When I was young my parents didn't have much money, but did the best they could. I always thought my parents were too strict, compared to how my frieds parents were. But when I look back on it now, it is a good thing they were, I would have just run wild and ended up in trouble. (I was in enough trouble as it was) All in all, I appreciate my childhood, I didn't get all the fancy clothes and things that a lot of the other kids were wearing, but oh well, I still had a lot of friends. What sucked is when I was older, my parents had more money and my sister is nine years younger than me.....they bought her a car........oh well.....I am more responsible than she will ever be.....wonder why that is...hehe.
