My dad was an evil-minded little dick, he used to delight in sadistically trying to break my confidence all through my childhood, finding fault with everything I did. For examp whenever I brought a plastic model kit home he'd sneer- "Huh, been wasting your money again, when are you going to grow up?"
Haha perhaps he'd have preferred me running round with the local street gang getting in trouble with the police instead of sitting quietly up in my room building models..
When he died of cancer 35 years ago I thought "Good riddance you little bastard!" and never bothered going to his funeral.
I still build models, I've got my eye on a neat 'Harlech Castle' down the model shop..
Yea and so the fuck what. My dad was a dick to me too. This doesn't even have to be about religion. If I had rebelled against my parents as a teen or pre teen I would have been kicked out of the house and homeless. Your advice is fucking horrible. Not every kid has the means to simply leave. You cant even make it just about the parents. The neighborhoods and societies they live in matter as well not only their parents.
If you think "one size fits all" in the context especially of a kid, you are a fucking idiot. Not everyone is you. Nobody is telling you to like your dad, but you are not in Die's situation so you need to refrain from oversimplifications of "just do it."
Die also lives in a more religious part of the world, not in America. Romania is far more conservative on average than the west. But even in America there are deeply red state parents even here, that if their kid came out, they would be kicked out on the streets with no means to survive.
