My mom's mom died when she was 17. She's been on her own since.

A bit.Both my parents came from really poor families. My dad's family struggled, but made due. My mom's family was evicted from a variety of different homes, apartments, etc. Her dad was a drunk and blew all the money on booze, and then his girlfriend [note: not my mom's mom] shot him in the back and killed him less than a week before I was born.So there's that.

My parents had great careers, provided more than enough for my brother and I, and have been married for 42 years.They made it.

My Grandpa moved to Yugoslavia with his parents to work on the family farm during the Great Depression era, had a horribly yet hilarious sounding obese Rooster, KO'd his college professor in one punch, couldn't go through with college because the Nazis invaded, fought against the Nazis and Communists, came home from the war, then escaped with his mom and dad through the Iron Curtain, got a security kind of job in Italy(not really sure what), then eventually came back to America.

Heh, I still get a kick though out of how my mom told me how he met a guy that was part of the Nazi force that was deployed in Yugoslavia and how they talked like they were friends about the whole thing. I'll always look up to him.
Do any of your parents have any interesting pasts?
