"The kitchen is closed".
Taught us to not to expect to go scavenging after ANY meal.
There were ZERO snacks when I grew up!
WE were just happy to have two (at times three) meals, let alone with SNACKS????

Don't remember anything as described. Don't remember anything being said. Remember my first girlfriend and her family. Remember being embraced by them. Remember feeling like I was home with them. I remember that Rose ran the family and that John deferred to her. I remember that there were 3 brothers and one sister and as far as rose was concerned I was son number 4.
How I miss them!
They were my family. Unfortunately I did not marry they're daughter, but over the years I have come to understand that God gave me a family, and the love of family and it has nothing to do with blood. I am way off the subject but memories have a way of intruding.

It's sort of obvious the family felt sorry for you and the smack ROSE gave you to the skull. ...Don't remember anything as described. Don't remember anything being said.

I locked my son out of the house one day, he was only 3 yrs old but driving me crazy. It was winter, so the little brat starts taking off his clothes. As he knew I would, I brought him back inside.

"You're so clumsy!" I still have a complex from this. Worse, she said to my sister all the time, "You're so stupid!"

My dad, when I had done something really dumb: "What were you thinking? What were you THINKING? No, don't answer that question...I know what you were thinking! NOTHING! That's what you were thinking!"
My mom, when I protested loudly that something wasn't "fair" and that i was mad at her: "I don't care! I'm not running a popularity contest here. I'm not running for Miss Congeniality! I'm your mother; it's not an elected position!"

I don't really remember any. I do, however, remember our daily instructions in the summertime:
"Be home for supper"
"Be home for supper"
Remember hearing that from other people , my mother was fairly quiet ..it was my stepfather who did the abusing
that I’ve got no wish to repeat

Oh I remember that one. My Mom would say theres a reason why youre an only child. When you grow up I hope you have kids just like you.My parents, "I hope you have a dozen just like you!"
Me - laughs.
And THATS the reason why I decided not to have kids.
