No you don't but you likely will.
Your children go on the hobo yet, probably not. My father was 12 when he hit the hobo trail.
When I was born in 1938 my father was working, cutting cross ties for the railroad, in river bottom where work began on site at sunup and ended at sundown, six mile walk both ways, the pay was 50 cents a day.
I hope and pray that we will not see those days again, but if we continue to deny our roots, then I guess the ending that was written 6000 years or so ago will turn out to be true after all.
I was born in 1943 and my mother told me (dad wouldn't talk about it) how my dad did the same as your father except he was plowing behind a one horse plow from sun-up to sun-down.
My grandmother (mothers mother) would give a free breakfast to who-ever chopped her cooking wood for the day each morning.
She had to change that because they kept coming earlier and earlier to beat the next guy there for the meal and were waking everyone chopping wood at 3:00AM.
My dad did tell me how they had to hide the plow down the water well when the bank came to repossess it.
