My mom bought my brother a sega from a garage sale years after it was a popular gaming system. It didn’t change the love my brother had for it. My brother and I routinely took care of ourselves after school as parents were working. One day my dad came home early and was irate that my brother wasn’t home. He then proceeded to make me throw his sega in the dumpster of our complex, and told me if I brought back in, I would be hit with the belt. This was his idea of a punishment towards my brother. In my 8 year old brain, I obviously don’t want to get hit and did as I was told. The look on my brothers face when he came home and my dad told him what happened to his sega was just heart breaking. It still makes me sad when I think about it.
