A couple of my friends and myself have often wondered why our mothers were 'crazy' and very non-mothering types. Our mothers all told us they hated us and wanted to get rid of us, even when we were small children. That and a lot of other irrational behavior about money. All of our mothers grew up during the depression, and I often thought it was a vitamin deficiency or something like that but now I think it may have been what Krugman was talking about.
