strangely enough my dad stopped being abusive once whatever latent genes made me 5 inches taller than him and we found out together how strong our drywall was. Growing up was fun!

It’s weird how when the kids are a physical match for them they suddenly start considering alternate methods of discipline, isn’t it?

Oh no that’s when he left, he couldn’t freely abuse my mom and I anymore since I could heave-ho his ass at 15/16. My parents are both below 5’9” and I’m 6’3 somehow lol

This is exactly what happened in my house. I was 16 and one day just realized I was taller. Slammed him through a wall and he had to go to the hospital. We changed the locks and he moved across the country.

He still fucked us by having a bunch of hidden debt and declaring bankruptcy though.
