The screenshot is a douban user sharing a friend's story:
"My friend told me his experience, from 9 to 16, seven years, his father beat him 98 times,
(1/n)
"...often leaving him black and blue, and red. Everytime after the beating, he would write it down on a notebook, first demanded by his father to help him "learn the lesson", but later, by choice. "I'll get back at him" he said, "sooner or later."
(2/n)
"...At 16 y/o, he fought back first time. When his father slapped him, he slapped back, twice. His father stopped beating him since.
My friend said to himself "My father used to beat me as I'm weak and dare not to fight back."
No, he's getting back at his father. (3/n)
"...He told his father "Now mom is gone, I have nothing to lose. The beating you used to give me, I'll give it back to you. Nice and slow. I'll control my punch, won't hurt you too bad each time. And for your living expense, I'll pay you."
(4/n)
"...He told me(the author) "I'm kind enough, he used to starve me and kick me out"
"The spring festival this year, my dad's drinking, so I slapped him, and roared at him, saying it's for your own good. After that, I made him write it down, to help him learn the lesson."
(5/n)
"...He continued, "My dad even wanted ME to get married and have kids. I told him, never, what kind of rubbish gene it is that you even wanna pass on? I'll end your bloodline forever, the tragedy ends at my generation."
(6/n)
"...he continued"Somebody try to persuade me, saying it's his first time to be a dad so he didn't know. Be tolerant. I said he's supposed to be a dad, not slave owner! I'm kind enough to feed him."
"My dad used to say why didn't I just come on the wall so you won't be born? (7/n)
"...I replied, yes, why? Why am I born to suffer? See, that's why I'll never have kids.
I told my dad, you better be healthy, otherwise I don't have the money to treat you. If you're lucky, you live, otherwise you die. This is something he used to say to me.
(8/n)
"...Now I said the same thing back, he can't take it, crying and sneezing. He sucks.
There was a cat on the street, whom I found and fed before. And he killed it. Now he wanted a dog, I told him not to. I won't kill the dog, but I will beat you. You don't deserve a dog."
(9/n)
"...(This is again the author summarizing)
I've seen this vicious cycle of domestic violence several times, in different groups of ppl that is. I really hope parents can treat their kids right, and respect them."
The end.
