Never played sports, never had a real father-son moment, nor a mother-son moment, never had a long lasting friend.
Never had a PC.
[QUOTE=Don Knotts;42464400]Never had chickenpox[/QUOTE]
I heard it's dangerous to get them as an adult.
Never got into pokemon
I never had a console, but I did have a lot of experience hogging my friend's PS2 to beat some game.

Didney worl?
Speaking of which, my brother did go there on the same school where I am now.
Back on topic, POSITIVE childhood memories are completely absent.
My life was terrible from 6 to 13 years old.
I just couldn't function properly until my parents put me to a psychiatric institute.
Ever since I finally can get to school and am running exams already.
I was never really interested in superheroes or superhero-comic books.
didn't had internet, untill 2007
Memories of my grandmother. By the time I was old enough to have non-occluded memories of her, she had had Alzheimer's for long enough that she wasn't herself anymore. She passed away a year and three days ago, after 11 years of fighting it.
First Nintendo console I owned was the Game cube. Never owned a N64.
Thats probably why I dont get all the nintendo fanboys who treat nintendo like they're videogame's savior.
Never watched most of those old animated Disney movies. Only one I saw back then was the Lion King.
It was only last year that I finally watched Aladdin.
I never went on a trip where my mom and dad didn't argue about something stupid, ruining all sense of fun.
No cable or video games.
Been working on the latter though, reclaiming my childhood one bit at a time.
[QUOTE=zombini;42463137]It's a good thing that those things never happened to you. I have muscle damage in my left calf muscle from an ATV accident 3 years ago, and it fucks with me in winter, getting stiff and painful. It's only going to get worse as i get older. Consider yourself lucky that you haven't had any of those things happen. Breaking an arm can lead to chronic pain, a gunshot wound can lead to nerve and muscle damage. Getting hurt doing dumb things is not part of "being a boy". Also, never been to Disneyland or Disneyworld, but i have been to six flags, a 5 star hotel, New York, New Orleans, and Vegas, and let me tell you, those places are overrated to hell and back.
[b]There isn't shit to do in New York[/b], aside from ride on the subway and try not to suffocate. The funnest part of New Orleans is the French Quarter, and that's closed off for anyone under 21 past dark now. A 5 star hotel is extremely boring, but is nice to stay in for a while. Six Flags is overrated, but can be really fun. Vegas has the same problem as New Orleans, all of the truly fun stuff isn't permitted for kids. You haven't missed much.[/QUOTE]
Did you even try to look for anything? There are an absurd amount of fun things to do in New York City, and all of the other places you've mentioned. I would absolutely LOVE to go to any one of them.

Where did you get that from, as someone who lives in New Orleans, it's open to everyone. Only thing is the bars and clubs that have age restrictions. Anything, including Bourbon Street which harms the eyes of children, has no age restriction unless it involves liquor(like I said bars and clubs)
I've never seen snow, let alone made a snowman or had a snowball fight.
I never talked to my grandparents because they speak another language

It is. I was vaccinated though.
My childhood went away when I was forced into kumon. I've noticed right after that I ended up shying away from people I used to call friends and I never really went out do to the combined workload that school and kumon created. Also I was in karate at the time and I had too much shit to do.
Trick or treating with a group of friends back in the elementary days, because my parents liked to be super overprotective. But oh you bet they let my other brother one year older than me go off with his.
Never had cable, didn't have a computer or internet until around '07 so all my memories of that kind of stuff are from the rare occasions I went to someone else's house.
Didn't start off with consoles or a PC gaming-wise, had a Gameboy color.
Never had chickenpox even though I wasn't vaccinated until I was ~15. When I was very young I protested getting the second shot so much that the doctor gave up, didn't go to the doctor for years, then got 1/2 the vaccination but missed the window for the second one a couple times until finally my school said I'd get kicked out if I didn't have it. :v:
I dont have a memory of being in a hospital as a patient. This would not be that unusual but I have been to one. I dont remember it at all though even though I was old enough and have pictures (really bad concussion, I was in for a few days but cant remember a thing).
One good thing is that I have no memory of losing a family member that was close to me, everyone that passed away either died when I was too young to remember or was not born yet.
Never broke a bone.
Breaking bones sucks, you should feel happy that you haven't.
I never actually had a conversation with my grandparents.
As Mexican immigrants, they only spoke Spanish, and unfortunately for me, my parents felt like it'd be best if I only spoke English.
Never watched any films. The first film I watched was Independence Day (watched it when I was 13). I wasn't even old enough, but you know I live on the edge anyway.
* Never went to school
* Never owned a console
* Never broke a bone
* Never had any real circle of friends, mostly just followed brothers and sisters around when they had friends over
* Had internet but didn't really start using it until '05 or '06
* Never learned to ride a bike
* Never went camping
* Haven't played a great deal of games that everyone else pines over
* Haven't seen a great deal of shows that everyone else pines over
Never had a birthday party.
No grandpa telling how it was "back in his day", because both of them died before I was even born.
