Considering I was a child born to parents who were 16 and 19 years old (who are still happily married by the way) I had it pretty good....
i had the easy bake oven one year (i didnt even ask for it, my mom thought it looked cool) and i had a blast with it... but i lost that damn handle that sticks into the side to get the cakes and it went into the closet to never emerge...
i had the barbie town house with the elevator up the side...which was a ton of fun... but hurricane andrew ruined its cardboard backing and i had to throw it away
i was weird...i never "wanted" anything.. i was very content with my books (im a nerd i know) and the one cabbage patch doll i had that went with me EVERYWHERE... i took very good care of what i did have and didnt really crave "newer" things....but once i got newer things they became well loved and well used...
BUT...the one thing i DID want... was a mall madness game.. a friend of mine had it and we played it all the time..i was obsessed with it... but thinking back i dont think i ever verbalized that "want" to my mom... hmmm maybe i would have gotten it. i dunno
