My parents were fine, and now I’m a successful adult that can live on my own.

And you have nothing better to do than defend child abuse?

Out of curiosity, did they hit you? It's the first thing that comes to mind when you try the "I turned out fine" defense.

No, making your kid do chores as a condition of the free life they have isn’t abuse.

Making them do work for you is abuse. They don't have a free life. They can't move out and they're punished if they don't follow orders.

Stop being a pussy

Am I cat, or a vagina? I'm fond of both, so I'm unclear on the insult here. Are you a playground bully? Did your parents forget to help you grow up?

    For you? It's for them also. It's for the family.

    The family they did not choose and cannot leave. Children owe their parents nothing.

    “You can play video games AFTER you do your chores.”

    “I DIDN’T ASK TO BE BORN! THIS IS ABUSE!”

    Jesus fucking Christ sometimes I forget 13 year old emo kids are on the same internet as me.
