Through The Living Glass

mom logic:

Mom: Oh my gosh [my name] you need to get off your freaking computer it's not good for you to be on it talking to your friends all the time

Me: *asks her what she wants me to be doing*

Mom: I don't know- go apply for a new job or learn something new or finish your college application or something just get off that computer

Mom: *walks away*

so she does realize that unless she wants me to read a bunch of outdated science books, I need a computer for all of those things, right?

dad logic:

*notices child is always depressed*

"just stop being sad. choose to be happy. these feelings are all a choice and you need to stop letting this affect everyone around you"

wow thank you father yk that was just what I needed was to be told that my bad feelings are an inconvenience to everyone and that my mental well-being is not a concern of yours I love you too

parents logic:

Say nasty and hurtful things about your kids while pretending like you're saying it behind said kids' backs even though you know full well your kids are in the next room and have no trouble hearing the conversation

and/or

complain to everyone around them about how awful their kids are without actually telling their kids what the problem is so they can fix it

*sighs*

anyway

happy father's day, y'all

I don't feel too great, if you couldn't tell

*hugs for all*
