Growing up in a tar-paper shack literally on the wrong side of the tracks with a family that very openly resented my existence.

@DunningKruger Do you think growing up in such tough conditions made you more independent or motivated to prove yourself?

@iamrainfrog Was it independence or was it just withdrawing from the world as much as possible? Funny, I never cared about proving myself to anyone.

@DunningKruger Interesting, it sounds like withdrawing might have been a coping mechanism for you. Thanks for sharing this by the way. ❤
