We never had a bathtub. Mom would bathe me in the wooden or tin washtub in the kitchen or in a big lard can.
I wanted to be with the kind of people I'd grown up with but you can't go...
My mom is in the navy and my dad works for the army but I never called them...
I think you have to be a little bit strict. You can't be friend and their parent in a lot of situations especially in this day and age where it's so dangerous for kids. So there's a bit of sternness I guess in the way I raise my kids.
