My parents never wanted to run the air conditioner

I know that our cooling bills entirely get up there, and if our parents were having money concerns back then, I can see how it would have been hard to make ends meet if they were running the air conditioner all summer time long.

When I was a kid, our parents would never run the air conditioner system in the summer. I don’t entirely know what they had against central a/c, but no matter how much our siblings and I begged them to, they just would not turn it on. My dad used to say that it was a complete waste of money to run the central cooling system in the summer, and our Dad always just agreed with him.Since our Dad was pretty freezing natured, I think that it didn’t entirely bother her at all to not use the a/c but our siblings and I thought that it was terrible. Half the summer, the people I was with and I would try to sleep over at friends’ houses just so that the people I was with and I would not have to be in our own house in the heat, and now that I am older, I can kind of understand a little bit better why our parents did not want to run the cooling system in the summer, central a/c is really overpriced, especially around here where the temperature outside is entirely hot while the people I was with and I were in July and August. I know that our cooling bills entirely get up there, and if our parents were having money concerns back then, I can see how it would have been hard to make ends meet if they were running the air conditioner all summer time long. It’s funny how you can see things differently once you become an adult. I’m ecstatic I do not have this problem, though. My youngsters do not know how lucky they are to be able to use the air conditioner all summer time long.
