    What the fuck is your door made of? If an angry kick breaks it, I promise it ain't $300

    It ain't, but the handyman you pay to install it is.

    This is privileged tantrum-having.

    My tantrums were never property destructive. I grew up poor and I would have been murdered for that. I rage plenty, but never outwardly toward objects.

    My tantrums, instead, were and have continued to be personally destructive. I make people hate me, I ruin all the things that matter.

    Yeah, if I'd have destroyed something in a tantrum, I just wouldn't have had that thing anymore. It didn't even matter if we could afford a replacement or not - I wouldn't get anything my parents couldn't trust me with.

    Throwing a tantrum at 60: you vote for a fascist and crash the economy.

    feeling good about my parenting skills, my kid's tantrums are getting shorter and shorter. she screams, cries, kicks her legs, all on the floor. She only gets anything once she starts to be calm.

    She gets things after a tantrum once she is calm again or not at all then?

    Let's say she wants to play with crayons when it's time to eat. If she starts throwing a tantrum, I lie her down on the ground and don't pay attention to her, except to say "we will hug and go get your fruit when you are calm". When the tantrum is finished, I ask her "are you calm?" and if she says yes, we hug, I clean her up, and give her the fruit.

    Until she calms down, I don't pay attention to her, except to re-iterate that she will have more stiumulus once she is calm.

    65: Kids are out of the house, you have some money to fix a broken door, but you're just too damn tired to go breaking things or screaming about it. Also, the reason for the tantrum happened 30 years ago. So you tell your family a pointless, rambling, mind-numbingly boring story about it at Thanksgiving, instead.

    Lol, people can't afford to have kids by 30. What universe is this post from?

    Lol, people can’t afford to have kids by 30.

    I can guarantee you

    1. People have kids whether they can afford them or not
    2. Different levels of social integration lead to different support structures for child-rearing which leads to different life stages when people can/do have kids at different financial points.

    I mean, this is why social media is full of videos of dudes sitting in their trucks complaining about how everyone's crazy now.

    Throwing a tantrum as a parent: Just tell your kid you're strict, then scream at them for every little thing.

    That feeling when 30 is the expected time to have kids already and you are reminded you are not allowed to ever responsibly raise children of your own in this one life you get on this dying planet.

    I hate this world

    I wonder if he hates that this is the picture of him people feel most expression from, instead of one of the films he busted his ass to make

    I'm 16. My tantrums consist of crying in my room.

    This hurt my soul, I dated a NARC that used to love throwing my personal phone, not their own. Luckily that was during the years when phones only costing 100-200 dollars. Now these fuckers cost 1000-1500 dollars.

    Usually by the age of 27 you're not throwing random tantrums, lol. Keep your emotional breakdowns for the time they actually fit, like a death in the family or whatever. Then, it's fine if you have a moment of sad madness, who wouldn't understand?
