• A kid today told me he didn't give a shit about his family and he meant it

I love my mother to death, and even though we fight here and there over really stupid stuff, and she irritates me, I know for a fact that I'd be nothing without her. She raised me the best she could off her 10 dollar/hour wage as a single parent after my dad left me, and since she had no education that mattered here to speak of (she's from India), it was near impossible for her to take some sort of course and get a different, less shittier job. Anyways point is I respect her to death and what she's done for me since I was 5, and I hope in the future I can be even half a good as parent as she was too me. Hopefully even better.

I Really don't like my dad MY real mom passed on when I was 7, so she really wasn't there for me, my dad got into drugs and alcohol and became really pissed of all the time, he would leave at work at like 5 am, get home at 7, yell at me and my sister, mostly me and blamed me for my mom's death, she died from lung cancer from smoking, which my dad made her start smoking. He would take a shower and leave to go to either band practice, bar or to a concert he had to go to and didn't get home till around 3 AM so I really didn't see my dad often. when I was about 9, my sister was 16, my dad raped my sister. She moved out at the age of 17 and I saw stuck with him alone, I got beat rarely but it did happen. My dad got married again to some bitch which I hate because since shes hard of hearing she gets pissed off real easy about the very smallest of things, she finds one little grain of salt some place and just comes up to me and yells and screams, I'm 16 now, my dad stopped doing drugs but still smokes cigs, I mostly just get yelled at now. But Yeah, I Hate my dad and step mom.
What did I tell you about posting my feelings!? [b] You are SOOOOO dead! Your gonna be wishing you never made this thread, cau- OMG MOM JUST GET ME THAT CAR SO I CAN STOP CRYING![/b]
For the most part i have nothing proud to say of my family. Most of them are dicks and i hardly know much of them other than my mother and father. Both of them are not very bright. (on and off drugs plus very mean words) But i can still remember what they have done for me and just the thought of hurting them or hating them alot makes me sad inside and almost cry. Family should be cherished for what it is.
To be honest, there are times when I hate my parents. But even when I feel like that, I know they only want whats the best for me and will always look after me. People who are disrespectful to there parents are fucking dumb. For example; I was at my friends house around 5 years ago. (I was 12 at the time). and his mother had just got off work. She worked two jobs because my friends dad was an idiot and sat at home and watched t.v all day, unemployed. So she had just worked 10 hours on her feet, doing hard work. My friend made her go out, and get us a movie to watch, a new controller for his PS2 and a pizza. When she came home 3 hours later, she got him one of those smaller controllers with the tiny buttons. He screamed at her. Like legit. because it was too small for his fingers (little pudgy of a guy) and she went back out and got him a new one. I told him how fucking retard he was being, and he told me to leave and we haven't spoken since.
Give the kid time. My mum walked out when I was thirteen, and my dad had always been a bit gruff. I was soft then, and when she left we both went through a really rough couple of years. He was working two jobs to try and make ends meet. I got in a bad way, became really withdrawn. I stopped hanging out with my friends and started skipping school and blowing off homework. I was fighting a losing battle with depression, and dad had to spend most of his time struggling to make ends meet. Whenever he was there, it seemed like his mind was always somewhere else. He was short tempered, and never seemed to know quite just what to say. I was too young to understand that he was just as depressed as I was. I began to hate him for never being there, and for always seeming so damn distant when he was. Things slowly changed for the better. Dad managed to stabilize our financial situation, and we moved into a nice little split-level house. It wasn't glamorous, but after a year of living in his friend's basement it felt great to have our own space. Dad was able to drop the second job, and he began the slow process of learning how to fill the role of both parents. For the first few years, things weren't great. He'd always been short tempered, and mum's leaving put us both in a really bad way. We got into it all the time. Two things happened as I grew older: I started to learn about the way the world really is, and dad started to calm down. We both slowly found a shaky peace with what had happened, and things got better. For what felt like years, I thought I'd hated him. But I grew up, and I saw everything that had happened with new eyes. I saw that dad had never stopped caring about me. He had been busting his ass since the day mom left to try and make sure I had everything I deserved- a house, good clothes, regular meals. He didn't know how else to show how much he cared about me, and I was too young to see everything he was doing just to give me back a stable life. Learning to really appreciate your family, however broken it might seem, is something that comes with time and maturity. Sometimes, maturity is forced on you in an unfair way. This guy you work with may nearly be an adult, but his mind obviously has a lot of growing up to do. Don't hate the kid for it. He's lived an untroubled life. He'll eventually grow up on his own and realize how lucky he's been.
I have great parents. They don't smoke or drink or anything, support me in whatever I do. Could you list some of the arguments he had or were they really all whining about not getting crap?
I hate my mom mainly because she is selfish, stupid, and has [B]tried suing my dad twice[/B] (and succeeded). My dad is a great guy who severely overworks so we can have a better life, he's not self-centered, and he cares about us. He sacrifices a lot. My dad is someone we can count on. My mom is selfish, stupid, and lazy. She wants my dad to pay everything (e.x. car insurance, half of my health insurance) and if she can legally force him she does. The law states that the ex-husband has to pay for any repairs to the house. My mom decided to remodel the floor for fun so she made him pay for half of it, even though she said she was remodeling "for me" (me as in HER). My mom wants my dad to pay half of the doctor's bills, but she doesn't know or even care that he started paying $200 extra a month so that when I went to the doctor she wouldn't have to pay the $35 copay. She is just out to get his money because she sits on her fat, lazy ass at a Church and thinks she's making a good living (she is from Honduras so to all of them she is successful but to me and the U.S. she isn't). Hell, my dad pays $2000 to my mom every month (well, close to it) and she just SAVES it. Problem is she never really buys anything, when she does it's cheap as hell (and the food is usually horrible), and then her excuse for not doing shit with it is that she "spends it all on the bills" even though $2k is WAY more than we need. We even think she is saving it for herself for when I turn 18 (three months left) and my dad only pays alimony. There's a LOT more I could get in to about my mom, but I can't think of it right now because I'm so pissed at her. She's acting exactly like a Democrat does. Do nothing, get something (e.x. the health care, the "spreading the wealth" from Obama, etc. etc.). I can't wait to leave this house and escape this bitch. As for saying your life sucks because you simply don't get the new Call of Duty or whatever, well, that's just fucking stupid.
I think I have good parents, they are far from perfect - My mom is an alcoholic and it caused them to split - but I know they love me and do everything they can to make my sister and I happy. I didn't get nice things as a kid, I mowed lawns to fund my computer and LEGO habits, but I think in the end I was a stronger person because of my upbringing.
itt: whiney bitches
My parents threw me out and told me to never come back.... I left. We didn't speak for ~4 years.
i support my family but kids today are fucking little pricks because thier parents dont give hem shit their so spioled some people think they deserved it because in the future they cant spoil themselves but what if they were abused when they were kids or raped but if they're are no signs of physical abuse they shouldn't bitch so yeah.
My parents are very prone to get on my nerves, but I don't hold it against them. It's only because they want me to do well.
[QUOTE=Ahraz;20896491]My family abused me and starved me as a child. force me not to hate them.[/QUOTE] The internet has shocked me. I had no idea this shit was as common as it is. The fact that you got 2 agrees (and counting) in a thread viewed by ~2000 people means this is way too common. We need harsher punishments for parents who abuse children.

Who knows why this is, but too many parents should never have been parents.
I don't gripe at my parents but hell they piss me off from time to time, when my dad gets into a drunken rage or my mom does. My mom might die soon too, she's been smoking a long time, she coughes constantly till the point she pukes and she does 2+ packs a day. But if my parents ever taught me one thing it's the value of money, how to manage it, and how to save it. My dad also helped me with computers.
[QUOTE=Keeshond dog;20892904]I know what you mean OP. I thought i hated my mother. One of the last things i said to her was that i hated her and i wouldnt go to her funeral. I didn't know she would die a week later.[/QUOTE] :regd09: [editline]08:36PM[/editline] [QUOTE=stanm;20908029]itt: whiney bitches[/QUOTE] the day i realized stanm is a hardcore kid who looks down upon those who get abused by their parents and can call them whiny bitches, obviously because his life is a lot worse.
I really do not like kids who rant and rave about their parents and how totally lame and unfair their parents are. I hate all my family, except for my dad, for legit reasons I do not feel like going in to, and it fills me with anger whenever I see kids whining and parentbashing for a curfew and not being able to take their car or some shit. Alot of people do not realize what they have.

[QUOTE=wildwill;20895690]You should seek professional council. If someone talking about their family that way makes you rage, you have issues that need to be worked out. Inner peace comes from within, remember that.[/QUOTE] That was redundant. That's like saying an inside dog lives inside.
[QUOTE=Identity;20892267]He'll realize sooner or later that family is important. Maybe not now, but in the future he will.[/QUOTE] pretty much this.

[QUOTE=dutchah;20898932]Just a question: How are you physically disabled and what caused it?[/QUOTE] I might have written that badly, he's (father) the one who's disabled. It's unlike to pass to me as it isn't genetic. The reason I resent it is because I see all these things he did with my sister before he became like that and the fact he did no such things with me. He became bitter and drunk because of it instead.
My mom smokes since she was 14. I dont want to lose her!!! :frown:
It would help if you used the word "asshole" instead of "kid" doubtless of the synonym when you used "kid" I thought you ment a child kid, not someone who is 10 years younger than you.

[QUOTE=Dylan_94;20912243]That was redundant. That's like saying an inside dog lives inside.[/QUOTE] How so? Someone telling you that they hate their parents shouldn't make a person rage. They may find it distasteful, but rage? No, if it makes you rage then you have stuff built up inside that you need to have worked out. "I wanted to hit him but I didn't, I mean what he said hit me right where it hurts."
[QUOTE=Zovox;20913458]My mom smokes since she was 14. I dont want to lose her!!! :frown:[/QUOTE] I got my mum to stop smoking by crying, you should try it
What's wrong with hating your parents? What if they're complete assholes? Assholes can have kids too. What if Hitler had kids, and they didn't agree with his actions? Nothing wrong with hating your parents for a good reason.
