Or your brand new girlfriend getting into it with her parents on your first day of being over at their house and meeting them, only for her to ask you in front of them if you think she's right.
Ahh horrifyingly embarrassing memories are fun.
The correct response to that is "I think we should break up."
"MY MOTHER BEATS ME MRS BALINO."
Yeh? You probably deserved it, Joey.
I've had a parent do this.
"I'm his friend, not yours. Plus you've never cleaned my room to see how messy I am."
I was grabbed and thrown out. Fair, it's your house, Olga.
Rip
That sounds like MƩxico.
(I'm mexican)
Basically the same thing except you guys have nicer beaches
Wyoming has nicer beaches than Jersey
This always gets me in trouble. Iām from Jersey. Then the friend gets mad at you
Haha either tell the mom "no", and make your friend look bad, or say "yes", and catch the heat too....try not to answer, and they'll fill in their own answer then proceed to argue with your friend.... decisions decisions
Exactly and moms real good to me too haha
Iām from Jersey and honestly this is too accurate
I've had that happen to me in Oklahoma
I read it in Tony Sopranoās voice and it became 10x funnier
Holy shit man. Didnt know it was a Jersey thing but that totally happens.
In junior high I was at a friend's house and she argued with her dad then we went into her room. About 60 seconds later he came tearing in and started beating on her, hitting her in the head and upper body. It was terrifying. I'm in my 40s and I still dwell on that moment.
Shit , it's scary..I hope she's doing well nowadays.
She had mental health issues, even back then. Her mother was institutionalized. I don't know what happened to her, but I doubt she is thriving.

Indeed
One time a dad was screaming at his 16 yo daughter in the kitchen while her friends were in her room. He was mad because she at the remaining strawberries that morning. He was screaming at the top of his lungs. Verbally abusive. Spitting mad. Lasted about a good 5 mins. The girl returned to her room and seen fear, disgust and shock on her friends faces. Thatās when I realized I didnāt live in a normal family.
Iām so sorry. Iāve skipped eating what I wanted quite a few times to give my kids food they wanted. I canāt imagine being mad my childā¦.ate š
Id be like, "Jesus Christ, they are eating something beyond mac and cheese and pizza, kid gets a gold star!"
Maybe they were magical strawberries that he paid thousands of dollars for from a mysterious street vendor with the understanding that he would never come across the opportunity again in his lifetime.
Lol right. Sometimes there is a major overreaction. Idk why that happens
Sometimes that happens because other things are going on in the background, maybe tension and anger were building for a while, and just explode all at once.
It's part of the cycle of abuse, and a sign of unhealthy coping mechanisms. Be on the lookout for "sugaring up" right after that. Love bombing too. Feeling like you're walking on eggshells right before that. Classic signs.
I remember when I realized it too. Reading from a story in college writing class about my Dad teaching me to swim. They were all staring at me in shock. Itās not a fun way to realize it, in front of friends or strangers. Sorry you found out that way too šø
I get told this whenever Iām in a relationship, because In a relationship your partner will do nice things like buy you food, or maybe a gift
In my family thatās not normal, if someone buys you something even if itās not verbally said youāre now in debt. I think itās because my grandpa spent years in prison, so that behavior kind of passed down to my family
But itās a weird thing, someone gives you something and you donāt pay them back a few days later and theyāre acting different, and ignoring you.
Itās kind of crazy how these things are normal to you when you grow up in a home that way
Do you find yourself doing this too because you grew up that way?
Yeah only towards my family though, you have to be selfish in my family.
But Iām not selfish towards my Friends, mom or my brother
I asked because itās hard to break family ātraditions.ā Iām glad youāre able to be yourself with friends, mom and brother. šø My family tradition is alcoholism. Drink when happy, sad, angry, because itās Tuesday. I became an alcoholic for years, but my boyfriend, now husband, helped me stop. Sober for seven years now.
Itās definitely hard, you can be caught up with emotions, and anger towards people which I try to never have, Iām not an angry person in general but seeing how bad your family treats you can get you angry sometimes lol
I usually just be alone, and donāt talk to people, and as far as acting the same way I know itās not how a person should be
And I definitely understand the effects of addiction, Iām glad that you no longer drink, being sober is such a huge mile stone and great achievement. Sadly alcoholism still affects some of my family, and Iāve lost some family due to it.
ā¤ļø
I don't get it. What's so unusual about your dad teaching you to swim?
I was responding to a post about another person realizing her family life wasnāt normal, that her father freaking out in her wasnāt normal and he did it in front of her friends. Her friendsā reactions to her fatherās actions made her realize this. I realized when I read aloud a story of how my father taught me how to swim. He threw me in deep end of pool and let me struggle and sink.
I got the first part before I wrote the comment, only thing that was unclear was the pool thing. Thanks for explaining.

Abuse that bad can damage people beyond repair. What a tragedy.
Wonder what caused those mental health issues. That fucking bitch, who just hits their daughter?
š¢
My friend's sister was beaten in front of me, literally not full two meters from me. It was a very humiliating experience for both of us. I know I will remember that event to the grave too. Those fuckers of dads handing around trauma like it's nothing
And people will tell you to respect your parents no matter what
Moms do it too man. Mine fucking slammed me up against a wall while choking me out with one hand darth vader style because I wasn't fast enough tying my laces.
I was so young I didn't even come up to her waist.
Bro your mom has some anger issues. I sorta had the same experience but nothing physical. I was learning how to tie my shoes and I couldn't really get the hang of it and my dad started shouted at me as if that would make me learn faster.
Yeah she def does. I'm in counseling for it but she has refused counseling for herself.
Oh my, you just unlocked a memory for me. In high school I was over at a very good friends house hanging out. We were in her room and earlier she had mouthed off to her dad. He busted in the room and hit her multiple times with a belt or something. I was and still am horrified. Our friendship fell apart senior year but after what I saw that day, things about her made more sense. š
what the hell is going on
[removed]
I was one of her few friends at school. Most kids were afraid of her because she had an "episode" in elementary school where she became enraged and cut off the ponytail of the girl who sat in front of her. I doubt there were ever any criminal charges for the dad. I was just a kid and there were probably better responses than doing nothing. To this day I don't know what the best thing would have been to do. She had no other family, and she was ripe to be victimized and forgotten in the system.
There wasn't a "better" response, you were a kid, you shouldn't have to give one. The adults in her life failed her, not you.
How did you react? I mean...how does anyone react to that? @.@
Once the mother pointed at me and told he shoud be like me. I genuinely wanted to just teleport to my home
Literally same, I went to a friend's house once, while his mom had a fracture in her leg. I told her if she needed anything she could call me, and touched her feet as a sign of respect (is considered so in India). Then she told my dude that he should be like me, and I'm there like pls get me home pls
Interesting Iāve never heard of touching feet as a sign of respect, I love learning about new cultures
Inclusivity is a beautiful thing, if you wanna PM me pictures of your feet Iāll honor them the same way
sus
I had the same but with a friend's dad. My friend was into sports but pretty lazy and never put any effort into it, they were pretty well off and he wanted to be a quarterback so his dad got him a private trainer and stuff, but he didn't really have it. I was into sports and mainly wrestling kept me in really good shape, so whenever we were doing anything athletic, even just playing around in the pool, his dad would go on these rants about "don't you want to look like him? Don't you want to be able to throw people around like that?" and it always made me feel really awkward
Happy cake day btw
Thanks!
If my son's friend could teleport, I would want him to be like his friend too.
Not to make light of a bad situation, but isn't that the premise of most "Friend's mom" porn videos?
...asking for a friend, the same friend who told me this fact...
My best friend's dad pointed at me and asked bff why she couldn't be perfect like me. I was appalled he would think I was even remotely perfect when she worked WAY harder than I did. We were 14. We're still friends but I have a hard time being nice to him even 12 years after this incident.
I had that happen years ago. 20, in college, visiting a friend in Brooklyn, walked through the door to a family fight, my friend pretty much dropped everything and immediately joined the fight as if he'd been there the whole time (we were in school in Pennsylvania until that day, so I know he hadn't), and about 15 minutes later his mom pointed at me and asked why everyone couldn't be kind and quiet like me.
Within the hour we were eating eggplant Parm like nothing fucking happened
Yeah it was odd my freind hung up after a conversation with a freind who was over the phone and his dad snapped at him because he thought didnāt say bye when actually he did and then went on a rant about how the internet and cyber bullying is dangerous when he realized that he was at fault for snapping, it was very weird.
My friend Bret was infamous at that. Weād be hanging in his room playing Nintendo, listening to The Smiths(mellow) then he would just start in on his mom and all hell would break loose. He once drank an entire gallon of Prune juice just to spite her, cause she misread the label, causing him the worst gas Iāve ever seen
The look on Bretās face every time he farted was priceless.

I was playing on my PlayStation one day with a friend when my dad told me it was enough for that day and told me to turn it off.
I was busy on a mission and played a little longer, so my dad came back with scissors, unplugged it and cut the wire.
I think this was the face my friend made that day.
Wow, this reminds me of a similar memory...only it eas an N64 and he handed me the pieces after sledgehammering it.
Guess waking him up by having fun late at night was a bad idea. But then again, so was eating, talking, or doing anything besides hw or dishes.
Why do people like this even have children?
Having fun? Nah. Emotional trauma
I mean, therapy since 13 has helped. But yeah, one has to wonder. Lol
Youāre right, some people definitely shouldnāt have kids.
My mother wasnāt better, Iām 39 and still insecure and constantly looking for validation. I think my father actually wanted a child, but my mother regrets ever getting me, Iām sure of that.
I'm sorry. Even if we don't do the kids route, we'll be able to treat others right.
You're not alone. I'm 35 and you could basically be describing me, except switch mother/father.
Any other groups you're in? Got no $ but can offer friendship. :p.
Iām not in any groups, but Iām seeing a psychologist 2 times a month.
Good start! Lol i meant on reddit, but totally fair given the context. I'll add you as a friend here.
Hope he remembers that when he's on life support.
Thatās really funny 𤣠Canāt believe didnāt get more upvotes.
I can assure you that he wouldn't remember it even if he were shown video evidence of it right now.

And mine think I'm terrible for turning it off after giving them ample warning to get to a saved spot. I didn't have to do it very many times.
This comment made me spit my water through my nose!!
Did you get revenge?
He over reacted, you should have listened the first time.
"Ohhh shit you done fucked up son" Me, to my friend getting ripped apart by his parents
Wait what??
Shoot, I used to work for a friend of mine's parents. Sometimes I would be at the parents house with my friend and he and his parents would get into the crazy Jerry Springger-esque screaming matches, then like 10 minutes later they would be chatting happily like nothing even happened. If I fought like that with someone, I wouldn't speak to them for days... I imagine I must have looked just like this dog every time it happened.
In like 10th grade, I was at a bfās house and their dad started tearing into his older sister about an algebra test. She panicked and said that everyone had done poorly on the test, which he didnāt believe. Then she points to me and says I also failed; I agreed and said I flunked and was retaking it, which made the dad calm down since they knew I got pretty good grades. The sister thanked me for lying for her, since she knew Iād actually done rather well on the test.
I heard that dad scream at all his kids aggressively on many occasions. It made everyone feel humiliated and never accomplished anything.
Good on you for covering up for her.
Hahaha lol. Damn I missed my childhood.
Sorry to literally all of my friends for my dad. I know he's a scary mfer.
As soon as he's angry, which can be about anything and go back decades because something made him think of it. Then, it's a total rage meltdown, then he'll slam things and leave, then he'll come back about an hour later and just repeat near verbatim what he's already said. You'd hide the first 30 minutes he got home doing chores or something outside so you could listen if he was mad at work, 'Cause he couldn't take any of it out there.
But once I was a teen I didn't get hit really except when I was acting as the oldest trying to help my siblings. One time he was running up the stairs and I latched onto his ankle tripping him - never seen such a dark face in my life. I'd never "hit him back" before like that. So I wrappped around his legs and told him if he hit my sister I'd have the police here and get rid of him myself - it like snapped him out of it, he just started to cry. I can't describe that moment in my life quite well enough.
So it was just a lot of enduring the screaming and weird guilt tripping (aka attack, say 'I'm not an asshole you all treat me like an asshole well then I'll be an asshole), yelling, 'I do everything for this family and no one loves me or cares about me' through tears, leave to get away an hour or two, return and start from step one for 2 - 3 days.) Really embarrassing when your friends are around, especially because the next time he'd see them he'd be weirdly 'upstanding' / 'polite' and act like I was embarrassing him by twitching there awkwardly while they talked and he praised them.
I have had these exact same situations with my mother. We must be twins.ššš¤·šæāāļø
Parent-induced trauma team unite.
But more seriously, I'm sorry you dealt with that. It was such a negative thing for me personally.

Yeah, it is tough, even after we leave. Personally, I'm just glad I had the presence of mind to ske-daddle.
Good on you defending your siblings man.
How's your dad these days?
As I was reading this I was increasingly going oh wow this is kinda like my dadā¦..increasingly more like my dad, eh a tiny step back a bit nice, and straight back into the ringer. Honestly while this is all familiar to me, the thing that kinda hit the closest was the way he acted around ur friends, being polite and cool and stuff, chill. Heās turned around a bit now for literally my last two years ever at home, but only because my brother is gone and my mom died and those were the people he hated more I guess, so now heās just overall less angry of a person, and Iām not home a lot so itās easy to escape the few times he is mad
I will admit the defending big sibling energy you had is pretty badass, hell I even had a shiver down my spine there for a second
I have low wifi so all I see is:
Dog - Something went wrong
Very fitting
This made me laugh soooo true. Or when your friends wife and him have a full blast argument in front of you lol
Lmao. I used to have this friend when I was like 20 and he was 19, and his Mom would call my house and Iād answer and sheād sound so sweet and be like āHi PHM, how are you? Can I please speak to Nick?ā And Iād pass the phone over and all of a sudden after like 3 seconds I could literally hear her screaming āGET A JOB!!#!#!#!!#!!#!#!#!#lā from the receiver šš¤£

When I was in high school, my cousin and I went to a concert together. When we got back to my cousin's house, my uncle started yelling at her about missing curfew. Then my cousin started yelling about how she was moving out and she was going to her room to pack right now. I was sitting on the couch in the living room, unsure what to do. I was supposed to spend the night so I couldn't just leave. Eventually, my aunt had a talk with both of them and calmed them down. It was really awkward for me though and I'm sure I looked just like this dog.
I had a friend who would get into arguments with his family when we visited just because we were there.
Once, a friend went to hang out with him, and my friend asked him not to get into arguments with his family because it was awkward, to the point where the guy was like "Okay, fine I get it. I won't do it.
Before my other friend went in, this jackass (the one who lived there) goes in, and after a few seconds he comes out, laughing his ass off, with his younger sister trailing behind him, yelling "You're a jerk, why don't you grow up already?!"
I love that jackass, but seriously, super awkward.

Did one of your friends do that
This is very weirdly specific... Also don't leave us hanging on the Sonic stuff, come on send a link
Also when your friend shouts or is being rude to their parents
My elementary school friend when my mom started yelling at me after my FRIEND broke a bowl
If only shouting... I'm old and I come from tough times š
Well hitting is only for when no guests are around, you cannot tarnish your good reputation after all
Poor floof looks worried as hell.
I swear any time this happens the parents are trying to put on a show to be like āya, thatās right, Iām a strict parentā š
When your older it becomes funny
One time I went over to a friend's house as a kid and his mom started slapping him for raiding the pantry so hard he was bouncing on the sofa like it was a bouncy castle of pain.
Have you ever been at your friends house and they hit them? I went on a weekend camping trip in the 4th grade with my buddy and heard him crying when I woke up, went down to see him (camper with upper back beds) just as his dad slapped him with his forehand bigtime. I swear I thought it was going to knock him out but I suppose he was used to it.
Oo whats that on my finger nail? Its just so interesting and Iāve completely forgotten about the shouting over there. Oh itās stopped? Haha i didnāt even notice my finger nail was just so entertaining haha awkward laugh haha

What is that poor dog so alarmed by?
His friend on the verge of being beaten obviously.
So you would just sat there awkwardly on your phone and pretend to not know anything because you're too afraid to talk to them lol
Back before cells it made sleepovers awkward. Because after it you wanted to call your parent to come get you but to afraid to ask to use the phone that mostly was in a room the parent was in.
I just stopped having people over
Reminds me when me and a group of friends took a road trip to Michigan to drop off one of our friends that had been staying with us. We spent the night at his parents before going back since it was getting late, and that early morning, his parents burst in his room, immediately yelling at him for not doing chores, while his dad stuck his cane right into his face.
I had somewhat strict and disciplinary parents myself and I got beat with a belt growing up, but damn that was some scary hostile shit right there.
A big F you to all parents who play this card. Grow up. Signed 41yr old who looks back at her mom pulling this and think how poorly my mom behaved.
My best friendās dad would take her to his office outside to yell at her / have words with her. My exhusband ( while we were first dating) his dad would do the same thing. I finally asked why, and both of their moms said they noticed how bad it freaked me out so they made a point not to do it in front of me. I came from a very abusive home, they knew this. So they protected me from the yelling when I was with them
Joke's on you, I don't go to my friend''s house.

I was once at my friends house when her dad told her their dog is sick and might have to be put down. I can still remember his voice shaking, trying to hold in tears.
Awwwwww that's totally different.
Hope the dog was okay?
Yes! He lived for about 10 years more.
That's good! I had to put my best buddy down last year after 17 years together. Still gets me choked up.
Aw sorry for your loss, I bet it was a great life for him, being your dog.

So true bro, my friends parents started literally screaming after he lied about eating chicken nuggets at 29 years old
I used to laugh to try to relieve tension but it just made things worse.
I was at a sleepover and my friend and we got caught up on the roof of our school. Some old man followed us back to her house and told on us. Her mom started screaming at her and when she was done she looked at me and said "now you can go home and tell your mom what you did". Holy crap I knew she would call my mom as soon as I left.
Did she end up calling your mom?
She did. I only got grounded.
or another couple
Is it racist to say I only see this happen in a white home where the kid yells at the parents instead. Cause those jokes are true.

My mom used to beat the shit out of my brother and I so it didn't phase me when friends parents started in on them with yelling or whatnot. Part of life type shit.
The parents would be embarrassed and I could only laugh, like, bish!!! You're asking me to go home to get my ass beat bc you don't want me to see you angrily whisper at your kid. No thank you.
Was at a friend's house and at some point the dad started yelling at my friend in English (this happened in Denmark and I'm Danish), who probably thought I didn't understand what he was saying. I did. It was super awkward. I just sat there and had to pretend not to understand anything.

If you're a really good friend, you get yelled at too lol
Went to a friends house during middle school to spend the night, like 7th grade. Snuck out at night with him around midnight to walk down the road to a buddies and when we returned his dad was waiting for us. He B-lined straight towards my friend and slapped the shit out of him. Was the most uncomfortable Iāve ever been and still remember that clear as day.

When I was younger, I was at a friends house watching a movie, and he warned me something he knew I was scared of was coming up in the movie. His dad stopped the movie, went into the kitchen with my friend, and absolutely laid into him for the next half an hour. We never finished the movie.

Even worse is if theyāre parents start shouting at eachover
I tried to calm down the situation one time and her mother started to shout at me as well!
I have an example where the person screaming at their kid happened in my house not theirs. Years ago my ex was over, we were playing a game that had just released that day. In the after noon he checked his phone, and his mood changed from happy to kinda grumpy, but went back to gaming so I forgot about it. Hours later his mother comes storming into the house and starts screaming very loudly at him in the hallway because he hadnāt answered his phone. Turns out he was meant to go home and babysit his 12 year old brother while she went to see a movie by herself.
Yeaaaah. Iāve been on that awkward side and in the side being yelled at smh
The audio version is so much better to gauge/visualize the dogs concern/fear.
My ex's dad cheated on her mom, and he told my ex that while I was sitting next to her. I'm normally good with awkward situations but this... I wanted to gouge my eyes out crack my skull open like a coconut
More than once was I in this kind of situation.. Also the parents would then ask me to stay for dinner and made me eat twice as much as I couldš
I was always confused why my friends parents were so chill and there was no tention around, and then i went back home to Vietnam and try to survive another night with both of my parents in the same house.
Was at a friends house in high school once and him and his dad got into a fist fight behind me while I was on their computer. I just minded my business and kept clicking. He eventually sat back down with a ripped shirt and red face like nothing happened.
Well, I saw this a while ago with sound and I can assure everyone that it is 10x funnier.
What is the protocol here ?
When I was young I had a friend that wanted to wear long soccer socks before we went out side and the mom got in a big argument with him about how it was too hot outside and there was a lot of crying, i was just sitting there awkwardly the whole time, it ended up with me having to go home and not being able to hang out, š

I was camping with a friend and his family. The father had a tense argument with him and I was sitting their with a beer. We were 15 and he gave us one (it was legal). He left to calm down and I was there and had no clue what to do. In that situation you can't just leave.

And then they wonder why you never invite your friends over and eventually lose all of them
so true, I have a very troublesome friend who is always yelling at him to stop what ever he is doing.

I still remember the look on my friends face when my Mom yelled at both of use like she usually does with me and my brothers. It takes an outside perspective to make you realize what isn't normal.
BEAT THE PARENTS
Ah yes, that was the beginning of the end of a friendship. I had a sleepover at a friendās house and suddenly his dad started screaming at him and his brother for being disrespectful to their mother in some form, I donāt even remember what it was that they did. Their dad later apologised to me but not long after their parents separated and my friendās dad became aggressive towards him. He sent me pictures of his room in shambles and his bleeding finger after his dad flew into a rage. I offered him help but he stayed there and our friendship faded. Itās weird how you can be really close friends with someone for over a decade and then suddenly that friendship is overā¦
That has to be one of the worst and cringiest situations for a child. I know that feel, bro
Went over to a friend's house, apparently he wasn't supposed to have anyone over because he was grounded. She starts screaming at him, he shoves her, she starts screaming at me to get the fuck out of the house.
Thing is to get in we walked though a door in the garage. When I went back that way the door was locked and there seemed to be no way to unlock it. I say there for about ten minutes before I knocked and asked for her to unlock it and let me go.
Thatās why I always went to my friends house instead
Shooting*
I'm laughing my ass of thanks u/Late-Ship-936
This but when they're getting yelled at in a language that you don't speak.
That dog has seen and heard some shit. It needs to go into Witness Protection
Haha did.

I was in my early 20s and went over to a friendās house. My friend was a couple years older than me. His dad absolutely berated him in front of me, and if I had driven separately, I would have left because it was so awkward and painful to watch. No surprise, dudeās dad was a police officer.
Itās all fun n games till your friend tryās to bring you into it
Fact
My father told me that when he was at his friend's house (I think in the 1970s) he once saw him get a whooping, like the parents didn't care at all that my father was seeing this happen. He saw what was going on and he was glad his parents where not like that to him.
Video has no sound
I would call my dad to come pick me up so fast!
I will be acting like it is a telenovela
If you know you know i
The funniest instance I ever had of this was when my Islamic friend in high-school lied to me saying his parents were ok with him going with me somewhere but in reality they told him to clean their garage first and when we got back his mother was disciplining him in English while he's trying to talk to her in Arabic, it took every ounce of focus and will power I could muster not to burst out laughing.
A friend was always getting yelled at. One day there was a couple of us over and his patents got him a rug for the floor. They were helping put it down and he started yelling at them.
A distant memory sadly
Lol
A friend and I went to a sleepover for a girl who was new to my middle school. We didnāt know the girl super well, but she was outspoken and pretty funny in class.
We get to her house and within twenty minutes, this girl is screaming at her parents for literally no reason. Her parents just had the most tired and defeated looks on their faces. She screams for a couple minutes and then turns to us and continues chatting like nothing happened.
The entire time I was there, she would find the smallest thing to get upset at and just spew this horrible verbal bile at her poor mom and dad. At one point she threw her phone at her dad, hit him in the face, and then screamed at him some more because the screen got cracked. I think about that family a lot.
This entire thread is giving me a knot in my stomach. I'm so sorry you all had to deal with shitty parents and parents of friends. I truly hope you're doing better these days and are far away from those monstrous creatures.

this issoo relatable
This dog is literally the one on the subreddit thumbnail
And then you just kinda stand there terrified to ask for a glass of water
I was the one getting yelled at
LMAO simply at someone recognizing this situation. Bravo
Absolutely painful how often this happens
This is soo true
Even weirder when you hear your friend getting whipped the shit out of in the next room
Havenāt seen this meme since 1999
”Te dije que no lo invitaras! Y solo los miras como:
Just happened to me this weekend, but it was his wife š³š«£
this is why you wait in their room

Like what are you supposed to do?!

I went to my buddies house one time and his mom greeted me and hugged me. Then asked "how was the trip up to South Carolina? Did you enjoy the show?" And I responded ded with: "what show?" I was then asked to leave. I had to eat my tacos in my car. Apparently my buddy had drove up to SC to see this chick he met online, and told him mom that me and him were going to a show. I told him later he has to include me in the details when he adds me into a lie
Always made me wonder how their parents treated them when they didnāt have friends around.
Someone just yelled at me. I didnāt care for it.
Was chilling with my partner on my comp. My dad came in and started screaming about there being water on the floor (from her shoes because I got to say take ur shoes off because water).
They have trauma regarding confrontation and now can't be in the same area as my dad without having a panic attack. Hurts me every time
I love to see Weird Herold gettin a beating.
I was having a sleepover with one of my friends while his dad was talking to someone about his brothers mental issues, very loudly. Was a little awkward.
i wanna pet the doggy
They be yelling at me too
Don't yell at yer kids man
Had this happen one time Friends mom went off on all the kids for possibly smoking, and smoking HER cigarettes. Not sure if she realized I was there because I was hiding behind a door and the wall for a good hour.....maybe I was just an awkward 13 year old.
The dog is likeā¦āWhat the Fuckā¦Is going on! So funny.
You mean when your friends start yelling at their parents is my experience lol
ššš
My best friends mom would always do this when I was over. My friends mom was a helicopter parent to the EXTREME. My best friend had a lot of issues because of it. I started yelling back at her mom anytime she would yell at her when I was there. It got so bad her mom befriended one of our friends to like being best friends and talking even in the early morning hours. We were 13 at the time and her mom was in her late 30s- early 40s. One day my best friend and I were told by this friend that my best friends mom had bought her plan-B she was 15 at the time. This woman did it. Just crazy to me or is this normal? I vote crazy.
For some reason I read that as "SHOOTING"
Lol something happen me like that
This was the most wildly uncomfortable thing. I didnāt have the most perfect home life whatsoever, but my parents at least held it together when I had friends over. I meanā¦itās other peopleās children for fuckās sake. I was always horrified when my friendās parents screamed at them or each other while I was there.
When youāre at youāre white friends house and he starts stabbing his parents
Better then when there dad pulls off his beltā¦. While ur in the room
Feel ya there

Bang subscribe saya
Awkward :)
u/savevideo
Or when they yell at their parents.
u/savevideo
then they try to get you to support their side of the argument
This happened when I was at my girlās house once and I felt so awkward. Also her 9 year old sister smacked my butt while I was walking down the stairs. If the first thing wasnāt awkward, then the other thing was definitely.
If your friend starts an Argent with their parents whil they are there and your in their presence your just standing there like "I think imma just step outta here."
Can anyone tell what breed is the dog?
šš
Well! quite familiar!
I feel like itās unnecessary likeeee couldnt they wait until we leave lmao
Reading these stories, I'm lucky- I mean I had some shit go on, but not with my parent.
I yell at him too, so his mom thinks I'm a good influence.
That was me when my Grandma used āthe voiceā on my mom and it worked. My little brother was like, āOhhhh, mom is troubleā.
Awkwardā¦
See also- when you have your friends over and your parents start to yell at you
It was the big sister shouting on him for me
My friends will yell or backtalk, and I am always in shocked seeing them not die. And I have so much trouble eating at a friend's house too. I feel like I'm going to take too much food or something I do is going to make everyone mad at me. I'm not used to family who aren't screaming at each other all day. This is how some people are living? Without the constant fear that someone is about to die or get hurt? That if they mess up, they won't get slapped or screamed at or insulted? I get so scared of going back home. Some of my friends tell me that their parents are genuinely nice, and then they are. I don't know how to handle it.
Time to go dark
I was at my best friend's house back in like 1984, and she smarted off to her mom a little bit. Next thing I know, this psycho bitch is beating her ass with a belt and I'm sitting right next to her on the floor. I caught a couple collateral smacks. Fuck that bitch, I hope she's burning
This dog is a whole vibe, I swear. LOL
damn that's a nice wall
šæ (downvote me to hell)
Donāt think just because you have friends over that youāve got immunity from verbal admonishing if you cross me. š«”š«£
Or when you go to a friendās house for a game night and he and his partner have a very long and very loud fight in the next room over how heās picking on her in the game weāre playing. (He wasnāt by the way.)
My best friend has several siblings so this happens quite often. Iāll check back when I find out what Iām supposed to actually do during this
But the sound is what makes this video so real
that's awkward moment when I just wanted to be invincible
I was friends with this one kid in high school who was always a little quirky and offbeat. One day I went over to his house to play Halo after school, and we were chilling out and eating cheese balls. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, his dad (who was a high ranking officer in our local PD) busted in out of nowhere, ripped his belt off, and started beating the absolute shit out of this kid with the belt he wore beneath his gun belt. Apparently he had gotten in a fight with his younger brother earlier that day, and that was the way his dad handled it.
He really captures the stress and awkwardness you feel lol
It's worse when friends are at your house and your parents are shouting each other.
āI want to go home nowā
I had a friend in school whose parents would slap him and his brothers across the face when they were in trouble. Happened a few times while I was over & they acted like it was the most normal way to raise kids
What is the dog looking at that makes his eyes tense
I canāt stop watching this! Send help.
u/savevideo
"Like ye I'm Abit scared but I'm also interested" kind of look
Itās worse when the parent accidentally says something funny and you try not to laugh. My friendās dad threatened to āslap the slantā out of my friendās brotherās eyes. Yes, they were Asian.
I think it's more awkward when they shouting in a language you don't speak
thast my frient went i get mad by my mom
mfw i clog my friends toilet and hear his parents yellin at him for clogging it.
It time to leave homie
The only thing you can do is to join them
it's more like my friend yelling at her mom
Iāve had this happen to me when I was younger and I just stayed quiet and wanted to leave so bad
It be like 20 minutes of just standing there.
"I see your family is dysfunctional as well."
I hope it's not but please be aware of the signs of a stroke or TIAs in canines..it some times imitates the symptoms in humans..but I hope as you know your dog well and this behavior is normal for him and not sudden..God bless
I would always just act like im not there and put in earbuds but not have anything playing since i would feel awkward
You know I wish I was that friend but I was the one getting yelled at ā¦.
Not accept responsibility

My parents act like they practically own my friends sometimes lol.
Yeah I had a friend like that, him his sis and his mom usually shouted at one another, mom had no patience with her kids and did pretty much spoil them as well as far as I remember, there was a lot of yelling between them, parents divorced and dad just seemed like he was tired of The whole situation.... last thing I heard about this "friend" is that he either was dealing drugs and or takim them, probs both, so yeah... that was fun š
Anyone knows what kind of doggo he is ?
I know itās so wierd especially if they start lecturing them for hours and youāre just sitting there like ā¦ā¦.. fuck i hope someone rings the bell or something š
No thought itās my house and I donāt have any friends they just shout at me
Gonna run away like a freaking dog
This could have been an Oscar worthy scene if in a movie, even humans rarely display such range of emotions in a single scene .
why is this so true
AND YOUR FRIEND CAN FUCK OFF ANNOL
and they do it right in front of you. Just to hurt their children more.
Been there done that and stayed for the angry sex in the room over once it was all over.
Awwwwkweeeeeerrrd
My
A close friend of mine had a screaming match with her mom and sister while I was in her living room with another friend of ours. It was both terrifying and awkward.
It is the first few times but after that it becomes kind of hilarious we would constantly make fun of each other when are parents got passed off at us
Why do you use "they"
š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
When I was in elementary school I was staying the night with a buddy when he decided to mouth off to his mother and his father basically throttled him! That was the most awkward moment of my life!
That literally just happened yesterday-
u/savevideo
I shall call you Amazo!
Why does doggo look so terrified??
āWow thatās a nice wall I wonder what itās made ofšā
The person who gets shouted at is usually me
Imma just let myself out
Just laugh bro as loud as you can and point at your friend. It works every time
If you aren't laughing your ass off at them, are they really your friend?
I was at my friends house and his 3 year old brother climbed up onto his zip line and his mom got so pissed and almost called the fire department meanwhile I just stood there until she said sorry to me, she then left like nothing happened, my friends and I joke about it to this day
Reminds me of the time I went to a friend's house, got a concussion, and his parents just kept yelling at me for something I don't remember
Been a long time but I had one friend who's Mom would wait till I was there before she'd start to rag on him about everything. Mostly in Russian so I had no idea what was flying.
Could be some very intense compliments.
āYour room is so clean today!!ā
āThank you, mom! Rawrr!!ā
Russians roar? Noted.
They just fuck a bear
On a unicycle
Why you jealous?
In Russia, its normal for friends to get in the bath together.
And bath is vodka and we smoke cigar

lmao shit my mom did the exact same thing. in russian too.
In Russia that just means I love you
Avi?
no š
weird that we were still both on opposite sides of the same situation, just in different settings
Your mom was a narcissist basically
yeaaaaahhhhh woooooooooooo

On serious note, some parents love to do that with their child infront of their friends, to show how good they are in controlling their kids
If that was her reason it back fired massively. He'd usually respond with "Leave me alone woman" if you want me to do the stuff you say you need me to do ask when my friends aren't here
My mom was like that, it's reason I didn't grow up fonding guests coming over as it's an indication that "public shouting" and "other measures" would increase, still prefer to stay in my room rather than interacting with"guests".
Something about the Ukraine Iām sure
Actually she was kurgystanian. . . "In my contry we ear soup all de time because it healthy." " No ma you ate soup cus you couldn't afford pizza"
It's 'Ukraine' and not 'the Ukraine'
