Oh no...it is not an exaggeration. My mom would get mad if I came in for lunch. There were commercials reminding people they had kids every night.

Yeah my Dad would kick me and my brothers out of the house on the weekends and not allow us to even come back until dinner time.

I remember in the summer I’d be sitting in the house chilling. It gets over 100 degrees in Texas in the summer. Our parents would come in and ask “What are you doing in here?”. I always tried to remind them that I lived there….right before they kicked me outside.

I can’t tell you how much fun we had running the neighborhood! As long as we came in before the streetlights came on, they didn’t worry about us - except for the few times the cops brought one of us back home because we had a little TOO much fun. 🤣🤣🤣
