this really hit home. my dad was a marine and did some fucked up shit to us as kids. fortunetly he has calmed down now and is trying to make up for what he did. i think he realized that we would grow up and remember what he did for us. he had a rough childhood and thats what i don't understand. if you had it bad why would you go on to having children of your own and making it just as bad for them as it was for you? people make mistakes i know but they should fucking learn from them.
It really makes me happy that you were able to realize that parents should never treat kids like you were treated. Many parents who were abused as kids end up abusing their own children. You sound like a really good mom :)
Jill thanks for sharing such personal stuff. I'm sorry and it sucks that your Dad is such a hardass. I have some stories about mine. They are more like the stepfather story.
Jill first off, thank you for sharing your stories with us. It was very brave of you. Second, I am so sorry your father was so horrible to you and your family. He was very wrong for what he did to you, and you are better off without him hon.
OMG!! I am so sorry. There is a book called "Father Hunger" it explains how destructive relationships between fathers & daughters result in food and body-image disorders. As little girls all we want is our daddy to love us and when we are not loved, we continue the cycle by punishing and injuring ourselves. You are brave to share your story. Thank you!
Disregard my last comment about who you look like. It sounds like your dad has a lot of problems and unfortunately no one kept him from becoming a father and passing his issues on to his kids. You seem very strong but we are all human and it affects us and you are coping the best way that you can. I agree with elzl1018..."Keep opening up...it will set you free!"
Thanks for sharing those...I think its awesome that rather than purging your food, you are purging these hurtful memories...you're relieving yourself of them and trying to move on with your life in a more positive way! Keep opening up....it will set you free!
You're very brave for sharing these stories with us. I have the same kind of memories of my dad when he would flip out. You don't remember details, but you remember how it made you feel. Take care sweetie.
seeing a sibling getting hit is kind of worse than haveing your self hit (in my view) like my brother ...but my dad would not touch him now as he knows that my brother could do more damage than he could. thanks for sharing your stories x x x x
Thank-you for sharing your story with us my good friend. I know it must have difficult to do that. You are truly an amazing person and admire you a lot for your strength and determination and also for your ability to love others despite having a traumatic childhood. It's an honor for me to be your friend, thank-you so much.
Oh my gosh... I can relate to these stories... The only thing I can tell is with time and forgiveness things can change as hard as that may be to hear right now...
Jill thank you for telling us these stories...I hope your dad will come to realize the pain he has caused ... rather he does or not YOU survived it and I hope your brother does as well...what does not kill us can make us stronger in the end

Maybe your father is the reason why you over-react sometimes ... ?

Jill, I watch all your videos, but I don't always comment.
I admire you for telling your story. I know that it had to take a lot of courage and strength to do that.
I went through a very traumatic childhood, and also up until the age I was 18.
Hang in there, because you're amazing.

Is your sister still on speaking terms with your dad?

It is so sad how those things follow us all our lives...
And no matter how much time passes - the pain comes back whenever you go over it again in your head...
But I agree with fastinggurl - what doesn't kill us makes us stronger. You're probably a more empathic person because of this
