Have you seen this dad?

Re: Have you seen this dad?

  • I never go through my friends list to see who defriended me. Now if there was a mass defriending, and I realized that every knottie I knew defriended me, that would leave me scratching my head.

  • I don't even know how many friends i have on facebook so I'd never know if I were defriended.

  • I'd never know if I was defriended because I rarely check, and I forget who I'm friends with anyway unless I talk to them a lot.

    Also, this is probably more of a confession, but it annoys me how often people tell posters to go to counseling. Mostly because it didn't work for me, so in my head I have the irrational thought that it won't work for them. Even though I know that's dumb.

  • Special, I was pissed at some IRL friends and I generalized it, I guess. because that's what I do. I call groups of people morons. Keep up!

  • Heather, there are some comments that are so blatantly stupid, there's only one way to take them: at face value.

    Perhaps if you're so awful at communicating, you should work on that.

    Lol last time I was here, it didn't get the biggest welcome. So I took a break.

  • Seshat, honestly, I felt the same way until about two years ago when I finally found an awesome counselor who DID help.  The party line of "oh just go to counseling, it will fix it" used to drive me up a wall, because I'd tried several times and hadn't gotten anywhere.  And now I'm one of those annoying people who recommends counseling all.the.time.  Because it has really done a lot for me.  But I do understand where you're coming from.

  • Oh I don't hold it against anyone or anything, bay. It's just a twinge of annoyance then I get over it. Because it's totally irrational since I know it does help others. I think my brain is just broken in that respect.
  • Another caveat of counseling- you have to WANT it to work. Just going doesn't do much. This is in addition to finding the right counselor for you. So again, not a cure-all.

  • I can understand that Sesh. I've personally never been to counseling, and sometimes I wish I had when I was younger. I think it could have helped me. But I get why it would annoy you if it didn't help you. I get annoyed when people say stuff like "oh just smile and you'll be happy!" or that if you're happy life is ok. No, sometimes life fuucking sucks and you're sad.
  • I'm pretty I said that I understand where you guys are coming from. I obviously did not make clear what I meant. 

    I know when I'm outnumbered.

  • Fish - STOP IGNORING THE QUESTION.

    You are getting called out for not saying who is dependent on their H's in the party lines thread.

  • When I was younger and just starting therapy, my parents had to take me to eleven different therapists before we found one who worked for me. I feel guilty about this, but she was the only one not covered by our insurance. I had to go 2-3 times a week for a few years, and I just feel awful at how much money my parents spent.

    She did really help me, though. I genuinely think I would not be here today if I had never walked into her office.


  • Truth, Manda.

    My current therapist (mine, not our joint counselor, although he's cool too) is amazing.  I seriously love him to death and when he fully retires (he only works one day a week now) I don't know how I'll ever be able to find someone like him again.

  • That's true about finding one who works for you. My childhood shrink was awesome. I remember a lot about her, but I was also young and not really equiped with the ability to deal with it. I tried agian when I was older and that woman was such a raging bitch that I walked out and never looked back.
  • special, I don't know your parents but I will say this as a parent: money means NOTHING when compared to your child's well being. I'm sure they think it was money well spent.
  • Yeah, I saw that habs and answered the question. But thanks.

  • Damn I'm late to this. I've only read the last page but that dad is a fuucking moron.

  • Okay, I'm only about halfway through this thread, and the video is blocked here so I can't watch it, but what I'm getting is the teenager talked smack about her parents on FB so dad made a YouTube video about it and shot her laptop.

    The thing that strikes me, is why is she getting punished for this at all?  Assuming she was actually doing her chores, who cares if she happens to bitch about them to her friends?  Maybe I was raised by a weird hippie, but I don't think I even would've gotten in trouble for this, let alone had my personal belongings destroyed.  I think it's crazy that dad is so worked up about this in the first place, and using a gun on someone's belongings is downright abusive to me.  I've done volunteer legal work for victims of domestic violence, and nearly every woman who came to me had a story about how "at first he only destroyed my belongings."  Dad's behavior just screams red flags to me, regardless of whatever his daughter did.

    I think talked smack would be an understatement to what this girl wrote, but you got the general gist.

  • Sorry ladies I also can't read this entire thread...but ya I don't think publicly humiliating your daughter is productive or healthy at all.
