Roaring+1920's+Story

The 1920’s were years no one would forget; it was referred to as the roaring 20’s. Those were the years when the men and women would take along their children and “party.” In the year of 1920 was when the eighteenth amendment started, which outlawed the production and consumption of alcohol. Our story takes place during the 1920’s!

It was a cloudy night, it had been said that a storm was approaching quickly. A mother and her two daughters had earlier been invited to a party celebrating the job of their newly son in-law/ brother in-law. The children’s father left, as they were toddlers; said he couldn’t handle the stress of being a parent.

The three daughters were left with their mother. The oldest being in her mid-teens helped greatly with taking care of her younger sisters. Their mother supporting three children on their own was difficult; the pay wasn’t good which made it much harder. The good thing being that there three girls, made the clothes buying process cheaper, seeing that they would be able to share their clothes.

The two children left with their mother had been dreaming about this party for weeks. Thinking of what they would wear and who they would dace with. The 1920’s was also known as the dance age! Though never experiencing it the children have been told that the dancing was greatly enjoyed.
