Under what circumstance is shooting your kid's stuff a reasoned or rational response to a disagreement?
it's never the right circumstance to shoot someone's stuff because you're mad at them
but what i was trying to say is riotpolice probably got on his dad's nerves for an extended amount of time and that he should prob move out on his own before things get worse, what's wrong with that lol
where in my posts do you see "ya his dad is 100% entitled to shoot ur stuff becus u played games", they both fucked up and im sayin it's come too far so he betta Move OuT
You act as if your post didn't have a tone of rationalization to it on riots dad's behalf in relation to how much he may or may not be contributing to the house which is completely irrelevant to what riots dad actually ended up doing because it was in no way justified

I'm right there with Dev, you should not be in that situation riotpolice.
Riopolice has actually done nothing wrong, that's the thing. Not obeying your parents' rules when you're 20 and you live with them, isn't doing something wrong when their rules don't revolve around a properly functioning household but revolve around trying to control you. 20 is a not a child, nor even borderline a child. It's 100% not acceptable for a parent of a 20 year old to be trying to change their kid's behaviour by treating them like they're 6. My mom tried to pull shit like that with me, and I gladly chose to lose financial support.
It's on the parents to not support their kids if, as adults, they are too much a burden on them. It's on the parents to set good examples and be able to talk reasonably with their GROWN children.
And then there's ALSO the fact that a firearm were discharged to make a point...ummm...yeah. Guess what? As an adult, you are free to not put up with this shit. Don't forget it.
Let's just keep in mind that riot is 20 years old (maybe early 20 now?), in college for an IS&T Degree and his dad is on his ass for being on the computer.
Can I just..
Riot isn't a bad-tempered person. He has always been pretty chill and I don't think I've ever seen him lose his temper in the idk fuckin 5 years I've known him. I consider myself to be his closest friend on FFR and I've heard all his horror stories. His parents are truly psycho, like objectively, so all the argumentation on their behalf can probably stop. What the hell are you supposed to do when your parents are throwing down rules to stay off the computer when being on the computer is in your line of study? He's told me that he has been scolded for being on the computer when he's not even playing games.
His parents are divorced and in opposite parts of the country, so there's trouble in paradise already. His dad hasn't re-married (which is usually an indicator of being a shitty human being, especially when you claim yourself to be a "real man"). His father obviously has some type of agenda against technology and is letting it show, drastically, with his 'look at how manly and dominant I am, I'm gonna shoot your possessions with a .22' attitude. At least get a real gun L0L
Regarding the, "Get a full time job and move out" argument, he's trying like the rest of us who are in college. Sure he could go out and get a job at a furniture store or something right now and probably afford a shitty one-bedroom apartment, but who wants that life? He's almost done with his associate's degree, and he can definitely go from there.. but I don't see him dropping everything and applying at KFC as a plausible outcome of this.
