God... I remember rationing food as a kid, the roof leaking whenever it rains, breathing in all that smell of trash and hearing people working with metals, welding, grinding every morning I have to go to school, and your parents couldn't buy any toys for you cos there was no money... or they just downplay the fact that whatever you experienced when you were young stays with you for life. Didn't help they all came very late at night almost all the time
Also the times I can sense adults staring at me weirdly when I was walking home from school or just exploring the neighborhood..
