I went to a yard sale this morning. Reason I went it was a few miles from my place. Yes I still have all my body parts and was CC'ing for my safety.
Address was a nice house in the country, but when I knocked on the door, they pointed me to the trailer behind the barn about 400 feet away. She said it is at my son's house.
Behind the barn was a 40 year old trailer and a collapsed trailer filled with moldy junk. The sale was some stuff in an old barn and under tarps on homemade trailers. Using a match to get rid of the junk would be too expensive, but I found some deals and somehow spent $110.
While talking I had a chance to peek in the trailer house when the guy wanted to sell me some stuff I didn't want. The roof is leaking, the floors are a mess and the furniture is well used and torn. Contrast that to mom and dads home with everything nice and new. As we talked he told me he has 5 kids and one more on the way. He had a real nice 50 inch plus flatscreen.
I did myob....but as a parent, I would never let my kids live in a setting like this if it was on my own property!
Should I be upset at the parents for letting him and his family live in trash or happy they have provided him a home?
