MY CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCE
As a child growing up,i was a very gentle kid,so calm and tender hearted.i had a next door neighbour whose parent were so close to mine.And every time this kid goes out, no body wonder about his where about.When is back at any time he likes,no one ask him were he was. And i like and admired this kid and wish my freedom was like his. He became my friend and each time i go out (out a distance) with him, my parent would be worried looking for me...and when am back i would have to face the penalty of which i knew.it got to a point that i feelt my parent hated me, and i would be wishing my parent were like my friend's parent,because my parent worries about me alot and it pisses me off . during long vacation i would go to a relative for hollidays so i would be free.eventually the same will occur as that of mine parent.it will be so bad that i will feel home is preferrable. All through my child hood growing up i felt my parent are depriving me of my freedom as a child to do what i want to do.when we moved out(relocated) to a place that is quiet and calm filled with outstanding people that are well to do, and there was nothing like children playing outside in the play ground.the fun i experienced were all gone and i wondered if i would survive the atmosphere,of which i survived after many years.when i went back for visit now that am an adult, i found out that the friend i admire so much was in jail and i wondered what kept him there until i was told he was caught with illegal drugs(hard drugs) and i felt so sorry for him, and thinking about my life.i came in realisation that my parent didn't hate me, its just that they didn't want me to go the wrong way, and they seek for a nice future from me that why they were protecting my future for me...maybe assuming my friend's parent did same for him he might not be in jail,maybe he might have been here as a steemian . thanks to God that "I AM HERE ON THIS DISTINGISHED PLATFORM"(STEEMIT).
