lunch and a glass of milk...Beaver and Wally waste a lot of milk. I had a lot of tuna fish, PB and J sandwiches and never deli. We were not well off but my mother never objected to us eating except when I would try to get into the cookies. mrbreezeet1 02-02-2015, 04:20 PM well, I wasn't raised in a regular household. My mother was working, I didn't know my dad, and I lived with my grandmother and grandfather, mother, and a aunt and uncle. It wasn't like we couldn't afford it either. I actually got the Idea to come home and drink a glass of milk from leave it to beaver. Then thats when I got told on. She goes, "He came home from school and drank a WHOLE glass of milk." If I was pouring a glass of milk, she'd always go "Thats all the milk there is" I think I used to sneak milk after that. No wonder I'm like I am today.

I had a lot of tuna fish, PB and J sandwiches and never deli. We were not well off but my mother never objected to us eating except when I would try to get into the cookies. Eating was cool for us too as long as we cleaned up our mess and did not stand and stare into the fridge with the door open and waste money (how are we suppose to know what we want until we open the door?) Scrabjan1 02-02-2015, 05:50 PM It's interesting to know how people lived back in the day. I can see why grandmothers would object to drinking up all the milk. It was maybe hard to buy milk as it came in regular bottles not like those gallon jugs of today. The milkman only came once a week at my house. I had trouble taking off the cardboard cap on a new bottle so that kept me from drinking milk. mrbreezeet1 02-02-2015, 10:40 PM It wasn't hard to get. we brought it in the store in paper cartons like today. She resented me , cause my mother wasn't married when she had me, is why she was like she was. Zoneboy 02-02-2015, 10:54 PM Eddie complained that they were having chopped egg sandwiches. If I were Eddie I'd complain also. Beaver and Wally waste a lot of milk. :clap :clap :clap Scrabjan1 02-03-2015, 05:48 PM That is so unfair how someone can blame a child for another's actions. I know it's not nice to say something mean about someone's grandmother but she was awfully close minded. She probably begrudged you most things. If my "daughter" had a child "out of wedlock" what a dumb expression, I would welcome the child. I wish I was a grandmother. If my son had a child I would want it. Scrabjan1 02-03-2015, 05:57 PM I'm surprised we all like LITB. The Cleavers were totally perfect, no abuse, no yelling, just understanding and love. I did think other families in my neighborhood were perfect but found out differently. I had a difficult life with an alcoholic father but my mother was wonderful. I wished I had Ward for a father.

She resented me , cause my mother wasn't married when she had me, is why she was like she was. I am a bastard too and proud of it. I ended being placed for adoption though because nobody would help my mother and single women could not get welfare in 1963. mrbreezeet1 02-03-2015, 09:01 PM That is so unfair how someone can blame a child for another's actions.

If my son had a child I would want it. well, I'm sure she loved me and all, but there was just always a little something there I did not understand, and did not figure out till much later in life. Scrabjan1 02-04-2015, 08:30 AM Usually babies are adopted. You mean you were given up for adoption at an age you remember? This is sounding like Dr. Phil but I wish my father left us now I have him living with me for the last five years. He had no where to live. We surely weren't The Cleavers. Tankeryanker 02-04-2015, 10:16 AM I was an infant. Adoptions happen because of a lack of resources. We all remember everything that happens to us, even in utero. What we have trouble with is recalling what happen to us. |
