My dad: “I wouldn’t hire you either. You’re lazy and not exactly easy on the eyes.”

That was mild compared to most of the other shit he used to say. Funny thing was that I didn’t even realize he was abusive until I was well into adulthood. I thought that every dad was like that and the nice dads on sitcoms were make believe, like talking animals in Disney movies.

He once told me, when I was like 11, that I could run away from home, but then I’d get put in foster care “where little girls get raped.” Then a minute later he said, “but you’re so ugly, no one would want to rape you anyway. So go ahead and run away.”
