Kane99 Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 I've seen many vids online of parents destroying their children's consoles because of bad behavior. That sort of thing has never happened to me. I haven't had so much of a console taken away from me either. But, has anyone here had a parent that took their consoles away or even destroyed them if you didn't behave? I want to hear your stories and why your parents did it.
StaceyPowers Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 No, but they were those kinds of people. Destroying property is terrible parenting. The message it sends is, "You and the things you care about are not safe. And oh, by the way--this kind of behaviour is okay, so feel free to do it to others."
The Blackangel Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 No, because I was the preferred target. My sperm donor would beat the shit out of me while my egg donor cheered him on. They didn't care about any of the stuff I had. It kept me quiet. If I was quiet I was out of the way until my next beating. That was usually around 6-7 in the evening. Just before dinner. If I couldn't make it to the table, I couldn't eat which saved food, which in turn saved money. So for them it was a win-win.
Patrik Posted January 23, 2021 Posted January 23, 2021 Nope, they never did, because there was simply no reason for them to do so, i grew up being a good student with good marks ( was still nolifing games 😛 )
staticradio725 Posted January 23, 2021 Posted January 23, 2021 Nope, because I didn't get into gaming until I was in college. Lucky me, apparently.
m76 Posted January 23, 2021 Posted January 23, 2021 I didn't have a gaming console until I started doing jobs on the side before dropping out of college.
The Blackangel Posted January 23, 2021 Posted January 23, 2021 I dropped out of high school, and like the moron that I am, decided to enlist. Dropping out was the only option I had due to bullying. But enlisting was the worst mistake I have ever made in my life. I've tried counseling, but that only made the memories worse. It's a big part of why I'm a former addict.
killamch89 Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 Not that I can remember because I did very well in my academics and that was all that mattered to my mother. She didn't care much about the fights I used to get into at high school.
Heatman Posted August 20, 2021 Posted August 20, 2021 They didn't brake or take my games but rather they had me grounded from playing for three long weeks which was a horrible experience for me.
