Terrible ParentingMy parents used to lock my brother, sister and I in the car while they went to the pub for a "quick one" after work. This quick one might last several hours, during which they would send bottles of Indian Tonic Water to us by way of refreshment.
On one particularly cold evening, bored stupid, we lit a small bonfire on the back seat of the car using the cigarette lighter and the contents of the glove box. We owe our lives to passing winos. (BTW: Please no more Maddie or Jesus gags, they've been done.)

Yet I'm still alive..right parents well there are two of them so lets split it into mum and dad..
Mum:
-stopped the car on a country road and made me get out of the car then drove off... she circled round and came back 10 minutes later.. lucky there had been no other passer bys...
-threw me out of the house on a weekly basis, after the 30 or 40th time i didnt even pack my bags i'd just go into town come back and not venture out of my room until things blew over
-made be cook for myself from the age of 13 saying that as a teenager i was old enough to do it myself.
Dad (who I did not live with but visited on weekends)
-would swap my room around whenever he felt like it, i would go one week and my room would have become the office.
-gave all my stuff to his new kids when him and his new wife had kids
-moved said siblings to liverpool so i dont get to see them.
-chased me and my older sister round the house with an axe.. no lie he would literally chase us when we were 6 and 10 around the house with a fire axe shouting he want to see what out brains looked like...
but even after all that i grew up pretty well and am not a rapist, murder or criminal so is that proof that its not the parents fault?
