What were your parents doing at your age?

View all responses

My parents were likely new parents at my age, navigating the challenges of caring for their one-month-old daughter. It’s possible that they felt utterly clueless, especially my dad, regarding the responsibilities of parenting and providing for a family of four. Alternatively, he may have been less concerned about finances during that time, as my grandmother, his mother, was receiving a government pension.
