  Another funny one that I have heard from friends (but never experienced myself) is dads justifying their behaviour by explaining that their dad was worse.

  "Boy, if you think I'm an asshole, you have no idea! My dad... now there was an asshole!"

  I had a friend who was beaten by his dad growing up. As he got a bit older, he would confront his dad about it. His dad's defence was that HIS dad beat him even worse, and he should be thankful that he's getting softer beatings.

  • this is true. one day my kids will claim to be traumatized because i raise my voice at them. Then, their kids will claim abuse because they looked at them cross_niko
  • Maybe, but there is a clear difference between a raised voice and getting physically beaten.nb
