Yup, my gen x dad wouldn’t even let me take a walk on our street just to get some exercise and fresh air, because he thought I would be kidnapped and SA’d. Kidnapping has never even happened in our town before.
Meanwhile, teachers, cops, and even the fire chief were caught messing with minors or having CSAM on their computer. But I was “safe” at school! And “safe” at home with my abusive step mother. Gen x chud dads are really something else.
It really shouldn’t be like this and I think it did permanent damage to me, I’m like a skittish indoor cat now. Been trying to enjoy the outside more but I don’t think I’ll ever be at that level. My parents made me so anxious and nervous with their paranoia and worries.
