I was an 80's child. Our HS band did a half time show of both Prince and MJ. My mom broke my vinyl

Purple Rain and Thriller albums

guess what...I got new ones and kept them hidden from her

it was such a shock to come home from school to discover those albums "proudly broken" and in the trash.

Our mother was an odd one.

Once we came home to my older sister's bikini cut up and hung on the indoor clothesline.

we didn't even know she knew there was a bikini.
