[quote=Anonymous]I identified with the poster who said they went sledding on a pizza tray. That made me smile. I never thought we were poor but I did feel we had less than my age mates. My parents were/are hippies so while we grew up with NPR and the New Yorker- there was no a/c, no dance or swim classes or any other classes besides at school, clothes were all from Goodwill and new shoes from Grandma once a year were a real treat. Classmates asking if my mom made my clothes mortified me. No birthday parties- nor did we do the birthday party circuit. Bills were always paid though so the lights stayed on- I will credit my parents with living within their means though I know they got help from their parents from time to time. Thanks to the PPs for sharing their stories[/quote]
