Do you blame your parents for your lack of stregnth?
Do you blame your parents for your lack of stregnth?
I dont blame them, but I was a mouth-breathing loser and wish they had have taken a more active role in actually parenting me / raising me instead of me just kind of existing watching tv and playing video games with a slack jaw for 15 years really took its toll one me. If I ever have kids, and have actually custody of them, I'll be better,
This desu
I don't blame or hate my parents, they were retards but once I turned 18 and got on meds and got Jow Forums in six months.
i think they could do better job, but no one others is to blame except if i would end up a slack of fuckshit
no, because i dont lack strength and i could only cultivate it by being lucky enough to be a zoomer in the internet age, but if i did they’d certainly be at least somewhat culpable
the nietzschean gospel of carving yourself and your own destiny out of sheer effort and overcoming of struggle is fine and dandy but when you were raised in the 90s with absolutely no meaningful role models or healthy masculine guidance AND no vast pool of information that could offer you your own route to self actualization (the internet) youre kinda fucked from the beginning and when it happens on a cultural level you end up with millennials
i pity her
Thanks to them Im 1st dan in krav maga and have 5 year experience playing the guitar
I think they did their job
Tbh I only started getting Jow Forums cause I fell in love with an ugly paki girl in high school. Managed to date people prettier than her, and I’m going to graduate college early and get a good career but I’m still in love with her. I still remember the slight beard I could see on her face, and the long hair curls she had. Then her short hair when her parents made her cut it. And that tie dye shirt she used to wear, and the long skirt she wore which went down to her feet, and those brown eyes which have such an innocent look. It’s prolly cause of the fact that she was one of the few people who treated me nicely even though I was a fat fuck in high school.
I have 2 drug addict retard parents, they made me stronger
Pure post.
no, it's all my fault
we're all going to make it nonetheless
user.... That was... I'm-
My mom and dad forced me to do stuff I didn't like all the time and I love them for doing so
My mum got me into gymnastics to help stop my agonising growing pains. A GP suggested it to increase flexibility.
It gave me a good base which translated into other sports, specifically hurdling and tkd which i competed in at pretty high levels.
I was never forced into any sport though.
Absolutely. I don't believe anyone, not even the most retarded faggot pussy pencil neck 100lb twink incel, was born that way. I was a fucking autistic retard as a kid but my parents could have manipulated or forced me to do more sports and be more active and I would have been thankful for it later. Now I'm just sad that I can never be the absolute best version of my genetic potential. I will still do everything it takes to be the best strongest version of my current self
Last time I talked to her was in June 2014 lads, haven’t seen or talked to her since.
Still remember the date, June 9th a Monday. Ussually if it’s gym day on that day I work twice as hard then lock myself in my room and remenisce
do we tell him lads
Yep, whilst my friends were learning muay thai or boxing I wasn't allowed to go. My mum thought I would get hurt. Then as I grew older I wanted to lift but again, I wasn't allowed. I'd get hurt. So I sat inside all day playing video games.
Diet was shit, no meat or processed meat. My mum mainly cooked vegetarian meals. I started lifting at 21, I couldnt do a press up and I was skinnyfat at 65kg....im now 31 and 90kg ....but still my genetics are shit tier.
Inb4 faggot yes god, the positive of this is I’m immune to thots now. Ussually most people just orbit thots while I’m too busy doing it for her.
Why don't you just ask her out? I'm sure no one is really interested in a bearded paki girl.
I'm not pissed at them for it, but it really kinda is partially their fault. They kept me strong by taking me hiking, having me do sports/martial arts, and having me wrestle with my dad/friends/friends' relatives/that trailer park kid that always showed up to barbecues despite nobody wanting him there. But my diet was ass because A: I fought them on it like any kid, and B: because they let me win, to the point that I was eating nothing but turkey bacon, Cheez-its, various types of fried chicken, and mashed potatoes/fries. I've done a decent job of fixing myself since then, but they could have done a better job of getting me to eat.
Unless you were abused by your parents, blaming parents is a pathetic mindset. You are your own person, responsible for yourself and your self growth. Look at the animal kingdom. Newborns learn the absolute bare minimum from their parents and then they leave and venture on their own at very young ages.
I was raised by my mom, who fell for the single empowered woman meme. She just let me do whatever I wanted and always told me I was a genius. The only thing she forced me to do was take piano lessons from my annoying flamboyant french teacher. I'm pretty fkn pissed about the whole thing tbqh.
Ummmm dumbass
I haven’t seen her in 4 years, I don’t know where she is. God if I could I’d do it I know I’m capable of it. Literally did what that other user did with dating the 7 to practice for the 5.
I remember when i was a kid my mom took me to take an xray of my wrists to see how much i would grow. The doctor said i was going to be 6'3~6'4 if i was active with a good diet. But i was retarded and wanted to stay home playing videogames and stuffing my face with crap food, mom took me out of swimming classes so i could spent all day playing games. Now i'm a 6'1 skinny fat.
I wish i could go back...
Never heard of Facebook, cum dumpster?
Well said
Oh fuck off. My parents are legitimately responsible for my failure in life. when I was 14 I got into knitting pillowcases as a hobby and fucking LOVED it, it meant everything to me. So my parents had to bully me for it and make discouraging jokes. for example they used to call me the 'Pil-low-nely Loser' because I was knitting pillows instead of getting girls, when I knitted them a nice pillow for their bed my dad let the dog sit on it and it got covered in dog shit, they once caught me making a pillow with a brick wall texture and started laughing hard about how 'user wants to sleep on a WALL', 'won't your head hurt user?', 'are you going to dream about being spiderman climbing a building user' etc etc. also they used to have pillow fights with my pillows to make them get damaged, my dad once pretended to be concussed for a day because my mum hit him with the brick pattern pillow. fucking cunts ruined my confidence forever. fuck off OP bellend.
Tried, nothing
Skype, deleted her account
Number, she changed it long ago got answered by a nice old lady from Alabama with a nigress accent
Why don't you knit yourself a thong pussy boi
I know that I would be a better parent than either of them. But there's no point in dwelling on the past, especially when I wasn't in very much control.
No common friends?
this
but we dont develop the way animals do. we’re born long before we can fend for ourselves because a) our heads are fucking huge and pussies are tiny and b) our niche is so complicated and we rely on verbal abstractions so heavily we have to be taught things for a long time before we’re fully capable humans. have some compassion, sins of omission are often just as damaging as sins of commission
Millennials BTFO. ZOOM ZOOM!
Jesus Christ, user. I just want to hold you and tell you everything is going to be okay.
I mean when i have children im gonna make em olympian tier kids pretty much ill also make them earn their shit
Bitch wants an iphone? Lemme see that A+ first
Grew up to his 12s now he wants a playstation? Introduce us to your girlfriend first
14 and wants rolex watch? Lemme see if he achieved any of his goals hes passionate about
20 and wants a benz? I doubt hed need my help at this point, proud of em :')
I would have liked some guidance in my hobbies, I guess. I actually passed a significant amount of time teaching myself my hobbies, but I never got to a decent level cause I kept going around in circles. I wish they would have forced me to take lessons rather than following a million YouTube tutorials.
Anyway, I have control over what I do now, so I can only blame myself for what happens next.
Suddenly kids don't like to rebel against their parents?
Why is she online post this retarded shit instead of working out or out playing a solo sport?
Nope, and after high school I distanced myself from all my high school friends. Since I didn’t really care for any of them except for her.
>grows up with unrestricted access to technology and the internet, turned out reasonably okay
>thinks denying his children nearly all access to technology unless they have outstanding grades in a demonstrably bullshit education (grades far higher than he had) is going to make them anything other than riddled with inferiority complexes and fully autistic
enjoy your army of elliots you spaz
She probably thinks getting into a sport would have got her famous and easy money.
stop blaming your parents. you have control of your own life now. i'm sorry that happened to you though, they sound like cunts. why dont you knit pillows again? i'm sure people in your life now would actually appreciate it.
I wish I'd grown up in America or Canada. You guys do so much cool shit out of school - sports, dance lessons, debate teams, volunteering... in Europe we just stand around being faggots.
yes my parents wouldn't let me start lifting when i was 14 and skinny as fuck i had to wait until i moved out for college when i was a few months short of 17
Try to expand out of YouTube tutorials. Tons of paid tutorials you can just download instead.
Sarcastic post right? Even women can't be that dumb
Nah, actually my dad had me "lifting" (lmao soloflex) when I was like 8.
There's no ideal parenting manual out there, and most people aren't perfect parents. It's just how it is, doesn't mean I would blame them.
You probably could have gotten a girl with your pillows
No that's fucking retarded
You have no excuse past 12
>mfw born in 87
My parents were liberals too
It'a always been massively popular to blame your personal shortcomings on your upbringing.
Only now anyone who wants to play that card can do it very publicly with no barrier to entry.
keep doing it in your spare time, like a small hobby or something, it sounds cool and exotic enough
of course there isnt. perfection is an unrealistic standard. but most parents shouldnt need to exert much mental effort to come to the conclusion that shielding their children from healthy amounts of risk and challenge and replacing them with vapid, propagandistic media, feeding them pounds upon pounds of processed shit, and offering no guidance in life other than “just b urslef :)” for the entirety of their childhood is a terrible fucking idea. alas, this meager parenting standard could not be met by gen x
I was "raised" by a single mother.
My life as a child was a blur of television, old videogames, hiding from landlords, and neurotic bitch freakouts.
The sad thing is I feel like I could be a really good father but I'll never know because the personality I ended up with after that childhood is pretty much pure vagina repellent.
My parents are great. They were basically the Chad and Stacy of their time. They love me unconditionally and blessed me with great genetics. I’ll forever be grateful to them.
Nah, my parents encouraged me to do more.
Played really young kids AFL for a bit, cricket, soccer for a few years, did some judo. Thing that really stuck was cycling as that was how I had to get to and from school, plus I guess it was my car before a car, it was how I saw friends, it was how I got out and away. Maybe thats why I never cared so much about getting my license.
Also have some basic guitar skills, I was the oldest so I had to help take care of siblings which probably did me some good, as well as breeding some resentment because they never had to do as much.
I'm 28 and I'd still like to find one of these girls, minus the beard anyway. Probably doesn't help that I spent 5 years in an abusive relationship. I think I just let one slip away too. I just want to be loved.
Can you go more in depth about that? What kind of meds?
Retard. Millennials have learned far more from the internet age than zoomers and boomers put together.
The internet age is the millennial age.
My theory is that we tend to do the opposite our parents did to us. So since our parents' parents were so controlling in every step of their lives, our parents think we should just be free to decide what's best to us.
retard, millennials were born between 1982-1990, theyre called “millennials” because they joined the work force at or around 2000, meaning they’d have to be around 16-25 by then. millennials didnt spend their middle school years watching hours and hours and hours and hours of tutorials to learn their own hobbies and teaching themselves skills the way zoomers do (the non-retarded ones, at least). the younger millennials got to see early goofy youtube in their late adolescence, but it wasnt terribly sophisticated then.
I already pity your kids
>get bullied by my parents for making pillows
>end up on an Indonesian pillow weaving forum anyways
Looks like things worked out to me, user.
I remember when I was young, I wanted to participate in something called "the gap to gap", which was a run in yakima wa. It was kind of like a really light iron man.
I had been participating in cross country, biking etc. So I'd bother my dad to sign me up, since I was like 13. Year after year he'd say he did and then never bother to actually do it.
Then my parents got divorced, moved away and I stopped being active. For some reason, 10 years later, I remembered that when seeing this thread.
I'd really love to do an ironman in a year and to stay active. Now that I've been working out for a while, I feel like I've found my younger self again after the years of sedentary depression. Except now my dad can't slow me down like he used to. I think for my kids, I'll actually encourage them to participate in things like the gap to gap. I think I'll lead by example too, which is something my parents never did (they were both obscenely fat).
I blame my shitty schools for not having sports and my shitty self for not taking any initiative.
your theory is dumb.
people try to fix the mistakes their parents made in raising them when they start their own family. however, most parents, even some non-shit ones, refuse to tell their children the full, uncut story of how they made their family, from their own childhood through when they met their spouse right up until the child’s adulthood. when people arent told the full story of how they were raised, its not possible to accurately fix the mistakes their parents made and they end up repeating those mistakes exactly or making even worse mistakes to try and do the opposite of what their parents did.
moral of the story: TELL YOUR KIDS HOW YOU MADE THEM. tell them how you grew up, tell them how you met their mother, tell them why you chose their mother to give birth to them, tell them every little detail of their upbringing. that is the only way the eternal cycle of parental delinquency can be broken.

I do.
I used to do karate as a little kid and one day i decided i was too tired to go to a class and mom asked if i just want to quit it all together. I said yes because i realized i could just play games all day.
Should have forced me to go. You can't blame little kids for their lack of responsibility and discipline.
Will you teach me to knit pillows?
Godspeed user. You will. I have faith in you.
You are an exception to the rule. Your parents were abusive. That isn't to say that you can't be successful though. Good luck user.
told, not only the full story isn't told, people themselves barely remember it, even then it's their own special kind of "remembering"
is right, when it comes to it, sometimes people just pick the opposite
>I remember getting my ass beat ow oww ouchie oof ow
>Guess I won't do that to my child
see?
not only won't it help, it still comes to choices like that in the end.
Goal body & personality
>Even women can't be that dumb
Millenials and the internet grew up together
Zoomers get the full force of the internet. They're well connected from 8 years old with iPhones and tablets
Haha I hated mine at the time but they put my through rugby cause I was getting chubby at 12
But looking back at it, I'm pretty thankful because it forced me not to be a pussy
No if they weren't so weak I might not have felt the drive to be strong

no
>took me to football (didn't like it)
>took me to wrestling (liked it but moved and quit due to finding a shitty club)
>took me to archery (wasn't worth it really)
I was just a lazy kid
still lazy but I'm not oblivious to the beauty of fitness anymore
>Diet was shit
>no processed meat
Something doesn't seem quite right here.
>Born in 83
This hit hard friend.
Obviously you should try to let go of any resentment you have towards your parents for what they did and didn't go for your own well-being and because you can't change the past but don't suggest that animals and humans are the same you absolute mongrel.
why is everyone a fuckng loser here? i played a lot of sports and vidya growing up. always had hobbies
If those are your pillows they look pretty cool
I blame my parents for trusting everyone and everything to my own detriment. Both worked for the government and I was raised to basically never question anything someone with authority did. It's fucked me over in a dozen ways.
But no my dad took me to the gym when I was 14 and that's been great.
>my dad once pretended to be concussed for a day because my mum hit him with the brick pattern pillow
Sort of. My parents got me into sports and hunting and shit young and I loved it, but there were some other mistakes made. My mom and a few of the other Christian families (v small bullshit liberal town) decided to take it upon themselves to basically force us all to be friends almost exclusively, so while young we were kinda isolated from the normies outside of school. I had a lot of unsupervised time, WHICH IS AWESOME AND NECESSARY FOR DEVELOPMENT, but I took it pretty far and basically sperged out knocking over dead trees in the woods and lighting fires (almost caused a forest fire once. I was 13). I was also pulled out of school for homeschooling in 5th and 6th grade, and that absolutely fucked my social development. One time I convinced my mom to buy me black powder ("its just for smoke bombs!") and ended up making a legit lacrosse stick cannon I would shoot rocks out of.
I had a lot of fun doing fucked autistic shit but I suffered in middle school because my parents failed to give me adequate opportunity to socialized. Kids were scared of me, some even thought I might shoot up the school (like I would shoot good white americans when I could shoot and remove kebabs lol).
Then in highschool I mellowed out, got really good at one sport, started drinking with the party kids, and everything worked out. Had girlfriends, my best friends and I were the closest thing to a "popular kids" clique our school had, was runner up for prom king etc.
Probably would've been a lot different if i was really ugly tho
I just want to have some kids and max out their physical development in a way where they don't get neuroses from having a retarded incel father who thinks locking them in the cellar until they can perform a perfect form 2 plate deadlift will produce an "alpha male"
I blame my parents for my lack of foreskin, autism, psychological issues, and manlet genes (5'9"). Those are perfectly valid claims against my parents.
I don't blame them because they are from a very different time. They met in church and married young like their parents and every other generation before them.
I have to build chad to not only compete with the rest of the Church youth group but also everyone within a driveable radius AND practically anyone else over the internet. Not least to consider parents often intentionally raise their kids to be unnattractive so they don't feel cucked. (Speaking of cucked) I've dated single mothers and milfs that have confirmed this.
I lift. I'm an above average martial artist, I have loads of hobbies. I developed those largely myself. My Dad tried to get my into the guitar but i didn't take to it and my mum has no hobbies herself.
I can't give my Dad shit for not teaching me how to squat. He's never squat a barbell in his life and very possibly none of my ancestors have either.
I can't pinpoint a time in my life where i wasn't a loser and my parents knew it. I don't blame them for that state of affairs I do have an immense chip on my shoulder for a terrible school system that stamped the will to work out of me and my parents weren't too inspiring there but again. They prepared me for a different time. My Dad's had the same career job since he was 14 in the late 60s. Not a man to ask about getting a good career.
>xray of my wrists to see how much i would grow
What pseudoscience is this
my dad joked about me not being able to even cut a piece of bread in front of all my schoolfriends, he scolded me for eating something of his out of the fridge and cleared a small shelf for me in the kitchen that was for my food
he said we arent father and son while living together but room-mates, he constantly even today makes jokes about me not being the brightest but that he still likes me, stuff like that, offhand critiques that really drive me crazy, my mom was a neurotic freak that tried to destroy me from the inside because I reminded her of my dad so much, man, living there was pain, a blank slate of loneliness and anger
Beautiful
I blame them for being autistic but they tried it was just too late and they were too ill-equipped to deal with it.
I don't get why this generation has so many fucking year ranges and explanations but, that's the worst description and year range I've seen yet. Really.
cont.. I don't speak to my dad and will not until the day he admits that he was acting like a selfish faggot but that day will not come. I made my peace and try not to even think about the time I spent there and how I felt, I am so grateful for peace of mind and good people.. I tried to mask my feelings with drinking until blackout and smoking weed like I was a fiend, couldn't have pulled through without my cat I think
I saw my friends have healthy, loving relationships in their families and it tore me apart, the whole situation. Saw a little kid in a movie get told by his dad that he believed in him and that he is proud of him and it twisted me inside. This whole bullshit made me strong in the head and my patience is huge but I carry a rage with me
reminder to euthanize your kids if they're born with some kind of obvious deformity that will impact their lives forever
We actually developed our hobbies places like this /po/ for instance is mine. Until zoomers made this a place for woe is me no gf shit and shitposting for the attention they want but cant get in real life.
