    Imagine making a 12 year old pay for their own portion for a trip to cuba... I wonder what the parents would've said if he had wanted to stay home alone instead of using up all her savings.

      if you're not financially stable enough to go on vacation- ie making your kids help pay- then you shouldn't be going on vacation...

      My dad made my brother and I pay our own way on our trip to Disney World earlier this year. Brother is 24, I’m almost 31 and we both have jobs so his reasoning was we’re old enough and responsible enough to take care of it ourselves. Well I think technically we reimbursed him for our portions. Can’t remember if he made the payment before or after we transferred the money over.
      I think making the 20 year old pay for her way is reasonable as she is an adult. As for the other two…yeah sure the 15 year old may have a job but I doubt it pays enough to go to Cuba and making a 12 year old spend her savings on a family trip instead of a phone which is an absolute necessity in this day and age is fucking insane.
      For reference the WDW trip was like 1200 each and we live in the US. So a trip to Cuba from the US would be miles more expensive.

      Dude same. I was born on a rainy day in Liberia. During my youth, in the turbulent period that was the First Liberian Civil War, I was adopted by Solidus Snake, who named me and became my godfather after he killed my parents. I was subsequently raised as a child soldier and later fought in the country's Civil War in 1989.

    Lemme go on a rant here.
    So this mainly happens to me.
    Parents can be stupid.
    Your child is upset, crying even, having a tantrum and a break down. What do you do?
    A: Calm them down, comfort them, give them their favorite thing (such as playing a movie on tv, etc)
    B: Leave them alone until they calm down, then talk to them.
    C: Spank them. Take away the things that keeps them calm. Lock them in a room, sometimes with the lights off when you know they’re scared of the dark.
    Know what most parents do (from my experience and some friends)
    They choose option C. That option isn’t good, it’s no bueno. Wanna know why? It teaches them to bottle up their anger, sadness, etc, tells them to NOT use things to calm them down, and sometimes even starts SH.
    The fact that my parents have told me that “Just find something else to calm you down.” When they literally lock me in a room, with nothing In it, disappoints me. It even makes it worse when people like me try to tell them “Hey, can you leave me alone for a bit, let me calm down?” And then they don’t let you do that,and then complain “Why didn’t you calm yourself down?” Or when your calming yourself down and then they keep pestering you.
    Like.
    Bro.
    Wtf.
    And then when you tell the truth like “Hey, whenever you do this it really affects me mentally- it feels like abuse. Sometimes it even makes me SH or worse” they go
    “No no, that’s discipline. Stop overreacting you cry baby.”
    Parents, if they somehow get this message and they’ve chosen one of the things in option C, please stop. Try Option A or B instead of taking things away, locking them up, or spanking them.

      yeah, lots of people have said this, and I feel you. it's a cool idea in theory but unfortunately humans are messed up and in all likelihood a license like that will just be used for eugenics or some similar crap. if there was one objective set of parenting qualifications that everyone agreed on that'd be great, but unfortunately that's...never happened in human history. you have to think, who would be in charge of something like that? how could anyone make sure their intentions are pure? what about all the infinite ways that could be used for discrimination? what agendas or biases could be intentionally or unintentionally contained in the test material?
      and if people _do_ get pregnant prior to receiving a license and don't get one, (which _will_ happen, and frequently) what are they gonna do, forced abortion? removal of the child from their birth parents as soon as they're born? it's unenforceable at best, and a dystopian nightmare at worst. It'll also probably cause an economic labor crisis like the one China is dealing with right now due to having their one-child law for so long. And it almost undoubtedly will discriminate against low-income people, and through that other minorities, particularly disabled people and certain ethnic groups. It's the same reason we can't have a test for who can vote, there are just too many opportunities for bias and discrimination for it to ever be practical.

    It always annoys me so much when me and my mother are having an argument about something serious, if she thinks it's not going to go her way or she just gets too annoyed with me, she'll just walk away and sulk in her room. But whenever I try to walk away from an argument, she gets mad at me and doesn't let me leave. One time, I needed to be alone, and I couldn't properly communicate that to her. She was standing in the doorway of my room and wouldn't let me leave, so I had to force my way past her. After that, a bunch more garbage ensued, I ended up trying to hide from her in the basement, and she was going to send me to live with my grandparents two provinces away. She still thinks she was in the right because I didn't explicitly tell her that I needed to be alone, and I was just saying, very clearly distressed, "I don't want to talk to you, can you please just go away?" Wow, quelle suprise that after being raised by her, someone who gets annoyed instead of comforting her children when they're in distress, and was raised by someone who didn't show any emotions other than anger, I wouldn't be able to properly portray my emotions and how I feel.
    For anyone who read that whole thing, thank you for reading, but also sorry you had to read all of that.

      Nah bro, I’ve been through the same thing, except my mother knew I’d be happy to live with my grandmother, so she’d threaten to abandon me at an orphanage we lived near. It always makes me feel a little better knowing I’m not alone in thinking I wasn’t being the asshole during those moments. I’m sorry for what you’re going through, and I’m sorry to say it won’t change. But it may lessen the older you get, it did for me. I have to deal with new shit now about “hiding from my family” and “ignoring people”, but it’s better than dealing with the emotional abuse. It’s too bad seeing your child visually suffering isn’t enough for most parents to stop and question what they’re doing. I hope your mother looks at you someday, sees your heartbreak, and finally just listens. It’s all I’ve ever wanted, and I believe you deserve it too.

      While growing up, man I spent HOURS of my life stomping... KOOPAS... in the original Mario Brothers arcade game. At my local laundromat. And then of course it came out on Nintendo, and I played that, I mean, maybe years of my life, uh, it's an HONOUR, truly, to be able to speak as the man, who created those memories for me, and it's an honour to work alongside them. It's been a lifelong dream of mine to become Mario.
      Um... that uhh, that-that dream, like all dreams, faces one critical challenge...As in the film. I must face off against an UTTERLY, ruthless, scene stealer. *self jumpcuts* Every great hero needs a diabolical enemy, and I could promise you I could not have been paired with a more perfect king of the koopas...

    0:36 I FEEL THAT SO BAD
    I currently live at my parent’s house because I attend online college and rent is super high where I live. Instead I pay rent to the parents which is fine (800 a month). But what gets really awful is I’m often asked for extra for things such as “Using too much electricity” or “eating too much” both of which are very funny because 1. I’m almost always asleep at the house, doing schoolwork, or at work and 2. I eat a meal a day with very few snacks. On top of that it seems every time I get a bonus HALF of it has to go to them for random expenses such as “needing to fix the lawn”. I’m fast I had to give them 1,500 of my 2,500 tax return last year. Where did it go? Who knows, credit cards they have debt on because they like to go to WinStar to gamble or something like that.
    This isn’t the worst they’ve acted though, no way. They’re ultra conservative Catholic types and I’m a trans-femme non-binary person. I’ve gotten my lip busted open by my father for letting a girl paint my nails in high school and was told I’d “shame the family”, I was sent to Christian Therapy for having gay porn on my phone, and I was routinely made fun of or hit for liking boys. I remember vividly being driven to a theater where I had secrétele planned to go go with a boy. The parents took my phone, got it unlocked, and looked through it to find out who I was going with. Upon finding out it was a boy they scolded me, we drove up to the theater, parked right next to them, and my parents got out and yelled at me, the guy I was dating, and their mom. In public. In a parking lot. All of that ended up actually really harming my attraction to people and caused me to self harm, I felt gross for liking boys and it actually made it harder for me to well… get hard because every time I did I would hurt myself. I’m more fine now, but damn. Having a drug addicted bio-mom who is abusive and a stalker and then having an abusive stepmom and father who to this day mistreat you (got called rhe f-slur recently) is tough. Despite it I am trying to work towards getting out as soon as possible. Once I can get a remote job I’m moving in with my partner who lives in Colorado, and I’m gonna go as far away from this mess of a family.

    So my mom grew up having to be 5x more responsible to be respected half as much as her older brothers in her mother's eyes. Her brothers are real pieces of work, too. All her life, my mom tried her darnedest to please her mother, but ultimately decided to take a step back after my siblings and I were born. The straw that broke the camel's back? My grandmother started criticizing me (a 2-or-3-year-old) and calling me rude for going to my room when I got overwhelmed by people.
    The really ironic part was that I got overwhelmed by people because I was so anxious that I would do something they would think was rude. According to my mom, that was when she realized that nothing would ever be good enough for her mother, and she wasn't going to subject her own children to that.
    We did have a relationship with my grandparents, but visits were definitely not even yearly. We learned that there was value in "loving from afar."

The real kicker was when she assaulted me and kicked me out when I was in recovery from a surgery. Luckily my parents let me move back in for a while and I've a better relationship with them. but my BM always say the classic "I brought you into this world" bit. I have nothing to do with her now and frankly the 2 years I did know her made me realize my parents were right about BM being shit.

My dad didn’t have a dad growing up, and my moms dad abused her, so yeah, I think they have valid reasons for abusing me other than they’re just assholes. It doesn’t make it right, but it helps me understand that it’s not me or them, it’s just life is fucked up for a lot of people. Hopefully one day, unlike them, I’ll get the chance to end to cycle, and maybe even patch things up with them.

I was already in a sucky mood because i was dragged along to go there while i'd much rather be going to taekwondo. nontheless i had to go. while we were there i had nothing to do since i have no phone, still to this day, in order to stop me from being exposed to social medias and communicating with people online (which is why i made my own google account instead of being forced to share my parent's). My dad started making fun of me sitting there doing nothing, saying i had no friends and it was hard for me to socialize and such. When i tried to stand up for myself saying i wasnt feeling well and i had nothing to do since he took my phone away, he laughed and told me i had no control over my own life and it was funny how i thought i could make my own decisions. meanwhile everyone else at the dinner table went silent, till my dad's friend who was hosting the party, spoke up and said that it was mental torture what he was doing to me. i got sympathetic head nods from everyone

    I know this isn’t the place to talk about this, but some of these really hit near home
    Parent’s (Specially mom) have been over protective for as long as I can remember; no social life outside school, never went out with friends, never had someone come over.
    I’m quite sure I’ve been dealing with some form of depression since when I was 12-14 I think, never tried nor will try to open up to them, they are the kind that claim that “people in my time never had those mental problems, we had it worse and we grew up just fine”
    Do I need to say that I’ve been told, all throughout my life about how useless I am?
    For the last 3 years (I’m 19btw), my relationship with my parents has been deteriorating, withering away, thanks God and not so thanks God; I just like boys way more than girls, and I know I want a boy in my life, it started with severe arguing, then went to a Psychologist, who was a very professional person and instead of trying to change my sexuality, just helped me with my anxiety issues; about two years ago, I started chatting with a boy over discord, he was 19 and me 17 at the moment, from another country, once my parents found out they lectured my (of course they did) and went as far as wanting to denounce my friend with the intention of charging him with Pedophilia just because we got a little frisky on chat, I don’t know how I did, but I got to still talk to him through gmail and then Steam chat, he would become my boyfriend, kept him a secret for almost 2 years until we broke up; I graduated and got to Uni, yet I was unlucky enough for my dad to find out I still watched porn (Like wtf, this is normal), he was mad like I’ve never seen him, he also thought I was talking to this guy on twitter, they kicked me out that day, I had to kneel and beg, I didn’t want this, then I got back home and it was kinda alright, in exchange I had to “change”, something I was clearly not planning on doing.
    I’m really lucky I ended up liking my career path, I wanted to study Piano and Composition; I played piano for around 12 years, and right then, when I was going to apply for Uni, they didn’t allow me to, they were having none of it, I wasn’t going to study that. I ended up in medschool and thank God I am liking it so far
    This year I broke up with my Boyfriend due some bad stuff I did, I started fooling around with boys and that very much killed my relationship, I would say my whole sexual life so far has just been brief hook ups in all kinds of places… feeling like shit after each one, scared, disgusted. As you might expect, enduring a break up in silence was no easy task, trying to hide the sadness, crying in silence each night, begging for sleep to come fast.
    Having the next semester around the corner, mom started threatening me with “Dad won’t pay your studies anymore” I’m used to this kind of comments, when ever there was a chance, mom would say to me “You haven’t changed” but this time it was very real, eventually, that day came around, I was kicked out once more, but I wasn’t having it, they don’t own me; mom hit me several times, slapped me in the face when I tried to stay firm to my heart, I ended up threatening them with suicide and by those means got to stay home, one condition in mind, I must bring a girls and make my mom believe she’s my girlfriend; once I finish Uni and get a job, I can fuck off
    Some weeks after that, I told my dad about my “Naughty escapades” and my
    ex-boyfriend, I really wasn’t prepared for what came next, they weren’t joking around, dad had the police over my phone and computer, they knew everything, he knew my boyfriends name, age, the place he lived, what he was studying, he knew everything I had been up to until now, he went as far a paying someone to be in Grindr and talk to me while I was at the gym, he showed me the chat, the pics we sent…
    And that’s my story so far

    At 18:14, that "superstition" I believe was more of a veiled word for "Don't work at that time cause relatives might come over". And besides, during the old days there's no washing machines so it's possible that you might look messy and unpresentable.
    Old folks usually scared children with those kind of threats cause it usually works.

    Me: tries to tell parents how the teachers at high school verbally abuse us daily and have been trying to tell us who to vote for

    I swear, parents need to stop trying to treat our trauma as a competition for who had it worse.
    Edit: I don’t mean this in a way where their trauma doesn’t exist. What I mean by this is that parents and adults in general, when people try to tell them things, they straight up ignore what they’re saying and start on about how miserable their life was. Again, this doesn’t make their trauma magically disappear, we just need to get them to stop holding contests for who had it worse.

      Gods, we were doing a poem (Little Boy Crying by Mervyn Morris) and it's about a father beating his three year old son for playing in the rain, and the teacher managed to convince more than half the class that the father was the one we should pity since he didn't actually want to hit the boy, he just knew that he had to so the boy could learn a 'valuable' lesson (how tf is playing in the rain bad, he's three years old, even adults play in the rain) and I just wanted to scream at this woman, especially since she emotionally abuses her own son (he's my friend) and constantly gets aggressive or touches him without his permission. I hate feeling helpless.

    11:35 So this is actually a thing set into the Apple settings-
    Like I am a teenager and this is on my phone because of “poor choices”. It is called screen time and it can limit accessibility to your contacts, apps, and safari tabs.
    If parents/legal guardians decide to put this on a Apple device they can limit their phone to only be able to call known numbers (the contacts you have in ur phone) and nothing else.
    So if you are in need of help from either police or something you cannot get a hold of them.
    As a person who has had a difficult past in suicidal thoughts if I needed to call for help to the suicide hotline, I cannot.
    I believe this is a good way to limit a child’s access to a phone at a young age. Though I feel the need as a person gets older the need for this slowly goes away. :)

    the lady selling the Oculus, my parents did pretty much the same thing to me, I bought a telescope of $1500 because I wanted to start studying Astronomy, was my first paycheck, I never managed to get into the study because it was too far away, pretty much the day I moved out, they sold the Telescope for $250 because ''You're not gonna use it anyway'' I literally used it every single clear night to gaze at the stars, I was given the $250 but never an apology or the rest of the money of the loss I made on that telescope, they also never offered to buy me a new one (my parents are pretty loaded so they easily could have)

    I was born in 88, had my first child in 2011 and my second in 2013, they will be 11 and 9 this year. We have discussed several things that their father and stepmother do not agree with, things that honestly make them like the other parents on this video... however, I 100% agree that regardless of familial status, you are not required to love that person. You do not owe anyone anything. I have taught my children that they are not required to hug/kiss anyone in the family, including me, if they are not comfortable. I have taught them that their body is their own and their emotions/feelings also matter when it comes to familial relations as well. They do not have to love their father. They are not required to love their stepmother. They are not required to love me or their stepfather. I am lucky in the sense that they absolutely do love me and their stepfather and I have tried to bridge the gap between their father and stepmother and them, but there are far bigger issues that have happened than what I can fix. I have taught them privacy and I will not go into their rooms unless they have said "come in". I have taught them that privacy is two ways here... I do not want them coming into the bathroom on me nor do I want them coming into my room without knocking and waiting for a reply. Any money they earn is given to them and put into their piggy banks and they can spend it on whatever they want to. We go to the store, they look at the items they want, and if it's something they come to later wish they hadn't purchased (in lieu of the other item they really wanted) then they learn a lesson. They learn by doing. I don't hinder my kids from things. What I do is keep them safe. I make sure that everything happens within reason for their ages. Something else their father and stepmom reeeeally can't stand is the fact that I allow them to make their own decisions on what hairstyle they want and the clothes they choose to wear. I don't force them into wearing anything. It's all within the age appropriate range and I do not allow my daughter to wear anything that shows off her body - she's going to be 9, not 19. She also understands modesty and chooses to wear certain things. I don't force her. When we go shopping for clothes, they choose their outfits. They choose their shoes. Their father forces them to wear certain clothes and shoes. They forced my son into a few haircuts he didn't like. Thankfully it grows out quickly. During holidays, they make them wear all alike clothes to match them and her kids, but the kids come home, strip off the clothes they were made to wear, and go right into the clothes they are comfortable in. My husband has a mother and father who are toxic. We have nothing to do with them, either. Toxic is toxic, regardless of who it is. I have and will always allow my kids to make certain choices and let them learn from their mistakes. I will also continue to teach them that they are their own person and nothing and no one will ever come in the way of that. Am I wrong? Maybe to some. To me, I'm doing right by kids. My mother tried to keep control over me clear up until I was 26. She died when I was 26. I will not be that person.

      @@enexua_07 Thank you. I try to do right by my children each and every day. I want them to one day be able to face this world as adults and have an understanding that I didn't have at that age. I want them to know what is and isn't okay and that their body is their own, regardless of who it is. I want them to understand that with every action, there are consequences, good or bad. Also, with every action, there's a reaction. A reaction by someone or something. Their journey in this life is not set by me. I cannot - and will not - control or try to control what they do. It is my job as their parent to guide them to adulthood and give them the tools to succeed and survive. I want them to do better than me. To go further than me. Travel to places I never could. See things, taste things, feel things, that I never could. I want them to soar above and beyond what I couldn't. I'll never hold them back. I'll always be here for them in any capacity they need me to be. As their mother, I'll teach them right from wrong, how to be good people, and how to make it in a world where many are cold and do not care about you. I love my children with all my being, and I'll love them regardless of the paths they choose in this life. It's who I am and who I wish my parents could have been for me.

    If your mom believes that someone in your family will die if you do laundry on New Year's, then do the laundry. And if there's any nonexistent chance that the superstition could be true, you just gotta hope that she's the one who gets it.
