 Future HBCU Graduate Classic T Shirt

I was probably about eleven or twelve years old, living with my mum and sisters in a two bedroom apartment. Mum worked two jobs to feed us because Dad had left us to move to another province with Mum’s best girlfriend. He deserted Mum taking all the household money, leaving her with no income. I remember that it was Xmas time. We were very poor, although we did not know it at the time. Mum bought us a tree, now I would call it a Charlie Brown Christmas tree. It was scraggly with few branches. We didn’t care. Mum popped popcorn on our gas stove so that we could string it as a Future HBCU Graduate Classic T Shirt. Together, we made our decorations. It was a Xmas wonder because we were never able to see the tree until Christmas morning. That year was particularly hard for Mum, as our rent was expensive for her. I must admit that at the time I did not understand how awful it must have been for her to be so poor with three girls to support, all alone with no family help. Anyway, we went on with our Christmas doing, with Mum apologizing for not being able to buy us presents. She explained that at least we would have a nice dinner where we would be able to eat until we were full. That would be a treat because we were so often hungry. There was never enough food. We went to bed looking forward to the morning surprises. Just before we fell sleep there was a knock at the door. I can still hear mum saying, “Yes, I am Shirley J.” The other person began to explain that their class had adopted us for Christmas.

Of the red cup controversy, Daniel Cox, director of research at the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI), says that while “some folks in media are making light of it, the debate really does capture a Future HBCU Graduate Classic T Shirt of anxiety among Christians that they are losing their market share as America has come to represent a broader sense of experiences. This rising tide of racial, religious and ethnic pluralism is emblematic of a much larger fear.”That fear, he says, is discrimination. “For a lot of Evangelicals, it’s less about being refused service or that kind of pernicious discrimination and more of a broader sense that the culture is no longer reflecting your views, being pushed aside in favor of a new cultural pluralism — ads that feature gay families and people of different races and creeds. And that is a shift away from the way these people grew up.” That was at least some of the sentiment feeding the outcry over Simon Malls displacing traditional Christmas. Says FDC’s Stone: “[Simon Malls was] trying to have their cake and eat it, too. They want all of the business of those Christians and they don’t want to alienate anyone. What’s the difference between a glacier and a Christmas tree? The change doesn’t really bother me that much until I ask myself: Why, to what end? They stripped it to strip away the connectivity to Christmas, and if we can strip away Christmas and any relationship with it, and that seems to be their goal, that goal is offensive to me as a faith-driven consumer”.

My dad was the one who made the Xmas season awesome for me. From the day after Thanksgiving to the day we finally took down the tree in January, he made everything feel special. He’s the one who made the turkey soup, he’s the one who always made sure I got the bigger piece of the wishbone, he made sure we kept the tradition of going up to the Santa Cruz Mountains to cut down a fresh Xmas tree every year. He put the lights on the tree, he built the fire every evening, he was the one to make sure that carols were playing on the record player every evening. So as an adult, I don’t have any hard feelings for his decision to tell me about Santa. My daddy had a jolly belly, his cheeks got rosy when he’d had a few drinks, and though he didn’t “Ho Ho Ho” necessarily, he did have a great chuckle. I think in my young mind, I just dropped the beard and red suit and transformed the image into my dad. The reason why he told me Santa wasn’t “real” is the best part of the story. You see, I found a magazine one day with a picture of a lady in a red velvet coat with white furry trim, a Santa hat, a black leather belt and thigh high stiletto boots. But you could see her…umm…you know…her (shh…boobies). I looked inside at the pull out photo and you could see a lot more than just that! I thought it was funny that she liked kittens but that she was called a “bunny” for some reason. There were some funny cartoons and lots of articles in the [[Future HBCU Graduate Classic T Shirt]]. I just didn’t understand why all the women were, you know.

Maybe that’s why I just love Santa, Rudolph, Frosty the Snowman, Christmas decor, Christmas Trees and Christmas MUSIC! Cause we never really had it…though my parents always had Xmas music on as we lit Hanukkah candles and opened Hanukkah presents. Haha. We never had stockings, or left cookies out for Santa, cause he passed over our house. Blah and ugh. Yea, as kids we were a little resentful of that. sighs. I remember once as a little kid my mom took me to the mall to get my pic with Santa and when he asked me (this little blonde hair blue eyed girl) what I wanted for Xmas I looked at him and I started crying. I said I am Jewish… think I yelled at him…you don’t ever come to my house. And, he looked at me like so confused and lost…the $10 dollar an hour Santa was at a loss for words, not sure what to say to me…..I held on to his arm and I begged him to come to our house just this one time. My mom had to pull me away. He seemed relieved however, he did promise me he would come. And that year we left cookies out for him (in the shape of Jewish stars and Dreidels) and carrots on the lawn for the Future HBCU Graduate Classic T Shirt. And what do you know, he actually did come to my house…. I will say I was so so happy. sighs oh the joys of being a child.

Our children cannot choose the communities into which they are born. And not everyone can earn a sustainable living in the sparsely populated country to make it possible for them to grow up with the peace, safety, and freedom to roam. What is safe for children where you are? That is the crux of this question. When children are in safe places there is no need for such careful parenting supervision. I had thought my answer to this question should be clear: the amount and quality of supervision depends on the community standards, the child’s abilities, the locus of a title playing outside, and what is reasonable under all the circumstances. Ignoring all of that is not free range parenting, it is thoughtlessness at best. And constant focus on a child with no time and space for freedom from parental scrutiny is also unwarranted.
