I was a lower middle-class kid. My family had no money. There was no room in our small house where there were already four kids, including myself, living.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm from a middle class family, but my father squandered all the money, so I didn't really run around with rich people.
I had a really hard time growing up; we were a large family, and we didn't have much money at home.
My parents were determined to move into the middle class.
I was an only child. We were so poor, my parents and I had the same room.
Honestly, I grew up in pretty modest circumstances. We were a middle-class family.
I grew up middle class. My father was a public functionary who didn't leave an inheritance, just debts.
There was an undercurrent of poverty throughout my childhood. We lived with my grandmother in her two-bedroom flat, and I slept with my parents. We had cheap holidays, I had to save for my bike and get a paper round as soon as I was old enough.
At home, growing up, we weren't really poor. We had everything we needed, we just didn't have what we wanted.
I was not from a middle-class family at all. I did not have middle-class possessions and what have you. But I had middle-class parents who gave me what was needed to survive in society.
I was the second of six kids. I wouldn't say we were poor; we had no money. That's different.
