I had a very similar childhood in the US.

I sat at a booth and played with coloring books while my mom worked in a restaurant's kitchen, dad's work was seasonal and very irregular. We didn't drink the tapwater in our little town because it didn't smell right and even came out discolored a few times; instead we'd drive to springs where a bunch of other people got their water too.
