>1. Not really, though with my parents both being doctors, it was not too
bad. Things got much worse after their arrest by the gestapo
2. My father was for a short time and then escaped from a prisoner of war
camp to join us in Warsaw. Both my parents were then in the Home Army, the
Polish underground army.
3. Yes, it was of value, but there were no goods available and the barter
system operated far better. Clothes for food etc.
4. Very limited. Most of the teaching I had was from home
5. No real time or inclination for hobbies at that time.
6. The Germans treated women as they treted men, badly or very badly.
7. Read books, listen to records, it was forbidden to have a radio, so the
one we had secretly was only used to listen to the BBC news. We went for
walks especially if we were in the country.
