What's this type of parenting called and why is it so common now? It's worse than actual neglect because they actively try to keep their kids infantile.

this is unironically what happened to me. i was left completely alone at home every day.
i watched trash tv and anime and played vidya.
mom bought tons of snacks, chips and sweets, and i became obese at 8.
other kids made fun of me, i only made actual friends at 15 and they were all stoners. love them all, but only 1 guy out of hundreds has a good life now.

looking back now, it's just insane. i wasn't just neglected, but enabled in every possible vice a kid could have.
it was honestly an incredible waste.
i'm cute enough that i've had multiple gfs despite all of that.
my genetics are good enough that in the gym i benched 2 plates under 1 year.
i'm smart enough that i got higher than average score for a test to get into university.

then i restarted studying and the stress was killing me and my mother once again drowned me in sweeets and i lost it all. i'm obese again, i stopped studying and lifting again.
i know for a fact that my life will improve once my parents die. they've literally been sabotaging me my whole life.
i could take part of the blame for that after 18, but becoming obese at 8 is like making your child start smoking at 8. it destroyed my relationship with food completely.

it's all true. i lost weight at 19 and got a gf. i gained weight at 24 and we broke up.
i lost weight again at 26 and got a gf at 28. i gained weight again and we haven't broken up, but she treats me like shit.
my rep maxes were 100 for bench, 140 for squat and 180 for deadlifts. kilograms. at 26.
in the test for university, i was in the top 10%. this was also at 26. that was the best shape i've ever been in my life.
i am unironically genetically gifted.
at 24, the same day i broke up with my first gf, one of my best friends had a cardiac arrest and became a vegetable. another best friend started going out with my ex gf.
i was left completely alone and broken. so i started dieting and lifting and studying and got all those results.
then the lessons in university killed my routine, i was out of the house for more than 12 hours a day and everyday i came home to more sweets homemade by my mom.
i gained all the weight back, stopped studying and lifting.
it's like being addicted to smoking since childhood, every day you come home stressed and the house is filled with cigarettes.
they fucked me over so much it's insane, and it's all true. i take some of the blame, but ruining my life ever since i was 8 is all on them.
>>722816982
>imagine if instead of candy you'd gotten popped in the mouth. that's a real problem
if they also pushed me to study, i'd be fine.
in school i got pushed back 2 years. when i studied for the university test, i was top 10% and it was a test for tens of thousands of people.

Kind of a similar story to you. I used to play on a console in the living room as a kid. My mom sat there for years watching me play for hours every day, not going outside or doing sports or anything. A huge waste of human life. On top of that she was one of those parents who thinks their kid is the most talented person in the world. So I ended up with all of the expectations and none of the preparation to be successful. When I asked her about it years later, she told me that people have to find their own path in life. I take responsibility for my failures as an adult but man, developing a gaming addiction and fucking up my reward pathways while missing any opportunity to develop skills and socialize sure didn't make things easier in life.

Helicopter parenting is a form of neglect. If you don’t allow a kid in his most formative years to live life at all and keep him locked in a room half the day he isn’t at school you’re basically downright abusive.

Roblox is just custom map games, it's nothing special. Back in my day it was WoW.

You've probably got a sugar addiction and it will never go away. Best you can do is go cold turkey for a month from refined sweeteners (not just sugar but shit like corn syrup) which will be more painful than heroin withdrawal; then limit yourself to one treat a week. If you up the frequency anymore you'll go back to being dependent and have to start the whole process over.

>She told me that people have to find their own path in life.
There was a massive push during the 90s and 2000s to let kids decide their own future for themselves under the assumption that it would make them happier in life. Instead they were hit with gifted kid burnout, decision paralysis or they did liberal arts degrees. A lot of people will flounder without a stable direction to be pushed in and we are now seeing the result 20-30 years later with an entire generation of unemployable people.

Hate so say it but it's the only way. My parents were retarded fell for all the advertising.

Sounds like you need another coping mechanism. I don't know you personally so it's hard to recommend anything. Joining a health club that has a lot of spa like amenities helps me, only downside is it's more expensive than junk food.

Fuck off, I don't feel an ounce of pity for the selfish parents who are themselves to blame for their own misery when they gave birth to children without their consent... just because ''muh society'' told them to.

Anyways, video games are not to blame at all.
You can literally become rich by competing professionally. And I bet you there were many skilled gamers out there who had the talent to compete for millions but their asshole parents told them to get ''muh real job''

Not exactly, when I think of helicopter parents I think of overly cautious parents, which is one aspect.

I don't know how to answer these questions and anything I try to say for what I guess are justifications is just met with people acting like I am being overly critical.

The biggest hurdle there is that you have to do it A LOT before you can even have the chance to prove yourself, and even if you are one of the best, there's a chance you'll never catch on anyways. Things like esports, streaming, speedrunning etc are highly nepotistic and a lot of those people will do everything they can to prevent brand new names from overtaking the well known names. It's no different that hollywood, except it's a hell of a lot more pathetic because video games.

my mom is like this and my dad is himself a product of such parenting

my mom spent my entire childhood going to college and getting a postgrad so she could work in the government and make barely 6 figs and she acts like she's the coolest person ever. she is a loud, verbally and physically abusive woman with a family history of mental illness she has somehow clinically avoided. she worked for NOAA by the way. in charge of the big weather data distribution project, just retired recently. you can look her up.

i've spent my entire life basically as hasan piker's fucking dog except the shock collar is a 60+ year old woman who gaslights like a pro shitposter and screams until she is blue at a pitch that could break glass for basically any conceivable reason.
fuck it. why bother with anything? everything i've ever wanted out of life was too much too far too heavy too big too expensive ask your father but she melted through tens of thousands of dollars of my own inheritance forcing me to go to schools for degrees in subjects i didn't care about, trying to make me just like her.

dad pissed away his own inheritance at a young age on weed and guitars. of the million+ he had as a child, i got 30 grand when the bank finally closed the account. now, he is a very good dad and i love him despite his faults but sometimes i really wish he'd never met the bitch.

well good thing my younger sister has 2 kids already and is going for one more. my older sister is a dyke and I'm an autistic retard who doesn't want to have autistic kids to raise myself. says a good deal about your parenting skills when only your last child was successful enough to to live a normal life.

if women weren't allowed to work, their husbands would still be making enough to do that for them with the added benefit of keeping tabs on what the woman spends. my ex would regularly spend more money than she could afford and then be unable to pay her share of rent. women probably used to get bored being stay at home moms. now they have netflix and internet, which is all that some of them do when they get home from work anyway.

Women literally treat their work environments as an extension of high school, and they make the work culture just as toxic.

At some point you have to drop the victim mentality. What do you gain from revisiting your past again and again and again?

Realize that no one is coming to save you. All you can do is look at your life as it is right now, and start changing things that you actually have some control over. Set small goals every day; nothing major, just small goals like cleaning out your room, practice a subject for x minutes, walk x steps. Identify areas of your life that disgust you, and take SMALL steps to improve them every day. By completing these small goals you are going to get the dopamine needed to start digging yourself out of the hole.

How you got to this point does not matter in the slightest; you have to accept your current situation for what it is.

This thread is full of people that really need a friend right now at this point in their lives. The world gets worse and worse with each passing day from what it seems, and who knows when that will stop? But I can say this as someone else who's life is terrible and was doomed to a life of misery from the start, just like many of you.
There has to be something to the fact that literally all people, doing well or otherwise, are all unhappy, dissatisfied, and unmotivated. We, as a demographic, won't live like this forever. I believe that deeply instilled within us all, we have a spark of something that we refuse to extinguish, no matter how tempting it may be on our dark days. We can't explain it, but we just have this feeling that we should keep pressing on, just to see what happens.
That's hope.
Keep going, anons. Whether it feels like it or not, you're doing it. These are the dark ages right now, and there's nowhere to go but up. It may get worse, and it may not get better for a long time, but it will. Keep on truckin' my guys. We can't give in now, or all of this would have been for nothing.

Rich people have somehow convinced the general population that it’s ok to create a human that’s destined to slavery.
Don’t have kids. The best way to fight slavery is by not providing the rich people with further slaves.
You might think that you’re not a slave but prices of things have been artificially inflated to the point of guaranteeing that you work until you retire. There’s no escape.

Guess what, if you sell your home then you don't own it anymore. And you seem to be the one arguing in favor of owning homes.

>But the point of that article or tweet or whatever was that from the 50s to the 90s many Americans could easily afford a good house with a high school diploma and not only that but they could maintain an entire family too

So what? Just because they can and did does not somehow imply it's a good thing then or now.
There's a reason my tenants and the majority of the country rent versus own, and yes it's because of economics. They can't afford to own a home but they also shouldn't want to when its both cheaper to rent and also not your problem to fix when something breaks.

>I don't know why you were trying to argue against that
I'm not arguing against anything. I'm waiting for the opposite. Everyone is pretending like owning a home and having a wife by 30 is a good thing. I'd like someone to explain why because all I see are downsides compared to renting and just not being married.

My friend was actually raised like this, including his mother getting sick and dying in the background, and now he's a couple of months from being homeless and may even have a tumor himself. I showed sympathy when she died, but honestly, fuck his mother. She was a neglectful piece of shit who made her son so insanely ill-prepared for the world that he didn't even know the books at the library were free, he thought library cards were a monthly payment, I'm fucking serious.

Untrue. Houses can be found for decent prices for around 4-500k and much less if you're not retarded in your shopping. You could also buy cheap land and but a 75k factory built home, and pay to have it set on blocks and tiedowns instead of a traditional foundation.

The lesson is: abandon your parents, don't stay by their side when they are aging and dying, because you need to help that mega corporation train Indians until they can go six hours without doing something really stupid, so that you can finally get fired (official justification: inappropriate looks at women) and have to jerk off old fags on the street corner to pay the taxes on your studio apartment, otherwise the government will take it away from you because you don't own anything.

How is that line of thought supposed to convince me that buying a home today is a good idea.

They can't understand, no. I get hypoglycemic and strong gastritis if I don't eat every 2-3 hours. Even then, I managed the pain for years until I had to be out of the house for 12+ hours every day and came back home incredibly stressed, with my mother making me find different kinds of sweets every day.
This is why I explicitly talk about her sabotaging me. Since she's obese, she wants me to be so too and has done that to me ever since I was 8. Literally cursed for life.

Yep me.
It is said life is what you make of it, but I think your formative years shape what kind of person you will become and in those years life it's what your parents make of you for the most part. It's like you're a blank canvas and its your parents responsibility to paint something good.
That said my parents are the hellicopter types, overprotective. They put every single vaccine under the sun as soon as possible, even hep B "just in case". Videogame consoles all my life, I never left the house. Mom made me a sugar addict at 9 or 10 because I quote "I was too skinny", so she bought sugary sweets every single day until I was the mocked fat kid in school. My dad only taught me two things in life, how to ride a bicycle and how to shave, almost like he was filling a checklist of things he saw in movies. He checked out of teaching me how to drive though because the car was too important for him.
So naturally I became a fat, lazy guy that plays video games all day, can't drive, doesn't work, no gf, a nothing person. They're baffled.

When I was a child, whenever something went wrong, my mom went straight for the painkillers. My dad fucked just off completely.

I've never talked to my parents about this specifically, but I have to wonder how many of them reflect on their failed children and identify all of the things THEY did wrong for the child to end up that way. unless the child is developmentally disabled in some way, basically everything that they learn up until the age where they're old enough to be left at home alone is entirely the responsibility of the parent.

well women are women regardless of who they are. a woman will blame everyone but herself if she rear ends a car. my ex totaled my car when she rear ended somebody, and then blamed me because "the brakes didn't work" even though I never once had a problem with them.

mothers are no different. every woman is beautiful and perfect, so obviously her parenting was not a a relevant factor. it must have been the 8 year old's fault for making a mistake that he was never taught not to make.

most important thing is to document everything (i mean every little nagging health thing) while you are on active duty, if something is in your official health record, then it's much easier to make a claim, there are tons of resources online to give you best ways to apply, you can even pay people to do it for you, although i advise against that

bipedal flat feet automatically gives me 50%, it's all because when i first had a medical examination (at MEPS the entry processing before boot camp) the examining dr's assistant (a sheboon nurse) didn't properly document me, the dr literally said "you have mild flat feet but it's no problem, many have it with no issues," but the medical record literally says "feet: normal arch," before i left the service i was legit having foot problems, mainly because i was wearing steel toe boots 12 hours a day, the dr. said i have flat feet and documented as such, thus i have now incontrovertible evidence in my record that the service somehow caused me to get flat feet

you can gain flat feet but most cases are genetic, also a high percentage of people have mild flat feet with no problems

the real cheat code is any psychological claim, PTSD or depression is automatic 100% and payment is like $3300/mo, there are other benefits of being 100%, the best one is exemption from property tax in many states, yes that's right, you can own a $1.5M house and not pay anything in taxes while your neighbor pays $15-30k/year depending on the state

Passive neglect is not giving them proper attention or care
Active neglect is ensuring your kids are denied positive life experiences
I was also brought up this way, my mom fucked up with her first four kids since she married an alcoholic+junkie dude and didn't have any time to actually monitor them, all 4 of them are massive fuck ups because of drugs or gambling in their 40s since they got addicted to shit in their teens
Second husband was a fine dude, but a pushover that gave her the reigns with raising kids, she did the inverse for me and my sister, where she pretty much forced me to be a shutin from a young age and didn't let us go out much, while having her hands full with a side job and four delinquents.

this. and these worthless cuckolds will never admit the issue is them. some real synthetic man shit.

I grew up in an abusive family, no father, my mother being a massive bitch jumping from guy to guy, telling me I would never be anything so don't bother? I then went, learned a trade skill, and used that to fund an education anyway. I looked up various ways to accomplish my goals, and in the end used it to propel me forward, working overseas, saving money, married the woman I always wanted, and now have 2 kids with her. I save a 1000 a month in an account so I can pay for education stuff when they come of age. I'm 40, fit, and have carved out my own little niche, health wise in primed for another 30 years, my relationship with my wife is insanely healthy and I have healthy friendships with guys my age because I saught them out. we use videogames as an excuse to hang out at my house and socialize.

the retards in this thread fail because they are weak, they prioritize short term satisfaction and blame their mother instead of trying to change, because change takes effort, and long term planning. they are weak because they want to be weak.

I refuse to believe this isn't a made-up story. Not even the most obese reddit fag is this delusional.

i have everything i need. a job, video games, friends. yet over the years i've become bored of this lifestyle of work then play video games with friends. should i pursue "normal" things in life like marriage or keep living with this emptiness inside? keep in mind, doing anything like that will put a financial and mental strain but i guess it will "challenge" me and make life a bit more interesting. i'm just concerned that i don't "want" these things and by pursuing them i will bail and take a hit to my mental health.

man why am i asking this on v of all places....

how do i into job without college

if you try it at least you'd know you tried it
if you don't you won't even have that

>>722851765
but if i try i might end up with a divorce and paying child support. kinda don't want to try those things.

>>722851315
everything is empty if you do too much of it or if it becomes a routine, if something is giving you joy then embrace it, i have married friends with kids that are miserable, you would think that their children will give them extra meaning but it doesn't, sure they love their kids but it's not like they are magically more satisfied with life, also financial problems can be 10x worse with a family than solo

Would you rather such a person were out in society fucking up important work and raising even worse children?

Thank me for being a NEET. Now!

Every man has different aspirations, for lack of a better word, so with time you'll find what you want despite probably not being the best outcome. Just try it and you'll see.
I bet many anons here would kill you and get everything you have, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

At some point you become an adult capable of making your own decisions and can rationalize. You can't blame your parents for you being shit at life once you reach this point. This is reached in your early 20s btw. Stop coping people, start walking, lose weight, you can play video games but stop acting like you're stuck in the hole that you're in. Eat better, make positive decisions for yourself. Stop coping and knowingly being worthless. You're the only one in control of your life

He's asking "why they do it", not "do they do it".
The answer seems to be depraved destitution. Hence the original question, if they're that desperate for attention why don't they at least try something else that will alleviate that permanently instead of wasting energy on fleeting interactions with faceless strangers.

I've overheard a lot of kids in their teens talking about trolling online video games and it makes me cringe to hear it IRL.

Being comfortable with the situation isn't the worst thing to do. I feel like it is at least step 1, and a large hard step at that. In my experience, not even that valuable at face either, just necessary.
If one day you get a spark in you, to take further steps, I hope things improve for you by virtue of your own decisions.
I'll hope for you if you hope for me.
