Am I the Asshole for Insulting my Dad

Am I the Asshole for Insulting my Dad **Am I the asshole for insulting my dad?** I’m 13, and ever since I was born, my dad has been *stuttering on purpose*. He doesn’t have a real stutter — I do. I’ve warned him **tons** of times over the years, but eventually I got pissed and said: > He said: > That made me feel sick. I asked him again to stop. He stopped for like four months… then started *again*. So I wrote him a note that said: > He stopped again… but eventually came right back with it. So I wrote him **another note**. Same message. **Same outcome**. Eventually, I got so done with it that I started dropping **vague comments**, saying stuff like: > He said: > So I snapped: > He was **SO pissed**. I mean raging. And in my head I was like, “Good. Maybe now you know what I’ve dealt with all these years.” A week passed. I got tired of dropping hints and just *told him straight up*. He wasn’t happy. But guess what? **He still didn’t stop.** Yesterday he did it again. I looked him dead in the eyes, and I swear… he had a small smile. Like he was *enjoying* it. No guilt. No care. Just that little smirk like it was some inside joke to him. So I wrote this and gave it to him: # 🔥 HOW NOT TO LOSE YOUR STUTTERING CHILD **Reality Check Section** (*Read this twice. Then again. Because you clearly don’t get it yet.*) Don’t ignore your child when they say: > Because when you don’t, you’re telling them your joke matters more than their dignity. Don’t ignore your child when they tell you **fifty times** to stop. It should only take **one**. Fifty? That’s not forgetfulness. That’s **abuse**. Don’t get mad at your child when they finally snap. If they roast your ego so bad you’re crying, guess what? That’s **YOUR** fault. You made it happen by ignoring their pain. **TIP:** It doesn’t matter if you were “just making fun” or “joking.” They don’t care. They just want you to **STOP**. Not after the 1000th time. Not when they finally break. But from the **first time** they said it hurt. Don’t even stutter on purpose in the first place. It kills your child’s self-trust. It makes every step toward confidence feel like a joke. You are breaking something they were trying *so hard* to build. Life with a stutter — no matter how major or minor — is hard enough. When you mock it, you’re not teasing. You’re shoving your child back down every time they try to stand up. ❌ Don’t be that parent. ⚠️ Scratch that — you already are. But you can stop. You can do better. You can be someone your stuttering child actually feels **safe** around. (Well… hopefully.) # ❌ FINAL WARNING ❌ You better wipe that damn smile off your face. Because I know you’re smiling right now. 😐 (You always are. It’s like a joke to you.) Well guess what? 👉 **YOU’RE the joke.** Because you didn’t stop. Not even after the second letter. 🛑 Save your sad little reply for yourself. I don’t want to hear it. I don’t want excuses. If this doesn’t work? Then thankfully… you lost your stuttering child. And now? Go stutter on purpose by yourself. 🎭 I was like did you read the e-mail, and was like "Yeah, but I didn't know we had a problem still"
