Do you ever stop and consider that your parents may have fucked up your chances in life?
>child prodigy with quantifiably advanced literacy levels >extremely creative and writing full feature scripts and books in primary school >parents discouraged me and said it wasn't a real job >send me to a public high school despite getting an offer to the local academically selective school >I'm consistently bullied and abused >I end up taking 5 years to complete a 3 year degree at uni thanks to horrendous advice and blind trust in my roastie mother >now 25 and still work as a cashier, serving people from my school earning 100K+ and finishing law, medicine and commerce degrees
You can either wait for your mom to die or remove her from your life now.
Isaac Thompson
The worst part is how fucking naive I was. Only now do I learn how the world really is and what is needed to get ahead and how my fucking parents intentionally drove me in the opposite direction when I knew no better. I have a 40K debt and I'm pretty sure clinical depression at this point.
Blake Rivera
Yeah, I grew up in the late 80s/90s and fell through the cracks, parents too busy focused on their careers. Didn't get an Autism diagnosis until 31, parents never bothered to get me checked. Parents excuse: "haha yeah it makes sense now, you were always different to the others" Now I'm doing CBT and other random shit with a Clinical Psychologist but I'm so set in my autistic ways that I'll never have a normal life. One of the "professionals" I've seen was upset at the fact nobody picked it up early in order to avoid me becoming a completely dysfunctional adult. Basically now been a NEET shut-in for half my life (since 16) and I can't "into" normal stuff like going outside and socializing, let a lone getting a job with zero social skills, zero education, and zero qualities.
Considering just becoming a full-time meme creationist to piss off normies.
Lincoln Hughes
you were not a prodigy and you were not advanced in any way.
you were never creative and your writing skills are horrendous.
you deserved to be bullied and abused, and you remain so to this day.
Benjamin Foster
Lol get rekt
Jackson Miller
>writing full feature scripts and books in primary school Post evidence.
Levi Foster
Fuck your stupid mother, that's why they say women's advice are worthless.
Matthew Peterson
>I "was" so naive >I was a super smart prodigy!
You are a run of the mill idiot in denial.
Christian Jones
I'm 99% sure I have autism too but my parents would never get me checked, it's something I'll have to do myself. Social situations are horrifying, communication is hard, change from routine is scary. The autistic guy at my work is more normal seeming and social than me. Hopefully it's not too late to live a normal life (although considering it's been like this for over a decade, I'm probably too set in my ways now to ever be fully functional).
Joshua Bailey
I had advanced literacy skills but, like most kids, was naive in the way the world works or what you have to do to be successful, faggot.

Dylan Long
>blaming others for my failures instead of being a man and taking accountability for my actions stop playing the victim and do something with your life. plenty of successful people whose parents were shit
Anthony Cruz
Me too, raised by blue collar company factory people, told to try and fit in my whole life. Hit 35 and realize most people I know are somewhat.less intelligent than me , but have better "fit in skills" . Designed huge gaschamber.
>stop and consider I realized it three years ago. My mom wore the pants and my dad is a beta cuck (she has cheated on him and he just took it). Dad was at work until my bedtime for most of my childhood and didn't do any real parenting. Mom taught me to respect women and not treat them like sex objects and it's resulted in wizardry. They allowed me to skip gym class and all sports because of mild asthma, so I grew up with lonely sedentiary hobbies and no appreciation for fitness, socialization, or teamwork. They've never been anywhere on time ever, I used to tell them that school events started 30 minutes later than reality, so we'd get there barely on time. Every decision my mom has ever made for me has made my life worse, and the moment I stopped listening to her and did nearly the opposite, everything improved for me.
Don't let women make decisions or take control of any aspect of life, except decorating the house, cooking, and cleaning.
Can we turn this into a general failure at life thread?
>31 >m.sc. economics >never worked a day of my life (properly) >fluent in a handful of languages, never used them for anything except exchange semesters and shitposting >cant find a job, dont even know what I want to do
Ethan Williams
40k in debt? How lol man good luck paying that off >super smart
Evan Long
>Every decision my mom has ever made for me has made my life worse, and the moment I stopped listening to her and did nearly the opposite, everything improved for me.
A-fucking-men. I was socialised to believe my parents (mum in particular) knew best and so I had a lot of blind trust until I was at least 20. I needed her support, I followed her advice, I took her cues. I realised only now that this has actually fucked me up. Learn from my mistakes and try to be independent before it's too late.
Samuel Wilson
What kind of piss-tier gif is that??
Parker Bell
It's going to take years to turn the ship around onto the corrected path (new degree, autism therapy, learning how to live independently). God I hope it isn't too late.
Austin Howard
It was boomer teachers that damaged me. totally unsupportive.
Michael Foster
I know my mom did
>Be me >Raised by a single mom >Mom stopped working because of mental issues >fucks up my life constantly, starts fights with me for no reason >Throws a drink in my face because i play videogames (i was 12 years old) >I bring home my gf >mom cusses her out, tells me i can do better (gf is a solid 9/10) >asks two months later why im always at my gfs house instead
I got so many stories about my childhood, im surprised im not a deadbeat on drugs living on wellfare now
Zachary Miller
>25 and single
You can literally do whatever you want. You ant to write scripts? Do it. Stop being a faggot. You have no kids or a house or a career. Go back to school, move overseas, do nothing. You can do fucking anything you retard.
Camden Edwards
It's not too late user.
Zachary Price
You're missing the point. Years of being doubted and belittled by my mum has left me with low self esteem. I'm also pretty sure I'm autistic but my roastie mother hates autists so would never have me tested. She also had me circumcised so it stunted growth and I can't even cum without lube and a sock.
Jack Bennett
>durrr mommy made me be an incel loser if you weren't such a beta cuck to begin with you wouldn't consider any advice your parents give you between the age of 15-30. also OP's writing skills probably sucked balls.
these nogs know what's up
Jaxon Adams
What a load of BS, you're absolutely pathetic OP. If you were really serious about your writing you wouldn't let anything stand in your way, and you wouldn't make shitty excuses and blame other people for you not doing it. Plenty of famous creative people worked shit jobs to keep the lights on before becoming famous. If you're serious about becoming a writer then persevere with your writing and don't let anything hold you back.
Oliver Richardson
yeah, it kinda is, tho. on the plus side, the welfare system in Germany is going to be changed soon (incidentally because of the migrants) and there will be no more repercussions for not taking up work. so its smooth sailing into doom
Brandon Scott
If you think smart people can't be naive you might be retarded
Aaron Baker
You have your foot in the door. Now become CEO of whichever supermarket franchise you work for. Should be easy since you're so intelligent.
Liam Butler
That’s your own weak mental excuse. You can do it if you want. The truth is you actually enjoy being a worthless peace of shit. Literally anyone can be a chad if they just start acting like it. Get cocky you fag.
Luke Brown

Charles Campbell
You niggers need to learn the difference between specialised aptitude and general intelligence. I dread most human interaction and just want to lock myself alone in my bedroom.
Carter Russell
Also number one advice for dweebs like you and formerly me, travel. Scrape some cash, teach English, whatever, but go overseas for a while alone. That will make you man enough. Just don’t come here to Japan. We have enough retarded weebs and Japan is too developed to really test your metal.
Liam Harris
I have a specialised aptitude. Paradoxical intelligences is a symptom of autism. I haven't been diagnosed, but many people have observed that I might have Asperger's. I too work at a supermarket. We are in the same boat, fren.
Samuel Lee
>I had advanced literacy skills >I read books, therefore I was a prodigy.
Jason Carter
I WROTE books and was 8 years ahead of my reading level in grade 3.
David Moore
No, you stopped writing. Even without your parents helping you, you could have succeeded. You still can.

Zachary Anderson
you do not have "specialised aptitude". you are a subaverage thinker, at best.
grow up and stop blaming your mommy for your many personal failures.
Wyatt Jones
Live your best life man. Good luck
Justin Stewart
no you did not.
Caleb Mitchell
>Mother neglected me, I was her second child and she suffered post-partum depression when she had me because her relationship with my dad had already fallen apart. >Father was an unhinged lunatic who would scream every insult in the book at me for hours. Basically think of how the stereotypical physically abusive alcoholic dad behaves, but he wasn't alcoholic. >I showed countless signs of being miserable and depressed in public school, no one ever noticed. >Can't really think of any sort of parental behavior I was a recipient of. Father yelled and threatened, mother nagged.

Leo Howard
its not too late, but as someone who is older than you, you need to act NOW.
Christian Lee
I have the aptitude tests to prove it. Go away, niggerflag.
Brayden Hernandez
I feel your struggle, I was in the same boat last year. I decided that I would forge my own path, now I'm an independent contractor working as my own boss, doing jobs I want, when I want
Kayden Smith

Andrew Lee
>Nigger flag It must be difficult to comprehend how weak fathers can have an influence on your life when you had none
Evan Young
No user. Do not blame others for your short comings. If you were such a prodigy and your work had potential you'd have been something. If you care so much you should have stuck with it. Do not blame them that you were too much of a coward to do what you believe in.
Jesus user at first I kinda empathized but you sound weak as fuck. You remind me of that fat fuck on YouTube from the south that everyone hates
David Barnes
Yes.
Brayden Gutierrez
Fuck off, kike.
Kayden Rodriguez
Yeah, but there's no point blaming them for what they do. Just cut em off and try and salvage what's left of your time.
Cooper Ortiz
Boomers have that effect on their children
Tyler Myers
Thank you to all the supportive comments in the thread. The reality is, I need to steer the ship around, it is not too late, but it will take time. Fuck my unambitious parents, fuck public schools.
Bentley Edwards
Yeah you need to. But how are you going to say fuck the no ambition parents. YOU are in this mess because YOU don’t have ambition. It’s like one step forward two retarded side steps back. Account for your fucking self man. You will be equally unsuccessful with the it’s everyone’s fault but my own attitude
John Johnson
Oh yeah.

meh I was a 140+ IQ wunderkind as a kid but I dropped out of Uni and do menial labor now Who cares
Ryan Wood
No, they definitely did. My older brother is the eldest and they poured it all into him. He will ne 28 in a few days and he has been jobless for basically a year, almost two. He just got offered a job the other night, refused to take it because it's the night shift. Mind you, we are losing everything we own in the mean time. They completely failed raising him to be a healthy adult Male. He even fucked college up. Something they could never afford for me. They poured all their effort into 1 child and it was actually a complete waste. Thanks Mom & Dad.
Asher Stewart
Holy shit he was a kid you illiterate fuck. Tell me one kid who knows what the real world is like cuck.
Aaron Gomez
Jew. JIDF. Isaelli. Kike scum. Disgusting kike scum. Fuck of and kill yourself.

To this day my parents are in denial about how fundamentally they fucked up my brother and I. He's what he is, and I'm a lone wolf personality doomed to die alone.
