This isn't even funny. My father did this to one of my brothers with a realistic Jason Voorhees mask. It was so bad, he crapped himself and he was promptly whooped for crapping.
Nah my boomer mum was extremely abusive, she'd have a bad day and beat me and my brother until she was too physically exhausted, then send us to our rooms so she didn't have to look at what she'd done. She'd never tell us we could come out so eventually we'd just leave out rooms and she'd act like nothing happened. We were very well behaved out of fear. She was also emotionally abusive and manipulative but too much info to give there.
Her life sucked so would have bad days almost everyday. I always assumed her mum must have been worse as I'd heard previous generations were more strick. My gran always seemed lovely but I didn't know what she was like as a mother, until I was older and spoke to my mum's siblings. She was always the loveliest, most caring women. Loved her kids, firm but fair and was super progressive for the time. That's why my mum's siblings are all great, well functioning adults and throughout my life I've had so many people tell me how amazing they thought my gran was. So there is no reason for my mum to be the way she is.
So not all boomers wanted to be better parents than their parents.
FYI I had therapy and cut out my mother, my brother found Christ and also cut out our mother. We're still close with the extended family. I always found it weird when my cousins and most of my friends really liked their parents. It took me decades to realise my upbringing wasn't normal.
Yeah well in my case I know my mum gets to live with her actions because she's lonely. My aunts and uncles still talk to her out of pity, but they don't like her
Dude wtf ? This is fucking disgusting and horrible , how didn’t you crash out on your dad for that shit?? Forced him to crap himself then beat him for it, genuinely wtf . Poor kid, that’s gonna fuck with him mentally for the rest of his life
Mine had me watch the original Candyman movie as a joke and I couldn’t even go into a bathroom because it gad a mirror as a little kid so I would pee outside.
They beat my ass for it and I am like fuck you, hit me, goddamn fucking Candyman is going to rip me apart in there. They thought it was funny. Primal fear levels of horror.
I have a similar story with Candyman. They let me watch it when I was way too young, then I was afraid to go to the bathroom because my brother would say Candy Man when I was in there next to the mirror.
I genuinely asked to use the portable camping toilet thing in my room to avoid mirrors.
I bet he doesn’t understand why, in fact, I bet he’s the victim and baffled how his children all turned out the way they did…at least that’s how my dad handles none of us having anything to do with him
To the people in my family, they used therapy to make YOU look like the bad guy while THEY looked like patron saints. This is the reason I refuse to talk to therapists today.
Right, it was always a way to get the therapist on their side to gang up on the other person. But that's why finding the right therapist is so important
If I was an influencer I guess that would be the perfect segue into today's sponsor lol
