[quote=Anonymous]God bless you all! These stories are breaking my heart. I was not poor per say but grew up in a different country where we did not have the same luxuries. I think it was more bad economy vs family being poor. - we did not have AC in home or in car. Summers would get so hot that we would wake up at night to take a cold shower - we could only afford one pair of tennis shoes a year (they were just really expensive compared to people's salaries) and we would wash/wipe them every day. Same for jeans - sometimes there would be a shortage of bread/milk so we would have to wake up early to get in line at the store and they would limit one or 2 per customer. - I didn't use a computer or even know what a DVD player was until I came here at 13 years old[/quote]
