Your favorite childhood memory?

I did that in the middle of the night with my friends and one of the neighbours came running out of his house in his pyjamas and screamed at my friends, while I hide in the tall grass in somebody's front yard. My friend dives in beside me and goes "Who the fuck was that". And I nearly erupted with laughter, so I had to bite my lip to stay to hidden.

@Allelse: lmao...that's hilarious. Good times at that age. I can still remember even sneaking out of the house when we were teenaged too, those were fun times. Only got caught once, lol. The first time.

@mamabutterfly: Haha! Yeah it was fun times. sneaking out? Naughty naughty! :P Haha! Caught first time? But that didn't stop you from trying again?

@Allelse: Nope, lol. We even snuck boys in, me and my sister and friends....our parents never knew. We were slick kids.

@mamabutterfly: Ooooo! Naughty naughty! My parents were neglectful so I never had the experience of having to sneak anyone in.

@Allelse: Awe, I'm sorry. That must not have been good.

@mamabutterfly: Well it was in some respects. I'd just take home whoever I wanted or I'd go out whenever I wanted, but a part of me was always a little sad that they didn't care.

@Allelse: wow, that makes me sad just to hear that. I understand though. I can't really say my life was all rosy and perfect growing up but I can say that was fortunate enough to be blessed with a loving family. I understand the dynamics of abuse and neglect so I feel you in that respect. Knowing that and to see that happen to someone just breaks my heart.

I had to come to accept that some people should never have been parents. Especially if one is a narcissist and the other is like a wild dog. I'm sorry if I've made you sad :(. Its alright. I've had the fortune of marrying a VERY good, kind, loving woman who I'm devoted to. so it didn't turn out so bad in the end. ☺

@Allelse: Well I'm a mama (hence the name, lol) mom to 4 but actually my story is quit similar to your own. I ended up marrying a narcissist who was brought up in the same kind up upbringing and it was a marriage where he was actually abusive to me, so I left him with my children because I didn't want our children growing up in such an environment as that. Often people dont understand how the children are those who are hurt the most by it. That is nothing I ever wanted for my children. So for me, I fled the abusive marraige and took my children with me because I didn't want them to be brought up like that. That was 10 years ago. Good for you that you found someone who treats you right, you sound like you certainly deserve it. Glad to hear that you have a happy and healthy marriage to.

@mamabutterfly: Four kids?! Wowzers! Oh god marrying one, you poor thing! A good thing you left then, I mean as an adult you can take it but to have to watch as your own kids suffer as you did. I'm glad you left him.
Thank you. Yes I got very lucky with my wife. I found somebody with a good heart, a kind heart and a giving heart.
