And although I would never wish mental illness or hardship like that on anyone in the world...the way I grew up now means so much to me too...especially now that I'm a parent. I know you feel the same way. Our little neighborhood made such a mark on me in so many ways...but I was still so fearful even within our neighborhood. The fears I had of everyone knowing what was going on inside our home. I didn't know where to go for help so we dealt with so much alone. <br />Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12324519074788576699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704143335047582197.post-17488005890210215572013-04-12T13:47:33.478-07:002013-04-12T13:47:33.478-07:00Coming from the same neighborhood, I totally feel ...Coming from the same neighborhood, I totally feel you. It wasn't cool or fun to shop there, back then. I remember being so embarrassed about shopping there, and I never wanted my future kids to know that feeling. I had a friend in high school who had all the name brand clothes - new - and I was so jealous. But you know, I think I (you too!) am a better person for it. My kids don't know what it's like to wonder if they'll have the things they need. Sometimes, I wish they had that perspective.
