Sheltered lives..

If I said it, you'd know where I live. So I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you...

 

im similar. i spent the first 19 yrs of my life in the woods growing food and working/being in the woods all day. moved to the city with the money i had, right in the middle of the ghetto. into a place that used to be a crack house. i had to put locks on the doors because people would literally walk into the house at night.

i wouldn't really call myself 'sheltered' because i've seen some fucked up shit in the woods too, but it was a culture shock. ive never seen people act so primitive for so little as i did in the ghetto.

o and RIP PIMP-C bitches

 

I grew up in a small village, which was and is very peaceful, but have always been in a chaotic family. After a lot of things happening with home life, I became friends with some people and ending up running away to the city. Of course that was a hard struggle and I got into some bad things.

Now, I still have a way of finding trouble but I don't regret anything tat has happened, if nothing else I am glad that I haven't had a sheltered life because everything has made me into the strong person I am today and I would hate not to know about life that not everyone sees.

 

I live in a community along the central new england coast rich in maritime history with an eye towards the tourist trade. There’s very little crime with the exception of the occasional rape or larceny common for a city of its size. and its an idyllic location with massachusetts to the south (where I grew up and the vast majority of my family still resides) and the state of maine (stephen king country) just across the piscataqua river

Just surviving my youth turned out to be quite an accomplishment. Of my three closest childhood friends, two are dead and one has brain damage from a car accident involving alcohol. He doesn't remember me.

 

I grew up very sheltered as a child, my parents are still married, and we grew up in small towns, till we moved to california. Then it went down hill, I moved out at 18, after having difficulty with my parents, as I am sure a lot of young people do, and ended up homeless in one of the worst ghetto parts of p-dale, I had cops pull over and ask how much, on a daily basis living there. It was bad, I have seen and had things happen to me, I never knew were possible when I was younger. I was abused by all of my exes, and I lived in squire, had no money and nothing. and now I am very grateful to have had those experiences, even the bad ones, bc it has made me appreciate all the good in my life now. Like having an amazing man, and two beautiful kids, and an roof over my head. IT hasnt been easy living in the real world, but I am glad I did, bc I wouldnt appreciate the quiet and small towns,and such till I had lived on the streets in the ghetto. I am sure my experience isnt as bad as many others, but I did learn from it.

 

my life was complete shit in miserable neighborhood after miserable neighborhood. with a couple good periods in between. i'm in a good neighborhood now. but i've got a shithead neighbor. bullying bastard from hell. i actually feel less safe than i have in a long time.

 

The polar opposite of sheltered

The country life, nice to visit, good to breath fresh air, but I get bored too quickly

 

I had a nightmare neighbour when I was younger, they tried to get what they wanted and when we said no, they turned and did all they could to try and get money out of us.

 

Awwww

 

I'm not sure if I just like to be bored, or if I never get bored, or what.... but I seriously love having no excitement at all!

 

I was really sheltered as a kid. I had no idea.

But life gave me an attitude adjustment.

I live in the jungle of the third word.

I have and am living it.

 

i'd rather never live it again or have my kids live it at all.

 

partly sheltered but well informed

I have had a sheltered life if by that you mean that I have not had to want for anything. I also made sure that I could support myself in a style that I wish so that I do not have to want for anything now.

I do not think I am in any way naive as to life but can afford to do as I wish and stay away from things that I do not wish to be exposed to. See them but would rather live my life.

 

No pun intended but I suspect you have a head as big as Lord Byron

See I come from a very privileged background, but made my own choices and didn't want to live in the comfort of money. I probably took it a little far at times, but that's life.

 

I would say I'm sheltered in a way, my family are very well off, so I don't know what it is like to not be able to afford things, I went to a private school and because of my dads job we have our own security, but I have been to so many different countries and experienced allot of different cultures, so in that way I'm not sheltered. Allot of people expect me to be a snob, but I don't think I am.I have just lead a different life to most people.

 

I guess Afternoon Tea at Brown's Hotel is out, even if it was my treat?
