A lot of these are just plain ol abuse. Like forcing your kid to eat their own vomit and forcing your kid to stay outside in the cold, that's abuse! Some people shouldn't be parents!
These parents are insane
Why did these parents choose to have children?
You're to be seen and not heard!
These parents are abusive to their children.
Horrible!
That's how my grandmother was. Needless to say, she doesn't get to see OR hear me at all anymore. I attended one family event that she did, and I hardly looked at the woman, much less spoke a single word.
Can't respect your children? Don't expect them to respect you, especially when they're grown.
The old societal pressure of getting married and having kids when you did not want them. Or the step parent that was pissed that they had to take care of someone else's brat. What do you do? Why make their lives a living hell just for existing. They didn't asked for but got the abuse, because this is what it was. A lot of people should not have kids.
I wasn't allowed to be left handed. It was "rude" to do things with my left hand. I lerned to be ambidextrous. Right handed at home and left handed everywhere else 😂
Some of these (like the Oprah rule) are funny, a lot of these are child abuse.
6:43 That one's just sad. The parents legit thought that parents only speak to their children when they verbally abuse them and say that there's no such family that don't yell and scream and just talk.
I had a ridiculous amount of chores. I didn’t earn money for doing them either. Fine. We were *POOR* . The crazy rule was that the chores had to be finished *BEFORE* I could do my homework. I routinely have to stay up past midnight in order to finish it.
A friend I visited a couple of times whose parents (mother!) had one very weird rule. No eating with your hands - *EVER!*
The first time I visited him she had made pizza slices. I was about to grab a piece, but she slapped my hand away and yelled at me how "it's only animals and black people who are so primitive as to use their hands to eat with."
To name a few things you had to eat with utensils (as fkn bizarre as it was):
A chocolate bar - knife and fork
M&M's, popcorn, gummies etc. (small stuff in a bowl) - use a knife to place it carefully onto a spoon
Chips/crisps/french fries etc. - knife & fork or knife & spoon
I've seen this before, and I'm putting it here: "Every kid deserves parents, but not every parent deserves kids"
I had 1 abusive parent as a kid, I still am in contact with him. And the dumbest rule he had was that we couldn't go to the bathroom at night. That rule was the reason why I was abused, I took a risk 1 night, used the bathroom and for the next 4-5 years I was abused for breaking that rule. I should really break contact with him.
We were not allowed to drink water after sports in a school I was from 5yo to 10yo (I do not know the equivalent grade for English schools, so I put up the age instead.) I had developed a little trick : I go to the bathroom pretending to pee and gobble as much water as I can while pretending to washed my hand. Sometimes I could not do it if the teacher oversee us, and I had to suck it up very bad headache. The worst was in summer. Two children passed out before the teachers start questioning that "common knowledge". After that they change the rule to "Children are forbidden to drink water after sport, but we will let them drink 1 hour after the end of the sports." But they back up to their old rule after seeing all children waiting the end of that hour to rush to the sink to drink water. Even when they made us going one by one. They believed that we take advantage of that "liberty" to evade working. 🙄
It was mid 90', and adults believed at that time that drinking water after intense sport was somehow bad and make children sick. It was also a time when children where not allowed to have medicine on them, and when asthma was believed to be not real. I had a sport dispensation from my doctor, but the teacher always make me doing sports time anyway. I was able to have one inhalation of ventolin before sports and another one after sport. I often vomit from the effort but I had to hide it or I would be severely reprimanded. I never learned how ventolin was supposed to work and I always though it was useless for me until I changed school at 11 yo. I discover that time how a human body was supposed to breathe as normally as possible, after my new doctor take the time to explain to me how I was supposed to used my ventolin and to never give it to an adult, specially the ones who believed that it was all made up for lazy children. And I was scared to tell my mom, because the rule of our family was to not getting in trouble. I always feared to tell how badly bullies I was because of that rule.
I was not allowed to leave my house till my dad got home. One time when I was 16 my uncle who is 10 yrs older than me came to visit and asked if I wanted to walk with him to the store to get some stuff. On the way back my dad found me with him. When I got home he gave me a horrible spanking.
This makes me happy my family wasn’t like this I mean I did have the rules at my grandparents house from my grandpa no eating or drinking in the living room and no tv shows that had cursing and nudity didn’t stop me from playing gta lol
We weren't allowed to say the word "Liar" in my Grandmother's house. Always thought that was weird.
Growing up in the 80s was peak awful parents.
Bunch of crazy people obsessed with dumb rules that was more harmful than anything.
Ill never understand the motivation
I find it insane how parents will load up a shit load of food for their children and force them to eat all of it, though maybe because I come from a family of five siblings including myself, so we could not exactly fully load our plates
Satan is a way cooler dude than the parents trying to avoid him
No Archie comics allowed. My parents refused to let me read Archie because it was "vulgar and inappropriate", I'd ask why and they'd tell me stuff like there's violence and drugs in it. I wondered for years what these comics were like until I was at the store by myself and read a book. It was the lamest crap I'd ever read.
Sue these parents
Some of these people have seen Mommy Dearest or read Oliver Twist too many times
You've obviously never experienced abuse from a parent?
It's manipulative, covert, and lifelong!
Listening to the insane rules these parents put upon their children?
Is cruel and unwarranted!
Something is wrong with every single one of them!
One child wasn't allowed to wear a shirt at the dinner table. This went on well into teenage years. Why would you do this to your daughter?
Then you have the parents that made their kids GO TO BED @ 8p.
All the way up to high school!
The one kid was NEVER allowed to shut his bedroom door! Even as a teenager.
The POS dad, his kids, weren't allowed to talk at the dinner table.
Every one of these kids has been affected by these parents.
I
