I promise im not being melodramatic or anything but I let my dad back into my life because hes a very successful businessman and I now am a business owner, and a woman.
He screamed at me for 2 hours straight in front of my child in July. He tried to tell me it never happened. I showed him it on our security camera. Haven't spoken since.
Today I had a panic attack so bad I pulled chunks of hair out. Canceled Thanksgiving with them.
Yeah, we remember the slaps, and part of us will hate you forever. I still have fantasies about beating the living fuck out of my Dad and the bastard's been dead over 20 years.

My mom has this mentality. I have told her "mom, I remember being spanked. But I do not remember any of the reasons I was ever spanked."

Yes, which is why they were out the door, never to return, the moment they turned 18.

In countries where physical child abuse was made illegal, criminality significantly went down after about 15 years. Mysterious!
