Understanding Fist Fights with Fathers: Is It Normal?
Getting into a fist fight with a parent, including a father, is generally not considered normal or healthy behavior. Conflicts and disagreements can arise in any relationship but they should ideally be resolved through communication and understanding rather than physical confrontation.
Not a Common Occurrence
Completely normal. Every son I know has wanted to get into a fist fight with their dad.
Abusive Situations
Not crazy normal but when I was 18 I got in a fist fight with my mother because she left bruises on my 16-year-old sister. She had temper issues and took it out on my sister. I already moved out but I let my sissy stay with me until she could move out on her own. It’s not the best idea even if he’s abusive. Maybe call CPS or move to somewhere else instead.
Healthy Relationships and God's Guidance
Absolutely NOT normal. Get help and remember the Alpha Dog died a long time ago. Yea it is written that ye love one another from a pure heart. Seek to live peaceably one with another.
First John 4:7-8 admonishes: “Beloved let us love one another for love is from God and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. The one who does not love does not know God for God is love. If ye ask God to show you His heart in His Word for others you will raise your standard and expectation of what you believe others deserve.”
No it is not normal to fight and you don’t deserve that. Talk to your minister, the elders of the church. Make noise until you are heard. God bless! A new better life awaits you!
Unavoidable Fights
I never knew my dad. I was doing ten years in prison way back when I was young. Upon entering a new institution I would ask other inmates who was the meanest, most feared prisoner from every ethnic and racial group. I would seek them out one at a time and fight and beat half to death each and every one. I was making a statement that I was not to be fucked with. I fought a particularly vicious older white guy. I lost gallons of blood and my hearing during our fight. He took almost as much as he gave. We were both in the prison hospital for weeks as they tried to save our lives. That’s when they discovered he was my biological father. So I would say sometimes it’s unavoidable.
In any case, physical altercations should be a last resort. Instead, consider seeking support from a trusted friend, family member, or professional to address the relationship dynamics. Open dialogue and conflict resolution strategies can often lead to better outcomes than physical altercations.
By seeking help, engaging in communication, and focusing on love and peace, you can find a path to healthier relationships and a brighter future. Remember, every relationship can be improved with the right approach and willingness to change.
