Before helicopter parents.

Before anyone was watching.
Spit Out the Tongue: Misadventures of an 80s Feral Kid is a funny, honest memoir about growing up Gen-X-when childhood was largely unsupervised, bad ideas were educational, and somehow... we lived.
This book is a collection of true stories from a time when:
bikes didn't have helmets
parents trusted streetlights
MTV raised us
and be home later was a complete plan
Written with dry Gen-X humor and zero whining, this isn't nostalgia fluff-it's recognition.
You'll find:
laugh-out-loud moments
instantly familiar memories
pop culture, mixtapes, and poor decisions
and the quiet realization that none of this would be allowed now
This book is:
- short enough to finish in a weekend
- funny enough to reread
- honest without oversharing
- safe enough to give as a gift
Perfect for:
Gen-X birthdays
holidays and stocking stuffers
Anyone who survived childhood without supervision
If you grew up feral, free, and mostly unsupervised-
This book will feel like home.
