Encouragement

By peallow - 12/05/2013 05:01 - Puerto Rico - San Juan

Today, I asked my father if he was proud that I have never done drugs, never drank alcohol, never had sex, never had psychological problems, never been to the hospital for something serious, never been in a fight and maintain good grades. He told me I was a boring daughter. FML

It is definitely something to be proud of but surely if you'd had or currently had a physiological issue, as it's not something you have control of it's not something one can be proud of? Does that make sense? :/

Ya I'm kinda pissed about the psychological problems. Sure, be happy that oh don't have any, they're a pain in the ass but it's not something to be proud of as you don't have any say in it

Exactly, ill admit I have plenty of psychological problems (depression, anxiety etc) but its not something I should be ashamed of just as someone without those problems should feel 'proud' they don't have them. If anything they should feel lucky not to have them, I know I would.

It's also not shameful to have been to the hospital for something serious, because that wouldn't be in your control either. Not unless you were at the hospital for starting a fight or something.

Well, that's gratiture for you. In a world where you'd be considered a roll model you're called boring. Why do most people's families suck ob here though? seriously

especially when those hot steamy rolls are shimmering in butter, gracefully showing their delectable curves.

Exactly. I bet the only reason he said that was to get her to shut up.

She doesn't know about "grass" or "green" she doesn't smoke weed.

Well, I can see the good grades things, but some other nations (like Japan) would be neutral about the sex thing...or at least part of Japan. I guess it just depends on how the parents see sex...

Don't worry my parents think the same way about me. It's not a bad thing just be who you are :)

Why is being a partying troublemaker considered fun?
