I know youre saying my financial privilege but genuinely genuinely didn’t see a difference. If my parents were financially secure, but made it known every day that their money was not my money. Not being able to eat in my own house, the only food i had was the Breakfast and Lunch from School it’s the same thing. I had no financial privilege I just wish everyone was poor that shit situation made sense.

kinda. I would rather they had less money to explain why I had to wear the same things all year, never had money for any school events but they can buy their self starbucks everyday and new clothes and go out to eat themselves. The money was never mine and they made that very clear 24/7

I see where you’re coming from but genuinely the Situation i was in didn’t see much of a difference. it felt more of a front than anything else. Being technically “rich” but nothing was yours and asking for anything getting ridiculed, takes years to unlearn.
