Was your childhood a good one; or was it full of anger, abuse, neglect, and such.

SPC Margaret Higgins - I was very fortunate to have grown up in a loving and caring family. While I was an Army Brat and moved around quite a bit, I would not change one thing about my childhood. I tried very hard to give the same loving, caring home life to my children as they grew up (as Army Brats) and am very proud they are doing the same with their families. We are blessed...

Mine was great! Grew up on the farm, parents who cared, taught me how to work and the word RESPONSIBILITY. You can read a lot about it here: http://beslagsmed.wix.com/mikelwdawson#!thoughts-of-a-crazy-old-man/c1ger

Very good question Margaret, I would have to say full of anger and neglect. I carried this pain into the military which only intensified everything I was already feeling. I do now see that my parents did the best they could with what they had and now that I am a parent myself, I try to do better for my children so they want feel the same way. The military however does make a child feel neglected and of course the divorce rate is very high.
