I love reading about all the tree climbers and rooftop hoppers here.

My escape hatch was in my head. There was nowhere to hide from my three older bossy brothers or my two younger snotty brothers. But I could tune out everyone when I was reading. Standing right next to me, my mom would repeat things three or four times before she'd get a response. Throughout my life, and it's been 74 years, I found I could ignore people and really not feel an ounce of guilt. It's like having a room of one's own.
