[Tflasha]

Some parents put material success over wellbeing of their children.

I just had a discussion about this with some friends. Black parents keep doing this and it's not good for anyone. You end up with a relationship like thread starter has where they treat you like a failure for being a every day person and you end up resenting them. But we live in a community where mental health issues go unaddressed because "you not depressed,you just lazy." or "Ain't nothing wrong with you."

You should start your own thread and stop projecting. I'm sorry for your loss but this thread is about o.p.

Feel free to make your own thread to unload your feelings as I'm sure peeps would be supportive.

I honestly don’t care how non-sympathetic the sounds but just because it some of y’all daddies died or been there is a accomplishment is BS.

Their are a lot of fukkED up parents who should never had access to kids. OP your dad doesn’t sound like one of those but he was reckless with you.

Fathers can be disciplinary and loving. If anything you need to confront your mother about not talking to him about that...cause your parents should have Address that

 

[MischievousMonkey]

Write him a letter where you pour all your feelings, positive and negative, into it and send it to him. Not for him to understand, but for you to be free of all this resentment.

U sound soft OP

There are too many adults living with issues that had growing up as a child.

You need to get over it. If your beyond 18 talk that shyt your a loser, it's like a 35 year old woman talking that same shyt "the reason why I'm a hoe is because my dad left when I was 8." bytch please your 35 years old.

OP isn't wrong for having a problem with how he was raised. A lot of these people that had a father, mother or both parents that were tough on them wish they could have had more support and love growing up. My Dad didn't teach me much period and I learned more from my Uncles than from this nikka

Could be worse though, could have had no father and been raised by women which looking at men in person and online who were raised by women I would never want to end up like some of these feminine lames.

When I got in the car I asked him why he had to embarrass me and he replied " you embarrass yourself."

 

[Threnody]

This was my pops idea of raising me and I love him for it

I was on some grown ass man shyt at like seven years old out of necessity

If I was weak I wouldn't have made it but I did

He didn't tell me he loved me until right before he died RIP pops

Smh the coli is ruthless

 

[Sonic Boom of the South]

I really must be a different breed


Cause I always checked my parents at a young age


My mom was more the 1 to pop off more

And I stayed snapping right back


I think they was afraid I would murder them in their sleep if they took it there

So overall they was cool


I was the shyt growing up so they got residual shine so

Your pops sounded like mine he pushed me hard but once I grew up and started seeing people who didn’t have a father I figured I was lucky to have him

 

[big bun]

You sound like a bytch, OP...your daddy was right about you.
