People who've been abused tend to be the worst judges of how good a parent they'd be. They get so caught up in convincing themselves they're not like their abuser that they lack self-awareness. Maybe they should just suck it up and think of the potential kid before thinking how nice it would be to have one.

If you've grown up in an abusive household and are self-aware enough to know that it is not right, normal or healthy, you should be ardent enough to know how to treat your own children. That's my experience, anyhow.

If you had ****ty parents and do your best not to be the same you’ll just end up another type of ****ty.

Since personal attacks aren’t allowed please try to imagine what I think of you parenting. Thanks.

Hawk & Animal in a tag team against a solo Hulk Hogan. Who will win?

"Should" is a worthless word in this instance since it presupposes self-awareness, even though that will often be impaired by psychological damage.

Animal tags Hawk back in, Hawk throws Hogan against the ropes and hits him with a clothes line!

Only if you're weak, broken, ill or a piece of shit yourself, none of which apply to me. Stop trying to cast your shortcomings onto others.

I have an AMAZING 8 year old son who thinks the fucking world of me. I'm his father, his protector, his provider, his confidant and his best friend. I love him with every fiber of my being, and he loves me right back. We have a special bond, one which you will go to the grave without ever having experienced. Sit on that, beta.

True. Everyone reacts differently to bad situations. Some people survive and better themselves, others move to Florida and chop up dead fish to pay hookers for pity sex.

MERIT, watching you sincerely engage and then get trolled is painful. You remind me of me.

Treat them like shit. Act like nothing and no one matter. They'll like you more.

Didn't hurt me.
