I knew I would get flamed for being caring and compassionate, I'm not really part of this forum's crowd, I've been dirt poor not having 2 nickles to rub together, and lived in a 1973 dodge coachman but it was the best that I could do other than living in a tent, and my sight was clean but that was never enough to keep people from turning their nose at what our camper looked like compared to theirs, now that we have "nice" stuff I still keep my feet on the ground and remember what it was like to live that way.
I don't see you as being "flamed" merely having a differing opinion that I happen to disagree with.
Yes, I grew up poor as well but in a large city. Had my days of eating USDA excess produce (habinger to the food stamp program) and the infamous winter of eating oatmeal for breakfast and dinner; stuff nevah touches my mouth since that year even though I made it for my kiddos and now for my DGD. I cook it by smell and sight, LOL.
Being poor doesn't make you sloven; being pride-less does.
