Listen to your parents, even on pain of death!

You don't talk about them much.

[tntandgasoline]

No reason to.

[nobaybreezes.livejournal.com]

Well, I mean, they're a big part of your life.

[tntandgasoline]

Oh? How do you know, Lisa?

[nobaybreezes.livejournal.com]

Parents always play a big role - or at least their actions do. Even absent parents effect their children's lives in a huge way.

[h4ck3r-61rl.livejournal.com]

I listened to 'em. Sometimes.

[8fingerswhiskey.livejournal.com]

Wow, I'm surprised that came from you.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

That is idiotic.

[vengeful-virtue.livejournal.com]

On pain of death? That's some rather stern parenting.

[tntandgasoline]

Is that so? Who did you learn that from? Dr. Phil?

[tntandgasoline]

I did all the time, and look how I turned out!

[tntandgasoline]

Why?

[tntandgasoline]

Isn't it?

[nobaybreezes.livejournal.com]

Experience, actually.

[tntandgasoline]

Who said it came from them?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I just said so, didn't I?

[tntandgasoline]

One person's experience isn't the same as everybody's else.

[tntandgasoline]

I thought you did, and I thought I was agreeing with you.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Fine. Good.

Ugh, I hate agreeing with crazy people.

[nobaybreezes.livejournal.com]

I know that. But, in my experience of knowing people, their parents have had a large impact on their lives regardless of whether they were present or not.

[vengeful-virtue.livejournal.com]

Then who did it come from?

[8fingerswhiskey.livejournal.com]

Because usually, when that's said to you it means that someone actually kind of gave a shit about you.

[h4ck3r-61rl.livejournal.com]

Call me crazy, but I think you just might be considered a special case.
