mom …
My curfew was the street lights, mom didn’t call my cell, she yelled my name, i played outside with friends, not online. If i didn’t eat what my mom cooked then i didn’t eat. Sanitizer didn’t exist , but i COULD get my mouth washed out with soap. Neighbors gave a damn as much as my parents did.. i drank from a garden hose cus if i went inside for a drink of water my mom wont let me back outside.
my mom would cook & i’d say i want McDonalds ..her response was always ” you got some McDonalds money? ” My mom would make me take my sisters where ever i went & if i didnt ..all hell would break loose. If i ever raised my voice to my mom she’d say ” you better lower your voice cus i aint one of your little friends ! ” ..my mom would always embarass me infront of my friends ..but throughout it all ..the punishments , hunger , embarrasment ..they all taught me life lessons
