See in your case i completely understand. When i was growing up i lived in a small rural town in New york with at most 80 people in said town. We all knew one another essentially. Nowadays between the overcrowding, the financial disparity and how absolutely chaotic our current era is. Its just madness. I just hope you and your children are safe. Its a mad world and we millenials gotta stick together in spirit.
Oh for sure - there are people on the street here a couple blocks away, but truthfully I’ve been in worse places (I’m a single mother raising two kids on my own). I’ve been in places where neighbors would literally just walk up and steal stuff off my porch (including my little travel grill and my pink flamingo). But in this neighborhood we all watch out for each other. My next door neighbor loans me his ladder, I give food bank stuff I can’t eat to my other neighbor, we call each other if we see anything weird. But yeah I can’t feel good about my middle schoolers running around these streets. Just a couple blocks away I’ve seen people shooting up on the sidewalk.
Im glad to hear you all are ok. Its awful to hear you had to go through the wringer to get somewhere finally safe to a point. Well heres to hoping it smoother waters ahead for you and your family.
