    @Kabocha Id like to give a Shout out to my mom for raising 6 of us on her own! My Mom came over soon after the Vietnam war in 74'. I remember one day we had a neighbor friend of mine come over to play, we were around 8 yrs old at the time. We used to climb the magnolia tree in the front yard and play hide and go seek all the time. One day Jimmy asked If I had any extra food , he said hadn't eaten in a while. So I ran inside and asked my mom what we could give him. She pulled the refrigerator open and handed me the last orange we had. Without question I grabbed the orange and ran it to Jimmy, he and I both shared it. Food stamps were right around the corner and my mom had store credit with a friend of hers who owned the store near our house, so Mom knew it would be ok. My mom was not educated and we lived on Government assistance growing up. We didn't have much but we always had food, shelter and clean clothing.(And some how a Nintendo 64 and Atari, lol) From time to time we were lucky enough to Splurge at the good will store! I am here today and a decent person thanks to my mom! "Happy Mothers day Mommy, I love you !"

    @Toshibazen

    I really enjoy reading this story. I can relate to growing up just with the basics and sometimes less.

    =====
    I felt regardless of circumstances. You seem to make the best of childhood and sound like you and siblings had a lot fun! To me your mom sound like amazing individual!

    Thank you, for sharing your Story!
