Seniors, what gift, didn't you get as a child, and wanted so bad that you still want it today?

Question

I always wanted a miniature train set with the people and
village, like a friends' dad had. I still am fascinated by them today. Instead I got a wind up train that broke fast. It was made
of tin. I would still like one to watch, even at my age LOL.
Did you want something so bad, and didn't get it? And you
still would like it today, or that it really bothered you growing
up, that you never got it? I am interested in what the older
seniors have to say on this. Especially those who have lived
60 plus years.

I'm 64 too, Donya. I don't remember that
name. Maybe I'd recognize the 'look'
if I saw one tho.
I remember so many dolls I admired.
And never got but a few from a grandmother. And when I was too old for
them, my other grandmother got me one.
To set on my bed, she said. I was so
disappointed that she waited all those
years to give me a doll or a toy. She
would crochet things for us or give us
practical things. But never something to
play with. I don't remember what happened to that doll, come to think of
it. Anyway, I can identify with how you
feel.

Answer 1

I always wanted a Barbara Anne Scott doll but Santa didn't have enough to go around.(they were too expensive) It still brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it. I haven't thought about that in years. I'm 64.

Answer 2

God is, continuously became, and continuously would be. prepared faith (or cults as you so frankly portray them), no remember if that is Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, or Christianity, is the discovery of guy (and that i advise the species besides because of the fact the gender). guy isn't infallible and does make undesirable possibilities some cases. you won't be able to hold an entire team in charge for the movements of one. I continuously concept being Christian meant which you're forgiving. So, recover from your self and ask your self WWJD. in case you look on the historic previous of prepared faith you will discover that it fairly is evolving continuously. And what became as quickly as seen the perimeter (the seekers of non secular freedom who flocked to American seashores interior the 1600's have been on the perimeter) finally will become the norm. So enable the Witnesses be. they have in simple terms as lots precise to unfold their non secular innovations door to door as you do laptop to laptop. it fairly is fantastically self absorbed to contain your self into the gang referred to as authentic Christians. How do you be attentive to you're precise and that they are incorrect?

Answer 3

I always wanted a doll with rooted hair. I wanted to be able to wash it and fix it different ways. They were much more expensive than the ones with hair clued to a net that fell off in a month.

Answer 4

I always wanted an 1865 2 and a half dollar gold piece. Never got it and now they are so rare it and cost so much I couldn't even afford to buy one without winning the lottery.

Answer 5

Sorry Shari - I am 60 plus - but am too old to remember my childhood wants and don't wants. I pretty much had everything I needed - but that does not mean that I had everything I wanted! Honestly cannot think of one single item that I coveted! CJ

Answer 6

Most of what ever I wanted that I didn't get, I just buy for myself now. I buy myself a birthday and a Christmas present. It's better than hoping someone will figure out what I want most and get it for me.

Answer 7

A pony.

Answer 8

a flute
