Do you have annoying siblings? Do you wish that you could just go back in time to see if you could relax with them there? Well, what if you could do that, but your siblings came with you and now you’re stuck in the 90s with them? That’s kinda how my moms life went. These stories deal with 2 older sisters and an older brother. So, read my story about trying to deal with annoying siblings and terrible, and I mean terrible, videos you have to listen to in school.

Me :How was school 

Mom :Mom: liked elementary school. I got to be in mediation, which meant I got to break up fights and I could help the teachers.

Me :What are some things you could do back then 

Mom :We had a 4th grade teacher that would let us catch snakes and he would keep them for us 

Me :How were your parents 

Mom :They were cool. Every year they would take me to worlds fun for my birthday. Dad was strict of course 

Me :Do you have anything to say about how different stuff is now compared to back then  

Mom :Schools have loosened up. Schools have been less strict. They don’t have to write cursive, and  you guys use much more technology  than we used to 

Me :What did you do on a weekend 

Mom :We went to the skating rink a lot. They had a lot of cool stuff like lock-ins where we would stay in until 7 pm to 7 am. We would go fishing and lots of other stuff 

Me : What kinds of video games did you have? What was your favorite game, and on which console  

Mom :They had free personal pan pizzas for a program called Booket, and we would beg mom to get free food and go  play at the arcade. So we had an excuse because we would get free food, but she had to pay for the other stuff like the arcade. We had the Super Nintendo, then we got the PS2 around 5th or sixth grade. We got the Nintendo in elementary My favorite game was on the Nintendo. It was Super Mario All Stars because I could play all the Marios and I guess Donkey Kong was my favorite and Crash Bandicoot 

 Me :Who was the favorite kid and were you jealous

Mom :My brother. He was the only boy and sometimes he got a lot of attention. We were always on the road for his sports. I got forgotten a lot, even at my own softball game and my mom’s basketball game. 

Me :Why do you always say that you are the favorite even though you were not the favorite in the past 

Mom : No, I don’t think I’m the favorite anymore. I was just joking about that. I don’t really know who the favorite is anymore. At least according to my mom I’m the favorite

Me : How expensive was a meal at Mcdonalds 

Mom :It was like five or six bucks, but I could out at a restaurant including tip for only 20 bucks. Everything is so much more expensive and were about to hit a recession 

Me :Were you popular 

Mom :No but I was well known but I wasn’t popular. Yeah we went to the movies, we went out to skating rink, and we had sleepovers  

Me :Did you do any pranks on your sisters and your brother 

Mom :Yes we mostly did jumpscares and some nair pranks were we would put this in there shampoo and there hair would fall out and my brother shaved off half my eyebrow  

Me :Did you have fun stuff back then that we don’t have now

Mom :We had different colored ketchup and Yogos, which were little yogurt balls with different flavors and swoops which were pringle-shaped chocolate chips

Me :What would you change about your life 

Mom :I would invest early to make that green and live comfortable 

Me :Did you hate your siblings 

Mom :Mostly not I but I did hate that I didn’t feel noticed 

Me : Which sibling did you like the most 

Mom : It varied from day to day they were all my favorite at one point

Me : What did you learn from your siblings 

Mom : I learned a lot of things like how to jump rope, ride a bike, kindness compassion empathy  

Me : Were you the scapegoat for your siblings {if not, who took the blame the most}  

Mom : We all blamed each other but your uncle blamed me and a lot of other people 

Me : Do you wish that you could bring some things from the 90s to now 

Mom : The food and the other cool stuff from Pizza Hut and the simplicity of the nineties   

Me : You were the youngest in the family. Do you think that you were the golden child or is that fake 

Mom :The golden child varies with time  

Well, that is all. Try and ask your parents about when they were kids and maybe they will share the same experiences that my mom shares. Try and see if they have fun stories about how it was and maybe you could learn a lot. Try asking your uncles to get their opinion on how your parents were and if you do find something interesting then maybe you could find some things you wish you could bring from the past into now.
