To me, the idea of eating with others is far more foreign than eating alone could ever be to most people, or at least that's the vibe I'm getting.

As a kid, my father got home 2-3 hours before my mother did, leaving my brother and I to eat with my dad. My father provided for me, but that's all he did, he never helped raise me, teach me, all he did was insult, threaten and scold me and my mother at every opportunity.

My brother was the son he wanted and I'm the one he wishes he didn't have, that's how he's made me feel every day since I was born.

For this reason, I started taking food to my room to stay away from him. In school, the noise and frequent rejection from others pushed me to find a teacher willing to let me and a few others eat in a room away from the cafeteria. Even then, I never went to talk, I went because I didn't like my classmates and didn't like being around them.

I never felt welcome or belonging, only 2 people ever made me feel anything but unwanted. For all these reasons, eating alone was pretty much the only way to eat.

It has been 16 years since I sat at a table with just my parents and brother, and I will never eat with my father alone, and I'm sorry to say that I really do mean that.

In high school, I ate at the table closest to the door, I ate fast, usually just a couple minutes. I didn't talk to anyone, I just ate, took my enzymes and went to the courtyard to throw the football. I'd accepted that aside from throwing a football outside, me and others just weren't ever going to have any kind of relationship, discussion, we were never going to spend time together, so I kept to myself, and frankly, I was as annoyed with their presence as they were with mine. So the hatred was very mutual

As you've noticed, I've been more open but still, I have no shortage of hesitation to change eating from a necessary refueling of the body to a social environment.

But I'll get there. Is eating a social event for you?

They need both working and if one gets layed off and even if he or she gets another job it tends to be lower pay , and they can't make payments.

Younger people have college loans , the house , maybe one child, car loans, Health Insurance Prems, Property Taxes, Groceries, Utilities, Gas, etc. These are high today and going up. Most bought their home in better times and things today change overnight. So this is their side.

Now , did they bite off too much? Do they party too much , travel, Cruises, have a chlld too soon, or buy too big a home (I get that they are figuring homes will only get more expensive)? So did they rush to get everything right now and now they realize they over stepped?

My parents rented until they bought their home. It was a just built starter home 3 BR 1 Bath and when they paid it off , they then built porch , garage , and doubled size of Kitchen, they paid that off. They did not buy their 3 kids a car. They helped with cars , but kids paid them back. They helped with college for their kids, but did not pay all of it.

So which is it? Are younger people just biting too much off and spending too much on other stuff? Or is it the System that is failing them with low pay , loan scams, rich just getting richer, banks setting them up for the fall, or the college scam?

How is economy booming with this many foreclosures? What would the Trumpers being saying if Biden was still President? Also don;t you think younger people will be voting for Democrats in November because of this?
