Topic	I was hit as a child and didn't turn out fine
KogaSteelfang 02/26/21 1:04:02 AM #33:	David1988 posted... Some parents hit their kids because theyre just horrible people who sees hitting a child as an opportunity to exercise their power over someone whos weak and defenseless. Other parents hit their kids because they actually think it will discipline them to behave better, it doesnt mean they dont love their child. I dont think you can lump the two in the same category. My dad is this way. A couple of years ago I asked him why he abused me the way he did. He responded with "it made me feel powerful." I was stunned that not only he admitted that he did it, but was also honest on why. Mom hurt me a lot too, but it's clear that he was the cause of that as well. Looking back, it seems as if she was struggling with being an abuse victim too, and it made her quite unstable. So I was dealing with one malicious one, who is unquestionably a sociopath narcissist, and another unpredictable one who could be set off by almost anything. --- Work in progress, please be patient. <cite>KogaSteelfang posted [p:951090287] in I was hit ...
