Physical Discipline?

Looks like I underestimated your ability to put 2 and 2 together, but yeah, it was me, the reason my other post was like that was cuz I wasn't paying attention.

My dad used that kind of punishment on me and it only made me piss him off even more cuz I hated him so much. He ended up kicking me out of his house and I left to live with my mom. It's been almost 2 years since then and I still don't really like him, even after he "apologized".

[Zeffie]

My mom never apologized to me, she never calls me, writes, or any of that. My dad says thats her way of 'punishing' me for telling my dad what really happened. But thats fine with me, I don't really want to talk to her anyway.

Yeah, if she's doing that kind of babyish stuff (no offense) then maybe you shouldn't talk to her. Let her realize that she'll have to grow up a little if she wants you in her life. I speak from experience.

I hope you're right.
Also, when he dragged me to the bathroom, he didn't help me stand and walk or pull me there, he grabbed my arm and said 'Get your a$$ in there!' He never had enough decency to apologize either, the night before I left, he told me formally to get my a$$ out of his house and never come back.

Jeez. It's hard to deal with that kinda stuff, but you seem to have a good head on your shoulders, so I think you'll be fine. And if you ever need to vent, this is the thread to do so! I think.......

[Zeffie]

Its nice to know that there are people who will listen.

[njdss4]

Anytime, Zeffie. We'll just have to hope not too many people will have to deal with this in the future. I know my kids never will. If I ever have any.........

[Zeffie]

Yeah, same here. I also doubt I'll ever have kids. I can't stand little children. They always pull this #:

Yeah, I'm bad with kids. They can be really dumb. And that's cuz they don't know anything yet, but they're still dumb. What's weird is they don't really learn anything until they do it wrong. "Don't eat too much food!" Then they eat everything they can find and throw up.
