The different old days

One of my kids pulls out a bunch of eggs to do whatever with it and my mind dashed to the past. I burst out laughing . The kids looked strangely at me and I had to tell them

When I was a kid , I never saw egg in my house . And when I go out and see it , I was afraid someone who knew me could see me looking at a whole boiled egg . You see growing up , if you are seen eating boiled egg ,they say you are going to be a thief because you like big things . Sounds ridiculous now but then , no matter how you acquired the egg , you are asking for beating or in the least a stern warning .
