I wasn't physically abused much. I was mentally disturbed and I am also traumatized, but other than that I am doing alright. My mom hit me with a shoe once, and also hit me with a bottle, but nothing to complain about. We were a happy family before my parents divorced when I was 8. Aside from a few problems I was happy.

I was hacked open 7 times for surgery and beat up a lot. Besides that, my childhood was pretty good.

Ok...key words: MUCH, mentally disturbed, & traumatized.

And you were happy? Wow. Way to look on the bright side, man.

I think I had a wonderful childhood. My parents never faught, I rarely got in trouble, (I was a good kid) and I wasn't spoiled rotten to the point I expect everything to be given to me now. They always told me they loved me, but still kept me in check.

All in all I'd say I'm pretty balanced folk.

I had some happy times and typical childhood experiences, but I had a terrible mindset on life. I didn't trust people and take them closely because I was very scared of denial and being made fun of and most of all, doing something bad to upset my dad. If my dad wasn't such a jerk I would have been more outgoing and generally have more fun. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger though.

Early childhood was a dream, still miss those times.

Later childhood was pure hell. Many times I thought that "okay, now nothing can't just get worse", but oh yes, it did.

My childhood was something out of a disney movie, I loved it...even after my parent's divorce. Once 6th grade started that's when all of a sudden I was up **** creek without a paddle.

Yea, I had a happy childhood and even though there were a lot of problems, I paid no attention to them. It's just a little while later in life, like during a time when I was in middle school, is when I started having problems that I still reflect on today.

it was ok, but there were some turbulant times during the teen years... as i started to face the real world and exercise my independance, it was clear to me that children have it so good and should never rush growing up.

My childhood was good, but my ascension into adulthood couldn't have been more awkward. That's a phase of my life I never want to see again. Too many regrets from that point, but hind-sight is 20/20. Anyway, I made it through the whole way without so much as one enemy. I think there were probably people that wanted to beat me up, but I broke a kid's nose in 4th grade, so I was established at that point. I also karate kicked a kid in the mouth after he rubbed chocolate on my shirt. That was pretty much the end of it for anyone else bothering me :P

BTW by nature I'm as calm as anyone I know, almost monk-like, but you don't want to be on my bad side. I live my life in peace, so I can't take it when people can't handle their anger.

As a child, yes, I guess I was pretty happy. Teen years wouldn't really be called happy. I had problems with depression and anger, and I was institutionalized at age 13. Not very happy at all. But now i'm 16, almost 17, and I would say that i'm as happy as I have ever been, even though I still have problems with depression from time to time.

For the most part, yes. My early teen years weren't so fun, though. It was a very confusing time.

The best days of my life. It sort of collapsed when I was 11 (I was in Grade 8 then, lots of bullying problems :().

Grade 9 was a fresh start though, absolutely loved Grade 10 (best year by faaar). I'd say I'm still living my childhood (I'm 15 right now), and I still love it, I don't want to grow up.

Yeah, my stepfather and my mother fought like everyday when I was 5-12 and it was kinda traumatizing. My biological father died about 2 months ago and my stepfather almost died in hospital which was also kinda difficult to me but yeah, I have a happy childhood. I had a change to move from other country to other and had some nice experiences and learned other languages.

Can't say it wasn't without it's share of problems, but I was never abused by my family.

I was mentally abused by people who weren't related to me, but hey, that's a hella lot better than parental abuse.

Overall, yeah, I had a pretty good childhood. My family treated me well, I was provided for, I learned a lot, I had friends, etc. I was a happy kid in elementary school. I was always one of the smartest kids in the class, I worked hard, and I had good people skills.

However, looking back on it, a lot of crap happened that could've certainly brought me down... I saw a lot of people around me die (my only grandparent, my dog, a friend, etc.), but I wasn't really a depressed kid or anything. Of course I was depressed around the time of those events, but it didn't affect me in the long run. However, when I saw death for the first time when I was 8 when my grandpa died, my whole perspective changed and I started to think a lot more. It made me grow up a lot. I developed a lot of sleeping problems that have stuck with me since then because I'd stay up all night thinking and being anxious.

Really, though, I was a happy kid. I liked myself and I had a lot of great times.

Pretty good. Parents barely fought with one another, I almost never got hit, my mom loved me a lot, but my dad didn't really seem to care about me that much. I wasn't that spoiled, but because we lived in an "old person" neighborhood, I didn't have any friends to play with that much, but I did have my brother. I think this is what made me so shy to people outside of the family.
