Innovation and safetyI found bobby pins worked even better than the hangers though.Had to go in mommy's bathroom and snatch a couple of these.
It was easier to handle and I didn't run the risk of gouging my eye out.

That remind me of when the buttons on the tv broke so moms forced me to change the channel using utensils.
My bruvas taught me how to steal cable too. Them days.
I remember the day I found out my mom was stealing cable. I came home one day and the cable just stopped working.
I'm like "Mom you forgot the pay the cable bill."
"No, I didn't.
""Then why isn't the cable not working?
""Well when we first moved in the apartment the cable was working when I tried the cord. I was wondering why they didn't cut it off sooner."
"Well you're gonna get the cable back right?
""No
"

Central Heating and Cooling...I didn't know what it was until I hit my early twenties and seen the inside of a rich persons house. It was cool or toasty within seconds.

That's what happened with us too, the cable randomly worked even though moms never a paid a bill once.
We kinda just moved in and it was working for a couple months until they probably figured out the scheme.Then she recruited one of my bruvas (not her son) who's a known career criminal to fix that shyt for us.

Honestly those fevers are fuvking worse. Cos Mosquitos bite u every damn day and they carry dirty blood. Those African Mosquitos
That b*stard didnt even get us a mosquito net so I was getting bitten like no mans business
Atleast people coming from the west get vaccines we didnt have that shyt.
I was always sick, ALWAYS.
And they give u injections. No meds no prescription just straight injections for it.
Malaria always started with temperature and you feeling feverish
Worst years of my life.

Yes.
I used to get sent to ymca's in nice areas as a way to try and "keep me out of trouble" and "expose me to different people". I was like a hood legend to them.

@Kind Gentleman this reminds me of my childhood before my parents came up before the good life before we bought our first house and before the shops
And also short time I spent in Africa in summers
In Africa having to walk an hour for everything, food water everything.
Waking up sleeping on sofa and a fukking huge African Bush cat rat just chilling there watching me on the sofa
Leaving food on table not finding it there cos rats had dragged it
The hunger
Waking up with sore toes cos rats were nibbling on my feet
No light in Africa having to use candles and lanterns.
Being neighbour hood baby sitter at 6. People leaving me with new born babies by myself no training nothing.
Sleeping outside on a matt stepping on what felt like a prawn shell turned out to be a fukking scorpion.
Having people rob us in Africa in our house making us all lie on floor guns every where
My parents sending my uncle money to buy us food, him spending it and letting us starve
When same uncle spent my school fees and I had to stay home for like 3 months
Lizards just walking around my home
Snakes, bush rats were an every day occurrence.
I could go on but just know age 6-8 where a fuvking struggle all cos the uncle who was meant to take care of us decided to embezzle the money instead.
2 years of struggle.
had to share a room with my sister for like 4 years till my grandma moved out
thats about it
thats about it

Yes.
You still crazy as hell though. That shyt ain't did you no good.
I'm not gonna lie, moms did the same to me, but shyt couldn't tame me all it did was help me network with other fukked up kids.
