150K Before WOA 2010

Yeah she has learned that. When she was much younger she put up with bad treatment from some of her friends. I was concerned about that, but now if they give her shit, she pretty much tells them to f@#k off (not in those words but you know what I mean)

Good thing :] It's a rough world out there.

Yea... I mean we're different and so we should be treated differently, but not necessarily unequally.

Though in general I'm grateful to my parents. My dad especially, since not too many dads are so willing to let a girl fresh out of high school travel to Europe for a month mostly alone. Especially with him knowing I'd be around loads of beer, drunks, and that sort of thing.

Your dad has faith in your maturity and good judgement. With that he can feel comfortable with you doing something like that. He probably would not be the same with your sister. As for the equality thing, I believe that most parents try to do their best with their kids, but we're human and make our mistakes along the way.

Yea... I don't even know for sure my sister's still completely clean honestly. Like I wouldn't be too surprised if I found out she's had a beer or two. She's almost definitely had the chance to by now, so no telling what she's done already.

Some people aren't so lucky... like a friend of mine about my age has insanely strict parents. She has to sneak out or lie just to get out of the house sometimes, has to ask permission to stay out past 11pm, etc... it's crazy.

With me, I can be out till 2-3am and my parents won't even know unless I tell them the next day.

Yeah, no matter how hard we may think our parents are, there's always people who have it worse.

Yeah you never know. You just have to hope that she does not do anything she will regret for the rest of her life.

Yea definitely. There are kids whose parents were strict, and then there are kids whose parents beat them... and then the crazy cases where parents strap their kid to a kids' potty and lock them in a room for years.

Yea... we'll have to see I guess.

Yeah sadly there are those extreme cases, and those kids are messed up for life.

 

[808Metal]

And sadly, often kids who are beaten end up growing up and beating their kids

Domestic abuse is often perpetuated. It's a learned behavior.

Domestic abuse is often perpetuated. It's a learned behavior.

Yea, unfortunately. You have to wonder about that actually. Like as a kid, you'd think they would swear never to do that to theirs.
