When I was small, my mom and dad was having a fight in the car and my older sister said if they wont stop she will jump out of the car. She really looked like she was gonna do it.
I still remembered how scared I was that particular day.

Hmmmm. Childhood...
Does 5th grade count?
When my dad's business start going downhill among tangling himself with at least on other woman, my mom's temper got increasingly worse. Home was not a very good place to be especially if you're a typical, occasional disobedient kid. One day as my mom prepared to pick up my dad from the airport and found out I had not been studying like I should, she pushed me outta the door and said she had disowned me.
Fueled by all that I'd seen so far with my parents marriage, and school stress, I went up to the rooftop and stayed up there for 2 hours comtemplating on jumping off of the rooftop. It was a 6 floor building, and I was 11.
I still remember that day vividly, it was a bit rainy, so it probably didn't help the mood.
Whenever I feel down I think about this event and all of a sudden things don't look as bad anymore.

^ Hahahahahahahaha
Oh, I shouldn't laugh at that should I?
Um, I'm not going to mention any experiences, suffice to say they all make you a stronger person at the end (unless it was the priest who took away your *innocence*)

Okay, here goes. When I was in 3rd grade I think (maybe the summer between 3rd and 4th grade), my mom was dating this alcoholic, druggie loser who decided to come home at 4 AM totally wasted and point a gun and my mother, sister, and I (who were all cuddled in the same bed, Asian-style). He screamed at us and threatened to shoot us and/or commit suicide in front of us for a good hour before finally leaving and passing out on the bathroom floor. The next day, he acted like everything was fine and what had happened wasn't a big deal because the gun "wasn't even loaded." Yeah, like a sleepy 8 year old knows that. He died from an overdoes a few years ago, and no I didn't attend that jerk's funeral.

I remember going to camp my high school year but you had two groups to hang with ....the angry disgruntled street kids with chips on their shoulders or the stuck up 90210 white kids who only dated eachother. I was neither and this guy who liked me then hated me cuz I didn't like him bullied me on the trip almost abusive like and when I was arm and arm with one of my buddies screamed really loud "Get away from that dog" infront of a guy I did like who just stood there and silently kinda agreed.

When I was little I had to go to my EVIL auntie's apartment cos my parents insisted she babysit me. Weird,.... *shudder*... now that I think about it, I'm lucky I survived.
She was really my 'grand-auntie' ie grandma's sister but there was nothing "grand" about her. She wore this ugly purple makeup and I swear when I looked into her face I screamed and hid behind a corner. Then dad smacked me for not showing respect. Aunty Agony then took me upstairs into her creeky apartment and tried to feed me this horrible cake but I felt like throwing up.
I reackon Aunty Agony was on crack.

Ask any psychologist and they tell you that it's not always the case. Sometimes events can haunt people forever instead of empower them. |

Mine? My mouth was taped with duct tape! Caning. Standing in a corner facing the wall until I passed out (no food). I've had similar. and seriously, i dont think i was a bad kid. slippers thrown at me. being beat by steel hangers. hit by the beloved chicken feather stick thing. getting knocked on the head by knuckles. kneeling facing the wall and pulling on my ears. worst was probably getting chased round the house with a big fat butchers knife. i had to lock myself up in the bathroom cos my mum looked like she was really gonna use it that time, my sister practically had to beg for my life. i can laugh at it now, and my mum denies it happening, but i survived it.. |

Christmas 1987, my parents got me the regular Optimus Prime instead of the deluxe version with the electronic sound and light actions.
I took it pretty hard and to this day still haven't fully forgiven them.

I am convinced some people should never be parents.

Is this how white parents bring up their kids?? I detect a distinct sense that most of the bad childhood experiences are related to the Asian side of the parenting.
