have you ever been blamed unfairly ? how did you feel
Answers
Answer:
I get habitually blamed at home for things I did not do. Someone didn’t lock the door? Must have been me right? Except I never went out that day.
One time, my sister parked one of our uninsured cars onto the street, so that she can park her own car onto our driveway. She does not live in our own house, so the act of removing someone else’s property, from their own property, and putting it at risk of damage, just so that she can use that space for her own vehicle, is a blatant disregard of conduct, even among family members.
As she told no one, my father noticed this and automatically assumed I was responsible. As that had happened in the morning, I had not woken up and naturally was not aware of this turn of events.
So as you can imagine, I was being yelled at by my father for, in my perspective, an unspecified wrongdoing. It was very chaotic because he was just yelling, I had absolutely no idea why. He’s not the sort that will say “I am angry at your for ding X and Y”, he would instead say “I can’t believe you’d do that! Why would you!? (“that” never being explained”. It is one thing to scold the wrong person for a fault, it;’s another to not even indicate what’s being done wrong.
Eventually my mother, who decided not to intervene on my behalf, finally stated that it was my sister that did all this. As you can imagine, I was livid and was tying to bite back at my father for blaming me for something I did not do, and not even trying to get the facts straight. But since my sister was the favorite, he just walked away…then alter ordered me to park the car back in, despite my sister’s car still in the driveway.
As you can imagine, I still remember that moment and how my faith in house rules fell apart. When you make house rules and not only apply it to only one person, but punish THAT one person when other people break the rules, the rules mean nothing, and the man of the house lose all respect, first from the one being blamed, and then from everyone else who now knows they won’t suffer similar consequences.
