I was very protective of my father and I didn't like these people who hung around outside all day. They creeped me out.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
They have had such a crazy life living with me as their dad. Not crazy but different from their friends.
My dad was a very violent, frightening and dangerous guy. Next to him, I was this vague kind of kid who walked around, as I still do, gathering impressions.
Last winter when I was coming home from church one Thursday evening, I saw somebody run around the house again. I told my father of that.
Sometimes I am so much my father's son that I give myself occasional creeps.
I'm naturally a protective person to those close to me.
My father was a very gregarious, very open guy. So every weekend, the house was full of people.
My father was a pedant and a bully who cared about nobody, and I was not to see him until I was eighteen.
To me I'm just a regular person going to the mall with friends, and now I'm in Forever 21 and I see this random group of girls staring at me and taking pictures. But now I usually have my dad, who is a really tall and intimidating person with me, so he's kind of my bodyguard.
I only saw my father twice a year. If I'd seen him all the time I'd probably have murdered him by now. He was very strict.
I grew up being terrified of my parents, particularly my father figures.
