When my dad was out of a job, with 4 KIDS and a wife to feed, me the oldest, I gave him my stereo, my headphones, my tapes, stuff to sell so we could EAT. I am very proud of what I did to contribute to my family when it was in trouble, not nag on how I wanted this or that.
awww that's so sweet. You give your dad your stuff to sell just so your family can have food on your table. You are very caring This is one of the sweetest stories I 've heard in a while.
