How could granddaddy tell us what he did not dare know? My poor granddaddy never uttered the word "pregnant". It was considered too coarse and vulgar. He always used the term; "in family way".
I was a fast little thing; "She ain't in no family way…that heifer ain't even MARRIED! she pregnant!"
My granddaddy always encouraged my mouth. Encouraged me to always speak up for myself. Most importantly to think critically, to examine thoroughly . To scrap or fight if the need to arise. He did teach me how to shot a .22 rifle. Admitted some people needed killing.
