<p>[QUOTE="VistaCruiser69, post: 24557789, member: 107016"]No, I think it's because my great grandma was at her prime during the great depression. My grandparents were kids during that era as well. And for that reason, those who experienced it first hand tended to keep it living in their memories which in turn impacted what they did for the remainder of their lives. For example, nothing upset my grandparents in the home more then wasting food. Every time I ate a meal at the house where I was serving myself, my grandfather would echo "take all you want but eat all you take". I threw away some food from my plate into the trash once. He looked at me like I had just got caught stealing money or something. I made sure I never did that again. He's not around anymore, but still, to this day, I live by that golden rule.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
