| My dad and I have always been on good terms with each other; however, my friend and his dad get in physical fights all the time. |

| My father and I don't get along at all, but I've never reached the point of actually raising a hand and swinging even after countless occasions of being physically beaten by him. I take pain pretty well and we're pretty even in size, but even though I don't think I have any respect for him anymore he's still my father, it's kind of hitting your own blood, man. If he ever does anything to my mother or sister than that's another story, 's gonna get wild. |

| I think its just in our character that every couple of years we have to have it out with one another. its really just part of the relationship. I dont hate him and he doesnt hate me, i just consider it festivus |

My dad never punched me out or anything, but he did some standard ear pulling, arm twisting, pushing down, and smacking while growing up.
We are now the same exact height, but he has 40 pounds of extra tire. I knew if it came down to it I could easily tackle him down from his legs, pull his arm from the opposite side while kneeing his torso down.
One time I attempted to go to the labor camps to film the conditions, and I ran into hot water. My dad got really pissed, and he "banned" me from such stunts against the UAE government, since he said the whole family /business could be jeopardized by my actions(now I see that there is truth to this) He kind hail blazed me a few times in the torso, and pushed me onto the couch. I got back up, said you, and this time I didn't let him push me back down. I remember driving him into the wall and grabbing his neck saying I am "free from his tyranny". It then threw him forcefully back onto the couch and pressed him down and told him to cool off. No shots to the face from either side, which was a good thing. We didn't talk for a while, and in I referred to him as "Homo" whenever we did talk which gets his blood boiling. Nowadays, we regularly call each other homo in a very casual way with no malice intended lol.
More recently, there was some cocktail party that had some pretty interesting people. One of which was a Dr. Al Riyadhi, who was a personal Doctor to Saddam's family for some time. I am not the to put up with convention and be polite and talk about the ing weather, so I flat out asked him why he didn't poison the weasel when he had the chance, along with his sons. Very offended that I asked the question, he said"oath" and just started to walk off, so I kind of grabbed his arm lightly saying "hey did you ever get contacted to kill the prick"? my dad was nearby and said to cool it, and we got into an argument, I was cussing him, his ways, his conventions, so in another room(this party was in our house) he went to that zone where he is my commander and started pushing, so I just got up in his face, then he said get out,and threatened to call the cops(in which even if the father hits the son I will still be at fault) I said make me, and he tried to make me, and I just kept resisting while letting my words do some damage. Eventually he gave up and went back, and I pissed off for a bit.
Things have been kind of shaky since then, and its a very conditional relationship. I sometimes remind him, "dont go there", and that will suffice. We are somewhat civil today, and perhaps I will get involved in business/Iraqi politics in the future with him If we can figure out how to not drive each other crazy
Good thread...those moments of breaking through the barrier when you've had enough is like reaching the next level in a videogame or some! I am lucky that I managed to come out of conflict with minimal damage, Middle eastern patrairchs tend to have very little tolerance for this kind of treatment of the parents. |

| Nope, luckily me and my Dad have a good relationship. He's quite a bit older now too (70, on June 5th), so he's not very strong anymore. Had our share of shouting matches, but nothin' serious. |

Me and my dad are on very good terms so there's never really any reason.
Although once when I was in high school he socked me in the face pretty hard. I was asking for it though. |
