My father is an alcoholic with an explosive temper, so it didn't take much effort to piss him off.

Spankings, belt, and slaps at first. Then it turned into groundings Butters style. Having had a terrible memory my whole life, they'd ask me to do a chore, I'd forget, and I'd get grounded. I've literally been grounded more than half my teenage life because I'm the kind of person that forgets how my middle name is spelled.

Oh, and when my parents caught me with porn they made sure everyone in the near family knew to intentionally humiliate me, because hell is a "serious" thing "serious" people take seriously.

Wow, look at how well we all turned out? We're all posting on gamefaqs. I'm just fighting off anxiety attacks 24/7. I was an asshole to 3 of my friends today, I have a second sociopathic personality, and I can't remember what I had for breakfast. I'd say hardass parents know what they're doing.

Ugh... I know how that feels. My memory also fails me more often than not, and this turned my life in a living hell several times.

If all my dad did was take something away or ground me I wouldn't care.

Really? I feared that more than a spanking. Physical pain goes away fast. But if they forbid me of doing something, it could last for months - if not a whole year. That's basically the reason it took me so damn long to beat my PS1 games...

I think mental abuse is much more damaging anyway.


Yeah there is no debate about this. This is 100% true.

Only by my mom. My dad said he spanked me once and felt bad lol. My mom stopped once she realized she couldn't hit me hard enough to make me stop laughing without it being real physical abuse

Then it wouldn't be abuse, it would be assault.

There's a fine line between not punishing your kids and ending up with a twisted sister reject and punishing them too hard and ending up with a little Satanist twisted sister reject that I feel my parents navigated pretty well.

Honestly it wasn't the physical pain that affected me so much. Afterwards my dad would always take me aside and explain why he did it and how disappointed he was. That got to me more than the pain.

They tried grounding and taking stuff away, I just always found ways to occupy my time, books school, etc. So it never bothered me.

No but my mom would.


This. Closest I had to a father figure was my grandad. Mother would whip me with a belt, he was oldschool he'd backhand me in the mouth. Never hard enough to leave a mark or draw blood though.

Either was rare though I didn't become a trouble maker until I was a teen and I was discreet enough about it where my mom knew I was doing shit but could never catch me doing it.

... and in that case said person who is killed wouldn't have to live with the damage thus nope.
Although mental abuse can kill too. Granted not directly but still.
