note: this series of topics is meant to illustrate how rough of a childhood i had, because whenever i mention it people always dismiss it as "first world problems"

recap: my mother is a major germaphobe

so one of the things she was most paranoid about was dogs pooping on grass. she absolutely found it barbaric that dogs would poop on grass and some owners would just leave it there. so she banned everyone in the house from ever walking on grass or dirt. if i ever did she would scream at me until i was in tears. eventually i just gave in and just never walked on grass for fear of her repercussions. so during recess whenever all the kids played outside in the grass, i would just stand on the edge on the pavement watching instead of participating...

to this day she still screams at me whenever i walk on grass but i've learned to just tune her out
