Sins Of A Father

Sins Of A Father is an animation about the fate of a father and the son who takes care of him. In the past, my father's harsh hand was terrifying, knowing that there was always a belt waiting for us at home, no matter what we did. The son's mourning and the father's developing Alzheimer's disease do not allow their relationship to calm down. But is it possible to be angry with someone who no longer remembers the harm they have done to you?

One thing that I have experienced with toxic families growing up is that we need to look at the parents and siblings as humans first and family later , I was born in a family where my mother cried about money for 30+ years and my father kept on wasting it on realestate ponzis , my mother never told me that my father was a fat liar and a gambling addict. I witnessed that first hand when he borrowed alot of money from me and wasted it on real estate ponzies , later he said I lost everything and its normal because you are my son and he can do whatever he wants with my money, my mother even agreed. At that time, I saw them as who they were as humans. My brother left the family a decade ago ,but he never told me what he witnessed what my parents were. Later, I told him that you knew all this for so long and that you never told me. He said, "I wanted you to be their caretaker, so I fked you up, no regrets ." My father was a liar and my brother was shark, I shd have been a shark from the beginning that's why I always tell people " Think of yourself first , your family can take care of themselves "

Whatever may have happened to you, don't turn away from them by cutting the link completely because you will be the one who will lose in the end. They are still your parents, you owe them respect by this simple fact even if it requires strength, resistance and patience in the face of hardships. Even in the face of mockery and bad behaviour in general that you have to face, prioritizing dialogue and the search for mutual understanding is always the solution to promote. Parents remain human with their flaws, no matter how heavy they may be. But they love their children. Their behaviour may make you doubt this, but it is not a pure reflection of what is in their heart. Also, it is possible to act badly despite one's original intentions, sincerely pure

7:08 was the most relatable scene to me, well at least the reaction to the question trying to downplay the trauma to avoid confrontation because bad memory + no accountability will never mix well. a lot of older parents simply cannot comprehend how the way they treated their children growing up affected how they treat them today. it's like you're connected but disconnected at the same time.

It's honestly crazy how accurate he depicts an overly strict and abusive father in this. From experience the shadow figure is truly the best depiction of a father disciplining / abusing their kid with a belt or fists. I can hardly remember my own fathers face, but imagine seeing him in this depiction as a child scared and trapped with nowhere to do but to accept it. I imagine if this would be how my own relationship with my father would be like if he were still alive today. The most I can take from my experience with him, is how to properly raise and discipline a child, like my grandfather raised me.

I also think that people misunderstand "forgiveness". You can forgive a bad father/mother, it doesn't mean he/she will be free of judgment, here in Earth or in the afterlife. The important thing is not to keep the resentment of what they did to you. Sometimes, it's better to forgive and never see again, than to keep the resentment and stay close. You are not obligated to aid someone who wronged you but you also must not keep the resentment.

[@artykhaan]

My father was very similar. He rarely hit, but was extremely harsh with his words, if only because I didn't keep my arms on the table during the meal. He was toxic as fuck. It was enough that he was not far from me for me to be unable to laugh or be happy, he stressed me out so much. It was the same for my mother, an immigrant who he didn't want let her study or even take language classes so that she would remain dependent on him. Then he got cancer. For 3 years it was even more horrible, but he finally died at 50 when I was 14, and it was a real liberation for my family. (sorry if my english is bad, I'm not english)

[@HommeAuCigare]

I was never really "hit" by my father, but constantly yelled at for mostly no reason, degraded my entire life. He never in 30 years said a kind word to me or told me he believed in me or that I have any talent at anything. I would fear every single evening when he would come home and start sh!t for no reason at all. All he cared for were his material possessions and his job/status. Left home after yet another stupid yelling at age 23. I thought me moving out would make him change, that he would gain some perspective, so when Covid hit I spent lockdown at his big house. How wrong was I. The same old screaming and toxicity was back. Was fired from my job and all he had for me were mean words about how incapable I am and how everything's my fault. My dad is responsible for 99% of my highly antisocial behavior, extreme self esteem and anxiety issues and my incapability of forming bonds with most people. He will never change so I can't forgive.

[@SHAMIIZEN]

[@mothemane9910]

My grandfather was a joke. A complete alcoholic and an abusive father/husband, who would constantly beat my grandma and my mother when they were younger. He died old with lung cancer from all of those cigarettes he used to smoke. When i went in his funeral, i said to my mother "good thing this asshole died." My mother told me to not feel like that, i asked how could she forgive such a person. She said: "Forgiving isn't the same as forgetting, it's understanding. I understand that he was also suffering his own way." That shit hit me pretty hard, and i hold no grudge against anyone anymore.

Dads should always lead by example. Hurting your children in anyway only teaches them to hurt others if you don’t get your ways. Something I think parents have a hard time understanding is that they aren’t just their children but actual people. The same respect you think you deserve should also be given to children bc they are your responsibility to take care of.

[@Ammut6]

This came at a great time. I just lost my father January 7th to ALS. It was pretty sudden and , if he knew of it, he didn't tell any of us about it. I'm not writing this because he was a bad father at al, just very absent. My parents split when I was around 3. My dad would only come over on holidays and birthdays. He had no car and no license so it was always up to my grandmother to drive us or to pick him up. After my grandmother passed away in 2015 (the day after my birthday) it was at that moment that I started to slowly spend more time with my dad than I had before. I also was spending less time with my mom, due to her being in a nursing home for the rest of her life an hour and a half away from me. This was special even though I didn't spend a huge amount of time seeing my dad, but it was enough to hang out and let him see my son a lot growing up. It sucked because even though the ALS was destroying him, he still wanted to see my son up until the day he died. I just couldn't bring myself to bring my five year old into the ICU and see his grandfather hooked up to all kinds of shit. He did get to facetime with him once though... There was a time when my mother lost her dad while she was in prison. Before anyone was able to tell her about it, she had been outside (one hour a day at the prison) and happened to look up and saw a face in the clouds. It was that night when she found out about him passing. So from then on we all had agreed to, if possible, tell each other from the otherside. I had reminded my dad a day before he passed if he remembered my moms story, he shook his head no. I then asked him if he would do the same thing for me and he said yes. I happened to want to take a quick hour break to go home, shower, eat, and head back to the ICU to sit with my dad for the rest of the night. SO I got up, talked to my dad (who at this time had had the same blank/unresponsive stare at the wall for the last 16 hours) and told him what I was going to go do and that I'd be back. I got home and put my phone on the charger. Not even half an hour had gone by when my sister tried calling me. Meanwhile my wife was in our sons bedroom putting him to sleep. And at that moment she, my wife, said that our son had rolled over to face her and said "mom grandpas dead". But she just reminded him that he was very sick and that, yes, he will probably die soon. And not even a minute later my sister called her and she rushed out to hand the phone to me. And it's at that moment when she told me that the hospital had just called her to let her know that he passed. I think my dad got the message.

[@kylerosenberg2508]

My father was emotionally abusive and neglectful when I was younger and would frequently forget my name due to his cerebral hemorage. He also had one hell of a temper. Hes now much older and he seems to have matured a great deal since then. Losing my half brother to heroin made him cherish the connections he still had and made him want to be a better father to me and his other son. Even though my brother never forgave him for being absent in his life, him and I have grown much closer over the years. Im really glad that I gave him a second chance and im really grateful that i managed to get the closure i needed.

A father is truly crucial in a child’s life and it’s sad knowing that some of you endured the opposite of their love.

[@anthonye9232]

My grandpa was like this towards my mom. Through her stories on him and how I witnessed him he seems just like this only in my time a bit less anger but more ego.

Back in childhood. My dad would always support me in different sports and school, especially in math. He would always ask math teacher to get 10 question problems and sit with me doing them.

[@trevorthompson6825]

This is so tough. I wasn't physically abused unless you count frequent spankings when I was younger, but the verbal abuse was terrible. As a kid dealing with then undiagnosed ADD and MDD (major depressive disorder), I struggled a lot with even basic things and was unmotivated, but he didn't see that, he only saw disregard and disrespect for him as the man of the house. Sometimes there were chores or things he asked me to do that I forgot, or things he asked me to do that I wanted to do later, rather than always dropping everything the minute he asked to go do what he said I needed to. The mistakes I made related to that sort of thing were met with a lot of anger, being called lazy, selfish, and disrespectful... and I think ironically, I struggle with the first two a lot today because they were the ways I coped with having no one "on my side". I tried to stand up to him and tell him he was being a tyrant, that the punishment never fit the crime, that he was unreasonably angry and quick to condemn me, but he wouldn't listen and always just went back to how he's the father and I need to respect his authority. Now as an adult who struggles to be independent and take initiative and control in my life, he wonders why. To this day he still claims he was never angry at me, he thinks his raised voice and other things are just that his emotions come across as more intense than they really are to other people. All kinds of mental gymnastics to say that he doesn't have anger issues or an obsessive need for control. He's gotten a lot better at acknowledging his mistakes... but it never feels all that heartfelt, more like he's apologizing about how his actions made me feel rather than acknowledging how he treated me was objectively wrong and remains, though improved, as part of his character today that he must resolve if we are to ever have much depth in our relationship as father and son, and to help me overcome our generational trauma so my kids don't suffer the same tyranny.

At first didn't say anything outside, afraid of getting in trouble. Biggest mistake of my life. Finally gained some confidence, people don't believe you. Maybe their childhood was very good, maybe they can't believe this weak old miser ever threatened the healthy young man. My dad never used a belt, but hit me on the head with wet towels and scared me with knives, rolling pins, and even a loaded gun once. He had hearing and drinking problems, making it feel impossible to explain the real situation. He was always right. I'm afraid of living my life, worried I will become the same to someone else. I see the tendencies. I'm jealous of everyone else outside, wondering what I missed out on during childhood, preventing me from being motivated and fun like them. Perhaps thinking negatively made it like this, but it's often all I can think about.

[@DeathlyTombstone]

My abusive father actually helped me more than harmed me, I had severe ADHD, ODD, and anger issues.
