    Imagine making a 12 year old pay for their own portion for a trip to cuba... I wonder what the parents would've said if he had wanted to stay home alone instead of using up all her savings.

      if you're not financially stable enough to go on vacation- ie making your kids help pay- then you shouldn't be going on vacation...

      My dad made my brother and I pay our own way on our trip to Disney World earlier this year. Brother is 24, I’m almost 31 and we both have jobs so his reasoning was we’re old enough and responsible enough to take care of it ourselves. Well I think technically we reimbursed him for our portions. Can’t remember if he made the payment before or after we transferred the money over.
      I think making the 20 year old pay for her way is reasonable as she is an adult. As for the other two…yeah sure the 15 year old may have a job but I doubt it pays enough to go to Cuba and making a 12 year old spend her savings on a family trip instead of a phone which is an absolute necessity in this day and age is fucking insane.
      For reference the WDW trip was like 1200 each and we live in the US. So a trip to Cuba from the US would be miles more expensive.

    I think the worst aspect of most "parents" is their obsessive need of comparing your struggles to their own, they think they are helping by "showing you it can be worse" or "at least you don't have it like this" when all it does is undermine the kid's feelings and confidence.

    My egg donator used the "1, 2, 3" threat on me. Hearing other parents use it to this day, at nearly 40 years old, can still be triggering. Because it wasn't an empty threat.

      Dude same. I was born on a rainy day in Liberia. During my youth, in the turbulent period that was the First Liberian Civil War, I was adopted by Solidus Snake, who named me and became my godfather after he killed my parents. I was subsequently raised as a child soldier and later fought in the country's Civil War in 1989. I and other children were shown Hollywood action films daily for "image training," and were given food mixed with gunpowder containing toluene to make us more controllable. I and the other members of the Small Boy Unit were forced to kill POWs and civilians. On one occasion, I was injected with an unknown substance during a physician's experiment. On another, I witnessed Solidus demonstrate to me that blades were a "noble weapon" compared to guns, by slitting another soldier's throat in front of me. I had to fight and kill, just to survive! Kids are so spoiled these days

    11:35 So this is actually a thing set into the Apple settings-
    Like I am a teenager and this is on my phone because of “poor choices”. It is called screen time and it can limit accessibility to your contacts, apps, and safari tabs.
    If parents/legal guardians decide to put this on a Apple device they can limit their phone to only be able to call known numbers (the contacts you have in ur phone) and nothing else.
    So if you are in need of help from either police or something you cannot get a hold of them.
    As a person who has had a difficult past in suicidal thoughts if I needed to call for help to the suicide hotline, I cannot.
    I believe this is a good way to limit a child’s access to a phone at a young age. Though I feel the need as a person gets older the need for this slowly goes away. :)

    I'm 14 and my mother has been a heavy drinker for as long as I can remember, to the point where she passes out on the couch/floor most nights. I recently got surgery and had my appendix taken out due to swelling. This causes you to eat less than normal, both before and after the surgery because it irritates your stomach. I've always been highly underweight, but I've been doing a lot better recently due to some medicine that a dietician prescribed me, but when my mom asked me to weigh myself a day after the surgery, I told her my weight, which was abt 3 pounds down from what I was before the surgery, and my mom said that I couldn't use screens for anything besides school until I got back to where I was before the surgery. Luckily my dad stepped in and stopped her from doing that because he's somewhat reasonable, but it was scary for the moment that I thought that might actually happen. Was this a reasonable action, and is it normal for parents to be drunk every night?

    Thats not the worst part.
    Im old enough to cook simple things to eat for lunch and dinner. The thing is, i cant cook dinner, when all i have to cook is pasta, toast, or a tuna fish sandwhich. Half the time, the only times i eat lunch and breakfast, is at school. Then i come home and dont eat dinner because i have nothing to eat. The other times i actually eat, is at my dads house. Hes doing pretty badly. He works instacart. Earns about 80 bucks a day. He buys me snacks, food, and even treats and things when i ask for them. He doesnt drink, he only smokes cigars once a day. He treats me better than my mom who is a travel nurse, earns about $30 an HOUR (I believe, im not exactly sure.), And works 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. She never takes me out to do anything, maybe we'll go out to dinner once a couple months, but thats really it. Shes a severe alcoholic, and smokes daily. All the time. She claims she doesnt have enough money to buy simple party decorations for my birthday, yet the only things she actually spends money on is food for the pets, cigarettes, beer, and alcohol. Aswell as candy and snacks for her and her boyfriend. Im not professional in law at all, like, at all. But i believe this is negelct, is that true?

      yeah, lots of people have said this, and I feel you. it's a cool idea in theory but unfortunately humans are messed up and in all likelihood a license like that will just be used for eugenics or some similar crap. if there was one objective set of parenting qualifications that everyone agreed on that'd be great, but unfortunately that's...never happened in human history. you have to think, who would be in charge of something like that? how could anyone make sure their intentions are pure? what about all the infinite ways that could be used for discrimination? what agendas or biases could be intentionally or unintentionally contained in the test material?
      and if people _do_ get pregnant prior to receiving a license and don't get one, (which _will_ happen, and frequently) what are they gonna do, forced abortion? removal of the child from their birth parents as soon as they're born? it's unenforceable at best, and a dystopian nightmare at worst. It'll also probably cause an economic labor crisis like the one China is dealing with right now due to having their one-child law for so long. And it almost undoubtedly will discriminate against low-income people, and through that other minorities, particularly disabled people and certain ethnic groups. It's the same reason we can't have a test for who can vote, there are just too many opportunities for bias and discrimination for it to ever be practical.

      It's not that extreme. Wanting to kill LGBTQ people is extreme and insane. Having parenting licenses just seems like it could be necessary at this point. Or at the very least give child services more power to investigate abusive families.

    I have a dad who gives me no privacy and a short temper and my mom says he is ‘bipolar’ as an excuse which is really mean because it’s more of anger issues that he decides cursing me out and breaking things sometimes is the answer and he never listens to me or cares about me and he never lets go of something and will bring up a mistake I made almost a year ago back up to make me feel bad. Then sometimes out of nowhere he will pretend he’s been there for me and has always treated me amazing and will get angry or upset if I don’t treat him with kindness and like we have a stable relationship and will proceed to throw a tantrum and ground me. The worst part is my mom always takes his side and dosent try to say anything to him.

    I've always had problems with managing my emotion, and I often get overwhelmed and break into tears. My mom doesn't like this very much. After a while I couldn't say it's because I'm a bit stressed out, because I'm "always stressed."
    I get the vibe that my parents don't really think to much about what I'm feeling a lot, and that sucks because I put so much effort into understanding why *they* do things. I feel like if your kid is always one mistake away from a spiral, you'd start to be a little concerned.
    My mom only started showing any form of concern about half a year ago, which, by all rights, shouldn't have thrown me for as much of a loop as it did
    I get there are a lot of people out there who have legitimately horrible parents, but this video stirred up some stuff and I needed to vent for a second

    It always annoys me so much when me and my mother are having an argument about something serious, if she thinks it's not going to go her way or she just gets too annoyed with me, she'll just walk away and sulk in her room. But whenever I try to walk away from an argument, she gets mad at me and doesn't let me leave. One time, I needed to be alone, and I couldn't properly communicate that to her. She was standing in the doorway of my room and wouldn't let me leave, so I had to force my way past her. After that, a bunch more garbage ensued, I ended up trying to hide from her in the basement, and she was going to send me to live with my grandparents two provinces away. She still thinks she was in the right because I didn't explicitly tell her that I needed to be alone, and I was just saying, very clearly distressed, "I don't want to talk to you, can you please just go away?" Wow, quelle suprise that after being raised by her, someone who gets annoyed instead of comforting her children when they're in distress, and was raised by someone who didn't show any emotions other than anger, I wouldn't be able to properly portray my emotions and how I feel.

      Nah bro, I’ve been through the same thing, except my mother knew I’d be happy to live with my grandmother, so she’d threaten to abandon me at an orphanage we lived near. It always makes me feel a little better knowing I’m not alone in thinking I wasn’t being the asshole during those moments. I’m sorry for what you’re going through, and I’m sorry to say it won’t change. But it may lessen the older you get, it did for me. I have to deal with new shit now about “hiding from my family” and “ignoring people”, but it’s better than dealing with the emotional abuse. It’s too bad seeing your child visually suffering isn’t enough for most parents to stop and question what they’re doing. I hope your mother looks at you someday, sees your heartbreak, and finally just listens. It’s all I’ve ever wanted, and I believe you deserve it too.

And then of course it came out on Nintendo, and I played that, I mean, maybe years of my life, uh, it's an HONOUR, truly, to be able to speak as the man, who created those memories for me, and it's an honour to work alongside them. It's been a lifelong dream of mine to become Mario.
      Um... that uhh, that-that dream, like all dreams, faces one critical challenge...As in the film.

    Lemme go on a rant here.
    So this mainly happens to me.
    Parents can be stupid.
    Your child is upset, crying even, having a tantrum and a break down. What do you do?
    A: Calm them down, comfort them, give them their favorite thing (such as playing a movie on tv, etc)
    B: Leave them alone until they calm down, then talk to them.
    C: Spank them. Take away the things that keeps them calm. Lock them in a room, sometimes with the lights off when you know they’re scared of the dark.
    Know what most parents do (from my experience and some friends)
    They choose option C. That option isn’t good, it’s no bueno. Wanna know why? It teaches them to bottle up their anger, sadness, etc, tells them to NOT use things to calm them down, and sometimes even starts SH.
    The fact that my parents have told me that “Just find something else to calm you down.” When they literally lock me in a room, with nothing In it, disappoints me. It even makes it worse when people like me try to tell them “Hey, can you leave me alone for a bit, let me calm down?” And then they don’t let you do that,and then complain “Why didn’t you calm yourself down?” Or when your calming yourself down and then they keep pestering you.
    Like.
    Bro.
    Wtf.
    And then when you tell the truth like “Hey, whenever you do this it really affects me mentally- it feels like abuse. Sometimes it even makes me SH or worse” they go
    “No no, that’s discipline. Stop overreacting you cry baby.”
    Parents, if they somehow get this message and they’ve chosen one of the things in option C, please stop. Try Option A or B instead of taking things away, locking them up, or spanking them.
    Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

    I swear, my dad ALWAYS had some sort of reason to get mad at me. It was constant "Want to explain why (random thing that either didn't happen or was so extremely insignifigant, or even something he should be happy for)" followed by my explanation THAT HE ASKED FOR and him saying that he didn't ask me to talk back to him. A big issue that always came up was him texting me during school. At my school, we weren't allowed to take phones out of or lockers, and he would send one text while I was in class, and within a minute tell me that I "shouldn't have a phone if I'm never going to reply to me." Not only that, but I have long hair and am generally one of the least masculine guys I know of, and I had a trans brother. My dad was already on me about how I should be more "boyish," but after my brother transitioned, oh boy, he never shut up about it. He was also pretty transphobic, and he always introduced my brother as "his daughter, Caroline." Hell, one time he yelled at my brother and I for not knowing a certain basketball player. My brother and I genuinly had some of our best bonding moments over talking about our dad being a jerk. We eventually ended up creating a game called *How did we F*ck up this Time!?* where we placed bets on what he would get mad at us for.
