I'm from the hood darling.raising my son on my own.Makes me feel good.Neighborhood i was raised in 10% take care of their children.Excuse me.But yea im glad i made it My point was for those that didn't really grow up like that, brag that they did. If I was gonna lie, I'd say I grew up rich or something good when i was in high school i brought a friend of mine over to my house, and she looked around and ask if i was rich,, that was because she was way under the poverty level her parents lived in a one bedroom shack.. no my parents were not rich, they just worked for what they got |

Why people would try to brag about being from a ghetto I mean I know people sometimes try to be things they really aren't... but isn't it usually something better at least? If I was gonna lie and brag about where I'm from, I sure wouldn't be picking a hood maybe it's just me |

Well I grew up on some mean streets in Brooklyn NY
I watched my dad bust his *** to make better for his kids It formed me to be the woman I am today I'm not ashamed at all about it. I just don't advertise it And it's true. People make their own neighborhoods!! |

I think it takes a much stronger person to learn from where they grew up, put the bad in the past, and try and fix what you can in your life and try to help others learn to help themselves.

Because it doesn't take much to pretend to be no account but it is a lot harder to pretend you are something. Most people think being middle class is boring and just trying to create interest. I agree pretending to be poor is pretty lame.

Not everyone finds living in "the ghetto" or "the 'hood" to be embarrassing or worthy of stigma. I know many people who continue to live there out of choice, not because of their economic status, mainly because that's their comfort zone. Not everyone wants to live in the suburbs, nor should they.

I dont get people who would BRAG about it, theres nothing to brag about. But Personally, growing up in the ghetto I feel blessed to have had that experience, so I discuss it openly.
