Trailer Trash and Forgiveness is a memoir about growing up in the sixties and seventies, when parents believed their children were supposed to be seen but not heard--and that they were always right, before the internet could prove them wrong. Parents often forgot that just because they had a shit childhood didn't mean that their children deserved one as well. Elle Payne detected that something was wrong in her family at a young age, and she knew she wanted no part of it. By sharing stories about her family that are sometimes shockingly na ve and often funny, Elle Payne paints a picture of how generational trauma is passed on--until a five-year-old says, "No thanks," and becomes a black sheep.
