>>> Young Rickenbacker was admittedly a bad boy who smoked at age 5 and headed a group of mischievous youngsters known as the Horsehead Gang, but he was imbued with family values by frequent applications of a switch to his posterior by his strict father

He quit school at 12 when his father died in a construction accident, and he became the major family breadwinner <<<

Heavens Were was Child protection services His self-esteem will be hurt. SS needs to get them on SSI, FS, WF Now!
