I don't know if endangering your children is a rule you should be allowed to set in your own home.

What? His dad is clearly rash, but he's hardly endangering his child.

This kind of reminds me of that viral video of a father shooting his daughters laptop or something.

Shooting off a gun in a house at a phone doesn't seem like the safest idea to me.

from reading the IM that rushy posted, your father seems to have similarities to that of my Mother concerning computers & video games. She never played them as a child or teenager because she was born in the 60's and that stuff wasn't around at the time. When the 90s strolled around the corner and she gave birth to me, she was reluctant to understand all the new info that came along with it, and to this day, she still doesn't know how to properly operate a computer nor how it works. She can barely work the hand-controller for the PS3 when she can use the remote for the T.V. just fine.

It feels like your father is scared to admit change in life, because it's all happening so fast and his reasons to back up his claim is to act more like him back in the 20th century when we didn't have all this technology around us.

who shoots something to make a point? It's obvious his dad cares, and I doubt someone would just shoot something over a small reason like this.

then again murrica so ????

is Riot's dad worried for a good reason?

ya so obviously riot has been playing games and not listening to his dad for a while, i doubt most people would shoot someone's phone after telling them to stop playing games just once

ya it's dumb and harsh but i mean it's like 'hey son i want u to do something more productive than playing ffr' so it's not as bad as u think it is

riot just move out and u can use your free time for whatever u want

While i'm pretty sure there were much better ways for your dad to display his distaste for your gaming habit, and get his point across.. I don't think we should hop on any bandwagon to demonize his father for this considering we only know one side of the story and not all of the facts. I doubt his dad would shoot his phone for no reason, and from the facts that I've seen posted in the thread, Riot has been disobeying his dads rules for a while.

It may be harsh, but my suggestion is that if you don't like the situation you're living under then you should probably work on finding a job and an apartment somewhere.

cant you play somewhere else or like not play if he's paying for a lot of your stuff like rent, tuition, whatevs (i mean it's the least u can do rite)

i know ur dad went to SrS measures but i'm assuming you're not paying for everything (internet, phone, utilities, food, rent, tuition.. do you pay for everything?) maybe the least you can do is respect some of AuThoriTy

cause i'm 100% sure this isn't the first time your dad asked you to stop playing games and shit
Yeah because clearly paying for your child entitles you to shoot at their things when you are throwing an irrational temper tantrum.

Some people are batshit crazy and don't know how to handle their anger/emotions. Ever hear of the classic abuser quote "You made me do it"?

then I'll throw the "it takes two to tango" idiom. I'm not trying to insist one side is at fault, I'm trying to say that it's kinda hard for me to side with Riot when all he did was slander his father in front of us. I'm sure he's just as at fault, even if his display wasn't as striking as his father's.

Really though if he wants to live with his father he should play by his father's rules, not his own. That's the price you pay when you live with your parents. He should probably move out if he doesn't enjoy his living conditions. I know I would move out.

But if he's not following rules, his dad has all the choice in the world how to deal with him. He's not a kid anymore.
