In reply to Dinah, Barbies versus the spending?, posted by Susan47 on December 3, 2004, at 23:47:21
I think Barbies were my escape back then. Into the front room away from everyone. Into an imaginary world. I think I want to escape again.
But my mother bought me those Barbies and went into debt for me. I really shouldn't think that way. My mother would have gone into debt no matter what. But I was often the recipient of her overspending. In fact, when I got older she stole from my brother and I to give us "gifts". I was never quite sure whether to be angry with her when she used the stolen money on us. Was it really stealing?
