    What an insane take.

    My stepfather broke a board over me because he thought I was posessed by a demon. Why do you wish you’d gone through that?

        That’s what I’m responding to? Hitting your kids is the “traditional” way. “Spare the rod, spoil the child” is literally in the bible.

        Heck, another time, he was hitting me and I was screaming so loud that the neighbor called the cops. The cops told me that I was being too loud and needed to be better behaved if I didn’t want to get hit.

        What did you think you were describing when you said that you wish your parents had made “traditional” mistakes that left you with trauma?

          Hitting your kids is not even semi-normal and you’re seemingly too traumatized to know that. You also seem to think I didn’t both go through extreme neglect AND extreme abuse lol.

            Okay, so what did you mean by this?

            I wish I could’ve learned so many things the “traditional” way through a parenting mistake

            if “traditional” doesn’t mean getting hit?
