      Actually, at 13 you're no longer a child in the US :P A minor, but not a child and therefore eligible to sign up on forums without parental consent.

      Unless you're younger, but that usually doesn't end well to use that argument. Children get eaten whilst served as a basket combo with fries and a 64 oz soda.

          You also seem to think that I was joking. I'm not entirely sure why.

              Ok, either you are very much a troll now or you need to be sat in the corner until you calm down.

              Either way, I'm exiting this conversation because it's no longer one.

                    And my father was an abusive alcoholic and I was raped as a teenager--I don't use those as an excuse for my actions, decisions and how I express myself. Quite a few of our members have shitty pasts, trying to use them as an excuse for bad behavior doesn't fly here.

                    Taking this at face value, rather than dismissing it as troll (which I am inclined to believe), you have one more chance to follow my previous directive (which you amusingly found "abusive"--if you honestly thought that was "abusive", this is probably not the forum for you, as you lack the reading comprehension and maturity level to interact with most of our members) before myself of another mod or admin bust out the banstick.

                      And I am sorry for your past, really, i am. But I still dont care about some "Banstick". I come from a harsh place. where people are bashed and murdered for drug money. People put wooden boards and bars over their windows. I was hanging out with the wrong people, and I did MANY things I regret. Thats probably why i "Am not mature". Violence has been engraved in me. I now am EXTREMLY hostile towards others, my "being a troll" is not my fault. I got with drug dealers and alcoholics. It was either, beat someone half to death, or get beaten half to death. Theropy does'nt work, its one big scam. I beat my brother every day. This I literally CANNOT help. I've been through ALOT of violence...

                        That's still not an excuse, I'm sad to say. Lose the attitude both here and in real life, kid. It's not going to help you at all and will just lead you to the deep end.

                          I was baptized as an Anglican when I was 10. I never was de-baptized...I just stopped going to church and stopped believing in Jesus (was kind of helpful that my family got over their Christian phase as well and my mom felt that sleeping in on Sundays was a better use of Sundays than going to church lol).

                          If you really need something to say that you're not part of that anymore, then do it for yourself. But at the end of the day, you either believe something or you don't.

                            You're right. It isn't your fault. It's your choice. And, in case you haven't been able to deduce, it's a bad choice.

                            You are not entitled to immunity just because of your claim about exposure to abusive people. If you can't be civil, in a social situation, you have no reason to be here. And, as such, are more than welcome to GTFO.

                            Your immaturity will only stand as a magnet for the REAL trolls that we have around here. That also, by the way, know how to behave properly.

                              People who don't give a s*** often end up intellectually and spiritually constipated.

                              Think of this forum as a home and family. Many of us get on really well together. Some don't. Some are a little wary - very much the same as you are with real family. That wariness could be through respect, fear or even because we're convinced the other person is completely out to lunch. But we do not beat each other up - physically or metaphorically - although there can be some very robust debates here.

                              And we do not storm in shouting, swearing and trying the old 'I'm harder than you are' routine. Because it doesn't work.

                              Remember - you know nothing about us. You know nothing of our history, our experiences, our beliefs. And until you do, cariad, the best thing for you is to pipe down a bit. Get to know us. If you want to learn then fine, ask questions. If you feel uneasy then use the pm system (which I know you have done already). If you want to join in on the forums then fine, but judge what you do and say first. The important thing about the forum is not to wade in and talk, but to listen first.

                              So I would strongly suggest you just step back, take a deep breath and give it another try.
