  That’s just how it was in the 80s/90s. And it wasn’t like I’m saying I and I alone was dealing out justice to all those that pissed me off. I’m saying the reason teachers do this is SPECIFICALLY because of what I’m saying. The one kid does this annoying shit, and the whole classroom sends him home a bloody mess. And when he goes to complain to his mom, and his mom asks “What’d you do?” and he tells her, she punches him in the mouth and tells him to stop being a little shit at school, and the kids will stop beating his ass.

    That second part is harsh but that’s how my grandparents treated my mother in the 60s. She and her siblings would get spanked if she made too much noise in a household of 8. I hope your parents didn’t treat you that way. I want to think some of those attitudes were dropped after the 80s.

      My mom abandoned my dad, and thus me by assosiation, and my dad was so obsessed with asserting he has control of everyone and everything in his life, he usually just took everything out on me. Whether I had anything to do with it or not.

      Nope. Depends on the parent. I still got beat up in the 80s/90s for closing the door too loudly, hitting my brother, waking mum up from an afternoon nap etc. It stopped when I was 17 because I was big enough to hit back (though I never did).

      Man, it’s sad, but I totally believe that could have happened.
