Honestly did not expect to come to the comments to see a discourse on abusive parenting, but as someone who had a father who made all kinds of empty, and sometimes not so empty threats, from an east coast family, yeah this isn’t good lol.
If the guy had made a more overt joke, that’s one thing, IE “If the dog shits I’m grabbing you by the throat and stuffing your face in it everytime it happens until the shit starts smelling like roses” still kinda harsh but ends with enough of a clear line of a further exaggeration so that a distinction can be made. Also I see some people saying “oh come on the kid is clapping back” but the father ain’t laughing and you can hear nerves in that kids voice, the father doesn’t crack up, he just angrily storms off.
Lot of people in here need to do some soul searching – “oh that’s how my dad was” okay, you were a victim then lmao
