:yeshrug: He's hard to listen to sometimes, but he's not too bad as a parent, though he does have a temper that is unnecessary on most occasions. :dame:

Pop's was cool. Didn't take no shyt. Would hurt anyone that would hurt me or my brother. He and my grandfather (my mom's father) would usually get together and teach me and my brother all of the stuff that was expected of a man. Mowing the lawn, plumbing, working on cars. That kinda shyt. Hell when I was about 10, he and my grandfather helped me and brother build our on little shack where we could hang out in during the summer.

If you name the basic essentials of being a man, I was probably taught it by my Pops and Grandfather.

My Dad gave me the blueprint.

Got up and went to work every day same job for 30 years, and always kept side hustles, because my mom couldn't always work.

Took care of my mom who found out she had lupus after they got married and nursed her back to health every time she fell ill and was hospitalized and had to go through rehab. Never let her stay in in a nursing home to get better, he my sister and I took care of her at home after getting out the hospital.

Took us on trips/vacation every year, even if it was just up to Flint to visit family, driving to Florida/Texas/Georgia/Mississippi or out of the country as a teenager, he gave me my love of travel even without a lot of money, we would hop in the car and drive Everywhere.

Was crazy strict about house rules and housework being done 0 exceptions. If he came home at 1am and the dishes or whatever wasn't done, I had to get up and do it because it was my responsibility to the house.

Gave me the majority of my life game, taught me how to maneuver, I realize how much I'm like him. He could charm whatever he wanted out of people.

Was an only child and loves and looks out for his friends like blood relatives.

Checks on his mother EVERY SINGLE DAY, and will do anything for her. I had to make him go on a cruise he had planned this year because his mom was sick and he didn't really trust anyone to watch over her while he was out the country for a week. I had to swear I'd check on her every day to get him to go.

Lives by his word, I'd never question or doubt a promise he made to me, ever. I don't have that level of faith in a another living person.

My father was/is a narcissist. He's always been there but dude is disconnected and out of touch with reality. He treated my mom poorly and wasn't all that interested in being in his sons lives when we were children only when he felt like it or as I found out through my mom, she begged him to do something with us or to be involved. My mom basically raised us despite him being in the household and she held down most and half of the time all of the responsibility. She would fukk herself up for that dude working 2 to 3 jobs and instead of being appreciative and trying to use that as an opportunity to improve himself, he didnt do shyt. Just work the same job,not caring about shyt. Usually blaming or trashing her for his shortcomings. would always come up short with the school fee, the rent, and whatever money he owed. He was more of negative influence than a positive one in my life.


Through all that shyt, he still doesn't have a clue. I don't like hanging around him because dude is fukked up. He's good at telling people what to do or acting like he's the shyt.

Terrible! my father abused my mother so bad and attempted to kill her at one point(right in front of us). He raped my mother as well (we overheard this as it happened when we were children). They divorced and He then married a white woman with money and had a kid with her (one who I never see and tbh I don't want to see). He relentlessly beat and cheated on the white woman with black women and even got us caught up in this shyt (making us lie for him). Then when he left her he'd already took her to the cleaners and she was broke. He relentlessly pursued my mother all throughout those years with his white chick but she hated him by then. Then he marries this other woman and the first day we meet her he beats her right in front of us (in a moving fukking car). They also have a kid (who I never met). He beat her one day so bad and stabbed her and was sent to prison. By this time I was going to prom and I hadn't heard from him in years! I had to pay for my own prom dress and stuff but when the mfer was locked up he all of a sudden wanted to form a relationship with me. He was calling and writing me everyday and now I'm just over him. He missed too much of my life, I just turned 21. I've been molested, bullied, abused by people and I never had a dad that I could turn to to help me or protect me. As I said before he was terribleeeee.

My dad was there, but he wasn't there mentally. He provided for us, but he was addicted to drugs and gambling. He never listened to anyone when they tried to help him. He stole cash from family members and he would vandalize people's property if he thought he was being treated unfairly.

I didn't know he suffered from schizophrenia until I was 20 and I recently had to commit him to a psych ward.
