    Straighten somebody out as my Dad would say. At around 15 I turned on my mother, she beat myself and brother like pet dogs for years.

    I got into throwing hands in college where I would go loco and kick the ****e out of some ****. However it would always be with a group though, The rare times The red mist descended and exploded and I acted alone I would always feel genuine guilt afterwards.

    What I get from this is that it is ok to beat the crap out of someone in a group but not on your own, unless it is your mother.
    Am I reading this right?

    Nope.

    I've hit people in defence, that's about it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,380 ✭✭✭✭Banjo String


    Yes.

    E Honda on street fighter two.

    He was giving it socks with his torpedoes dives and hundred hand slaps, but I was 'sadouken'! Him all over the shop. Even got a 'perfect' :) happy days.

    I've only really punched one person. Mother's boyfriend at the time. He was a proper sociopath. Said something about my father so I punched him in the head a hard as I could.

    Why would anyone beat a pet dog?

    Poor fcuker having to go through that. I will say this. You experienced violence and disliked it. So don't introduce it to others.

    We were treated like dogs, anytime the bitch didn't have her meds she'd give us a good trashing. For a simple thing like not having your bed made or not taking your plate up from the table. Belt strap to the arse, slamming doors in your face, General intimidation. A violent bitch who myself and bro deeply feared.

    Obviously your mother was half mad(come to think of it,typing that sentence is a first for me) Anyway you have two choices. Dwell on it and use her as an excuse for all your behaviour or ,Man up, put it behind you and behave like a real man.

    Yes for deep-seated Emotionally/psychological harm/abuse man up... :rolleyes:

    And what would you recommend? Spend years(plus a small fortune) talking things through with a 'professional'? Very few people that I know were born with a silver spoon in their mouth but a lot of people that I know drift through life blaming everyone and anyone for all their woes. Unless this guy is a head case like his mother then he has no excuse for acting like a thug.

    I was not talking about the violence I was talking about the suggestion of just "Man Up" As a sufferer of chronic Depression it kind of greats the grain when I hear stuff like that. I am not suggesting violence as an outlet.

    In a lot of fights in my teens. I would say at least 20 fights but have not been in one since I was about 21. Since the kids came a long I actively avoid confrontation with people.

    Your ma sounds like a hateful cnut. She sounds mean.

    I thankfully didn't have an upbringing like that, but was brought up on a pretty rough council estate, I feel I learned far more about life going up like that than I ever did in school or college, in my opinion I learned how to be fair treat people with respect and I also learned if they don't treat u with respect then it's time for a few slaps, had a few fights in my time never started any of them, got attacked by a bunch of scummys one day walking home from work they gave me a good pasting for nothing literally nothing, but I got each of them on there own over time and they got equally as good of a pasting back, there are just some people out there and all they understand is a good beating talking to this people does not work simple as that

    A damaged woman who had no business having children, I feel more sorry for my father hooking up with her and getting tied down. He's a lovely man.

    Where is she now? Would you or your brother have much to do with her at all??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,499 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND

    Herself and my Dad are still living together. I don't have much to do with her at all, she's a pillhead, and will go through stages where she takes her sleepers in bulk and zonks about the household. She never worked a job in her life, my dad takes care of her. I work with my Dad and my brother works further a field, my contact with her is minimal, the only time I see her is when I bring my son around.

    He sounds it. I'm very sorry to hear about your mom.

    How is she with your son? Would she treat him ok?

    You dad sounds like a top bloke

    She loves him and I know that. She's always acted that way towards him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 159 ✭✭Laoislion8383

    Fair enough, fair play to you for letting her even see him, after a childhood like she gave you I doubt I would have anything to do with her.

    What do you suggest he does? My choice of words 'man up' might not be the best but whether you want to call it 'shape up' 'straighten yourself up' or whatever, you get the gist of it. We get one shot at life and nobody but nobody can live your life for you and if I decide to go out tonight and clock someone or if I decide to take to the bed for three days then those are my choices . There may be underlying causes for me doing that but ultimately I am responsible for my own actions.

    Yes regularly. I furiously beat my meat on a daily basis. I've even known to choke a chicken or two.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,670 ✭✭✭renegademaster


    Was bullied in my youth and had the fear, then once got into an argument with a bloke from work I was on the piss with and beat seven shades of ****e out of him after he had the first 2 punches.

    One time I tackled a gang of 3 travelers on a packed bus that were being verbally and physically racially abusive.

    Eek.

    "I beat the snot out of my mum, I've beaten people with groups, I've beaten people on my own...but I regretted beating people on my own..."

    There's a lot if issues in the OP. Never beat anyone, never crossed my mind and never felt any need to raise my fists, and just don't get beating up a woman whether it be a mum, wife, whatever.

    But do admire your honesty.

    Never been in a fight in my life, never thrown a punch in anger,

    When did you throw one in happiness? When does anyone??

    I've been in plenty of fights/had the **** kicked out of me when I was a kid more times than I can count. Only difference is I lost all my fights :(
