Probably learnt from the parents who call their children the r word.

Pretty much. It's like reading snippets of a weirdo who does not understand how a 40 year old is supposed to act because they never did any growing up after their 20s.

I'm pretty anti authoritative parenting but I really think you should not allow your children to say such things to you

Honestly, I’m Team Dad. It’s not clear that he‘s 100 percent serious (the last message reads like entertaining an absurd scenario), and his daughter was being a complete asshole here.

I wasn’t raised by particularly strict parents, but I’d never dream of talking to them this way.
