I remember as a kid in grammar school at some school function where parents were invited I was very proud of my parents. Daddy was a handsome man and mom was quite pretty. Mom was always the disciplinarian and daddy was always the comforter. I wonder how often that's true in other families? I'm gonna ask. Thank you for your reply D! :)
Sane with me Rosie....I would always run and hide between my dads legs if my mum was after me and angry.... she had to laugh though ,but I still copped for it..... There was no escape if I got my mum on the war path.....:)
How funny hunny. Worlds apart in time and space and yet we experienced a similar childhood! When people asked my dad if he were disappointed he had no sons he said "I wouldn't trade my girls for anything". I'm sure my mom would have answered that question differently! Thank you for your reply D! :)
I'm kind of the middle one of six Rosie..2 boys first,girl me girl then another boy.......Apparebtky I was the hardest to cope with and the most artful and funniest.....My elder brothers and sister took all the flak I should have got ....all the girls became quite a handful after that...lol
I don't know about that. Maybe these days. But when I grew up most parents took very seriously the need to well socialize their children so they would be able to get through life well. So we would know how to behave and interact with others. This was part of love back then.
I really didn't know anything else so I guess I did for a while think of them as rather wonderful. But as I matured and life became more stressful I started to realize they had shortcomings as well which might be negatively affecting me. Which was one reason I left home. Although was not like I hated them or anything. I just felt the atmosphere was so restrictive and I could never flourish within it. Which was as much my problem as theirs. They believed in certain kinds of things I just did not fit into.
Nice Jugs
