'I’ll never outgrow some of the feelings I had as a poor kid.'
If you grew up in a household that struggled financially, there are most likely certain things that you viewed as"luxuries" because you may not have had access to them. Well, this Reddit thread asked those who were poor when they were younger:"
"Staying at someone's house who wasn't poor, like a relative or friend. Their house was also so clean and beautiful, with pictures on the wall, knick-knacks on the counter, and carpet you could play on because it was clean. I spent my entire teenage years hiding where I lived." "Renting a movie from Blockbuster the first weekend of every month. My brother and I got to pick any movie we wanted as long as it wasn’t rated R. On really special nights, we even got a 2-liter bottle of Sprite for the family to share."
"An upstairs. As a kid, I remember hearing a friend say they were too lazy to run downstairs for something and thinking, 'I’d kill to be able to run downstairs.'"
