Hanging out with my nieces/nephews I now understand most the discipline I received as a child was most likely because I was being annoying and nothing to do with right or wrong. in c/[email protected]

My dad was a drunken asshole who grew up in a tough world. He wasn't suited to fatherhood, and wasn't prepared to deal with a kid that was not him.

I suspect he had his own ND issues that would have been even more difficult for him do deal with as a kid in the 40s and 50s, not to mention his parents.

He was probably raised with the same kind of abuse I was, and more. I don't hate him.

As an ADHD kid in the 60s and 70s, I was punished for existing by most teachers/school boards, other kids, and my father.

(That doesn't mean that I wasn't hella annoying, of course.)

That being said, I agree.

When you don't have viable choices, that is most certainly NOT 'being satisfied with that'.
