I was on Reddit (of course it was on there), and someone was complaining about how their parents abuse them, guilt-trip them, and make them do a bunch of work and people downvoted them.
They were just like “That’s not abuse” or “How about you grow up cupcake, that’s not abuse” or “Does this poor thing need a bottle? Grow up. All because your parents made you do simple work. Toughen up, precious.”
Seriously, maybe I’m overreacting, but it seemed kind of gross and rude to me. How about we don’t react to people’s vents this way? Of course it was the Redditors.
I mean, I can’t say if it was fucked up or not because you didn’t link the post. But there have been plenty of teenagers ranting about “being abused” on Reddit and other SM because they were made to do chores or other normal teenage things. For all I know, this is one of those times.
I probably misremembered the contents of the post, IIRC it was this one: https://www.reddit.com/r/texts/comments/17biqeb/my_parents_are_so_controlling/
It actually could’ve been one of those posts, and I misremembered. I saw it yesterday.
you could’ve misremembered or taken it the wrong way, I’d say this is just a teenager exhausted from chores and such.
It says they put their hands on them but IDK
Everything in the linked post is just chores and being a member of a household, didn’t see anything from the person who posted saying their parents put their hands on them.
Now putting hands on someone would be abuse, but that wouldn’t make helping out around the house abuse.
