Re: How many here had ruff upbringing?
the oldest of 5 kids and from a hard working working class background my dad worked at the steelworks never had holidays (could'nt afford em) but i am and was the blacksheep
as a kid i always liked science fiction and believed that there was aliens and ufos as a result was treat like a geek by my family and friends, i remember being asked to recite my beliefs in front of uncles and aunts grandparents cousins laughed at as though i was some kind of circus side show i did not think that at the time i was a kid felt like i was being asked my opinion on something but did not realise that my own family were taking the ****.
Of course this all told in later years and i have no contact with my family at all and have no wish to, i went o to become a mechanical engineer have a partner of 25 years and 2 grown up kids they all know my beliefs my 23 year old daughter listens to theory with interest my son listens and makes up his own mind my partner tries not to look too much into it as it frightens her but is amazed at how what i relay to her comes to fruition
but it has made her wiser to the ways of the world
blacksheep ....yes
outcast ...... Certainly
