So I guess you could say you did learn something positive from your dad despite his bad behavior a lot of times. You’re making sure your kids have a good childhood. :) LOLing at your description of what your kids did to you with those colors. |

Not to hurt our humble brethren is our first duty to them, but to stop there is not enough. We have a higher mission--to be of service to them wherever they require it. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men." -St. Francis of Assisi "The greatness of a nation and it's moral progress can be judged by the way in which its animals are treated." -Gandhi Thread: Top 10 Opera Auditions (My Music Thread) |

The twisted selfishness leaves with him and you are now free. Displaying empathy for the loss of your child’s pet, means you are not broken. Don’t be too hard on yourself. |

User ID: 77347043 Poland 06/01/2019 09:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Some of the easiest deaths to deal with were people I was mad at. It's funny because two people I generally liked both managed to irritate the heck out of me shortly before they died (no, I didn't kill them). In a way, that anger they give you is a gift. One that makes their death easier to manage. I don't know what lies they told you, but I can promise they were lies. There's a fine line between training, trauma, and torture. |

As theybage theybreveal the childhood anxiety they’ve hidden all these decades. They get hysterical about money. Those little white clapboard churches had kids my generation in the Monday morning school bus with eyes like saucers a s serious anxiety about the devil. My dad was crazy too. He couldn’t help it and sometimes he was really fun. We are all crazy. Just remember to take your makeup off before you go to bed.. Folks is thinking of you. |

Even the one I liked. The only thing I took away from it was now it's my turn, and I damned well do a better job than they did. Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall free me. Or something |

(OP) User ID: 76206631 United States 06/01/2019 09:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My father died last week...I found his body.. Quoting: Dace Thread: My Dad Died....... It's weird....I've felt like I should feel bad because I haven't shed a tear for him.....but I can't make myself feel bad for not doing so.... He was hooked on prescription meds when I was growing up, fanatically Pentecostal religious and like a Jeckyl and Hyde that could snap at anything. I was chased out of the house with a baseball bat in middle school because he found a soggy Playboy mag I found in the woods.... In highschool, we lived in a duplex....I stayed and rented out the 2nd half after graduation because I didn't want to leave my mom and my little brother alone with him.....After I was 21 he chased me out with a .44 mag because he saw me come in with a bottle of whisky... He also used to wake my mother up in the morning by dry-clicking a 12 gauge shotgun to her head and telling her she deserved to die for polluting her holy temple (body) that god had given her. Thank god my mother finally divorced him,,,,,but he got custody of my little brother. When my lil' bro turned 18, he left with the clothes on his back and turned up halfway across the country just to get away from the fucker. . .... ...... But yeah......I never patched things up but I eventually started keeping in contact, especially after Dad got sick and needed help...I may hate the things he did and how he screwed up everyone's lives but he's my dad.....I wouldn't be here without him. But so far....not one damn tear for him....I've tried... I've tried to summon up good memories, etc....but nothing. Then.. Today......my kids' guinea pig died, and they've been devastated. Having to see them deal with the grief of their beloved pet and friend.....drawing pictures of themselves with their little buddy.....left me in tears. Been trying to take their minds off of it....so I just went through my 5 yr old daughter's 'beauty shop'....I now have blue, yellow, green and pink finger/toenails and my face resembles something between a Klingon and an ugly-ass geisha. I know....not the place for this...just had to vent and I can't post this shit on FB. Dude...wow. I know...lol Whenever I get his ashes and go plant him in the family plot......it's a toss-up between just pissing on the spot or planting some flowers first and telling myself I'm fertilizing them. Can't force a tear for my dad but I lose it over a damn guinea pig. I'm pissed at myself for not being mad at myself....It's a completely new fucked-up feeling that I am not enjoying. |
