No, but I seem to be surrounded by lots of people whose gramparents certainly did.

My grandparents didn't talk like that because they actually had a rough time of it when they were young.

So they might drop bits of information here and there, but they didn't want to remember it.

Dunno about my maternal grandparents, as they passed on before I was born. But my paternal grandparents were always reasonably prosperous, so, no, not many tales of childhood hardship. Now. stories about what a mischievous tyke my father was, well...

There is always one in a family, makes you feel good to have a direct line from them...

Yep! I'm told a home movie exists of me and Grampa Marmelstein walking side by side when I was a toddler, and, even at that young age, our gaits were nearly identical... and, as an adult, I do take after his build.

All my grandparents were dead before I was born, but i did know a great-uncle who was born in 1904 and ran away to sea when he was fourteen. He sold milk and eggs through the Depression, and it marked him. He had Mason jars in his house filled with salt, pepper and sugar packets that he would shamelessly stuff his pockets with at McDonald's. He never wanted to buy anything he didn't absolutely need.

Sounds like my mother, she did much the same, always had a store of the worst foo, she figured t would last because no sane person would eat it.

Don't get me wrong, I loved her, but it left its scares on her.
