Author Topic: Dad reads out his daughter's hate letter on youtube and shoots her laptop.  (Read 8950 times)

The means were rather crude, but I agree with Count.  He taught her a valuable lesson.  Her life may have been ruined if he didn't do it.  I just hope in the future they'll be laughing about it together over Thanksgiving dinner or if her dad gives the shot laptop to her as a Christmas present some year for stuffs n' giggles.

At 15 that bitch is already lost. She'll hate him for this forever and she'll probably end up pregnant with some black child to spite her father.

lol@ all of you who thinks that was "her" laptop.

thats not how it works. even if she had a job and paid for it herself. it wouldnt be hers.

This is why you don't add your parents on Facebook in the first place if you're going to say stuff about them.

Or just dont get one in the first place.

Children are legally property, yeah we get it. You've told us before.

Not like speculations tell the future or anything...

Apparently, she is already over it.

I'll just sit here with my fantastic father, one of my best friends, who was born in the deep South, who had a life like this, and who would never teach me to shoot down peoples' opinions (or shoot down things they paid for).

The child screwed up, yeah. But everything about how the father reacted is just childish.

I hope with every fiber of my being that gun-toting, smoking morons like this die off soon.

For those that wondered, commented, criticized, and just in general wanted to know:
My daughter came through it fine.

Yes, she's in trouble, and yes she's grounded, but that doesn't mean every moment of her life has to be miserable. She's going to come to terms with the changes that will be present for a while; no TV privileges, no Internet, etc.

In the meantime, once the initial anger passed, she sat with me reviewing some of the comments that have come in via Facebook and YouTube. One person even suggested collecting the shell casings and auctioning them on eBay. I said I’d do it if it would help contribute to her college fund! When I told her about it, she thought a minute, got a funny calculating expression on her face and said, “in that case you should shoot my phone too. We can use more bullets and I’ll go half-sies with ya on it! It’s not like I’m going to need it any time soon. And I can use the money we get to buy a new one.”

While the whole point of this story isn’t funny, what is funny to me is how weak some people out there think kids are. Our kids are as strong as we help them to be. My daughter took a horrible day in her life, had her crying fit, then got over it, accepted her punishment, and hasn’t let it (or people’s comments) destroy her strength. I don’t get any credit for that. She’s strong and able to overcome almost anything life throws at her.

Since this unsuspectingly threw her into the limelight much more strongly than either of us intended, I asked her if she wanted to make her own response video, and told her I’d let her do it if she wanted to. She doesn’t like being in front of the camera, so she declined, but I’ve told her if she wants to write a response or post a video response, I’d be OK with it. It’s only fair considering the viral nature of the whole thing. So far she’s not really interested. Quite frankly it seems she’s gotten bored of it much faster than the general public has. If that changes I’ll post it here.

You:


How about reading the loving topic?

read the response and watched the video before posting, lol.
doesn't change what I'm saying
it's still childish as forget
and he's a smoker, which is already handicapped.

If his daughter doesn't listen to him, what else is there to do? You know, everyone has a piss-off-meter. He has it low.

Seeing spoiled kids react to how extreme the father was just makes me realize how hardcore my parents were. My mom did thinks 10x harsher than that on a good day. And I was like perfect my only problem was being lazy and unmotivated ):

You need to read harder then, cause you don't understand.

The reason she didn't listen is probably that he's an ass about it in the first place.
I've never had a reason to disobey my father, because he's reasonable and communicative. We get stuff done together.
He's a smoking, gun-toting redneck. I can only assume he's like all of the others I've met, lol. (I've been to Georgia and Virginia many times to visit my relatives there.)

Read the above. Some people don't understand what it's like to have an awesome dad.
