I just copied this from my journal that I just posted in. My night went from pretty good to just down right bad. I would like to say right now, sorry for the vulgar language.



I'm so ****ing tired of this ****. I asked if my friends could come spend the night. **** head said yes. So we get chris's computer and bring it over to play games, well we get here, and the **** starts yelling at me, and says we can't do it. SO we argue and I just tell my friends to leave. By this time my mom came home from work, and kinda keeps us from taking out heads off. I swear next time this **** happens, I'm just leaving, and I flat out told the **** that. I'm trying to remember what I said...(5 minutes have passed) well I can't remember what exactly was said, but it was something like "You can keep this **** out of here." "Fine, you wont see me again." "Fine with me."

So yes, IF this does happen, I will go to the court house and get the required papers to get an emancipation if I'm not already 18.

Don't give me this bull **** when you post your comments about how well I have it here and such. Yes I do have it well, but I will not tolerate this ****. I would rather do it on my own then put up with him. You can bet your *** I will live on my own, in a run down apartment or in my truck, my *** won't be looking back.

 

Who's the **** though? Is this your step-father? Father? Shed some light for me here...

 

Birth father. Parents aren't divorced yet. I wish my mom would divorce the ****ing *** hole, she deserves better.

 

LGJ -

Relax. It isn't the end of the world.

I know it sucks when parents seem unreasonable, but they are people too. Not excusing, just pointing out a basic fact.

Don't sell yourself out by making a decision that has long-term effects on YOUR well being.

Regardless of what you think now, there is no better opportunity for a young person than to live at home and get an education (except for maybe living away from home and getting an education ).

Have you NEVER treated someone unfairly or unjustly?

Not defending, because I don't know your situation personally. But, I have a father and I am a father to a 13 year old. It is not easy being a Dad. Try as you will, it can be hard to leave work at work and not bring it home with you. Top it off with all the things a parent is responsible for at home too and it can be trying at times.

Sorry you had a bad time. Hope you can forgive and forget. You will live much longer and happier that way.

 

Thanks for the reply. I see where your coming from, but let me give you a little more light...all we wanted to do was connect the computer together (LAN) and play games. Wouldn't let us do that, just started hollaring off the bat, I'm a pretty reasonable guy, and I don't get hot tempered, but this just set me off. He gave no reason to why we couldnt, just said "get that **** out of here." Yes I will forgive, but not anytime soon. Thank you for your dad insight.

 

Good for you. For what it is worth, I try to remember some of the things my parents did that I did not like when I was a kid. Then, I try to be sure I don't do those same things to my son.

What can I say, I'm not perfect...

Good luck. Be sure to vent here. It's a good place to be...

 

Ahhh Shad app!!
Just be glad I'm not your pappy, I woulda biatch slapped ya to the moon.
"snicker"

Just kidding buddy, suck it up, and let it blow over.
We are here to listen to your rant and cheer you up.

So chear up already punk!!

 

I know where you are coming from. I've had the same feelings at times. I still live with my parents, but I have my own "apartment separate from the house that they rent to me, so I'm their tenant. One good thing about home and be sure to remember this FREE FOOD and all BILLS PAID!!! I learned the hard way I moved out for 9 months and was going to college full time(still am) and working 2 jobs(40+ hrs per week) to pay bills. Lets just say it wasn't fun. I had hardly anytime to due stuff I enjoy. It was either work, sleep or school. Living at home isn't bad. Heh my Dad still give me the same crap when I get a new mod for truck. He says, "Why are you buying that crap?", "Next thing I know you'll have that thing where it won't run and I'm not fixing it!", This is my favorite: "Your truck is not a race car!"

 

I think I can relate.

My parents split up and us kids lived with my father. My dad was rotten to all of us. My older sibs moved out one by one. Then it was just me and my little sister. We (I) got the brunt of what my dad was dishing out at that point. We ended up moving in with my mom.

Life with mom was better but not by much. After a few years I couln't take it any more. I quit high school and moved out. I lived with my sister, brother in law and their two kids. It was much cooler. No one telling me what to do. Eventually I saved up enough money to get my own place.

So I got out. In retrospect I didn't make all the right moves. I made a lot of mistakes that it took years to correct. I also have been able to look at what my parents were going through from a different perspective. My dad was rotten to us (he didn't beat us or do anything all that bad) because he was struggling to cope with the divorce. He really didn't have a clue on how to handle things at that point. My mom, I found out years later by almost loosing her, had been suffering for years with depression.

I now work for my father. I have the utmost respect for him. Yes he did screw things up for us kids years ago, but we are now able to better understand why. I have a good relation with my mom, and really respect her. It took an earth shaking event for us kids to understand what she has been going through for a long time. So in time I learned that my parents are not more than regular human beings. Far from perfect, just like me.

Hopefully you can get past this and future events, and are able to come out the other side understanding why parents can be so rotten. Hopefully you are able to forgive them for being human.

 

So all of this just because your dad would not let your friends stay over? Could be a lot worse man but, I guess only you really know your pops.

 

Well we both woke up this morning calm, and back to being good buds. Thanks guys for the comments, and I'll try to remember some of this stuff for future reference. You guys rock

 

I'm sure all of us a F-150 breathed a collective sigh of relief when we read your last post.
You know LGJ, I've always thought you showed more wisdom then your years. I still feel you have a good handle on maturity. When you started this thread, I though it was totally out of character for you. I guess we all blow every now and then, it's a good tension reliever. Glad yours is over now and you're back to being yourself. Again, the maturity shows.

 

Talk about a esteem booster I love this place.

 

I really have to agree with that. It is great to see "young adults" act as mature or more mature then adults themselves. I have read many of LGJ's post and for the most part they really show some thought behind them and reasoning...

You'll be ok LGJ, just take the bumps in the road the best you can and the good times will be even better...

 

Don't get too confident, we still have SPEEDO pictures.
