[quote=Anonymous]We didn't grow up as poor as most on this thread, but, like a PP, my one parent was, perhaps due to mental illness, overly frugal and the other went along so I: ate mustard sandwiches (white bread + mustard) didn't go to school functions that cost money like prom never had any outside classes (dance, sports) never had more than 1-2 outfits that I wore repeatedly, so heaven forbid if something got stained or ripped drank out of jelly jars (which I didn't think was that bad but it was listed above) ate lots and lots of plain pasta (better than most on this thread, so shouldn't complain) I started working at 15 and both my brother and I got scholarships to college. I distinctly remember taking him to college and then taking him to buy a backpack because my parents hadn't. [/quote]
