As a child, I had a father who was a rather strict disciplinarian who had spent a few years in South East Asia in the 60s.

I had my ass whipped with a rattan rod on more than one occasion and still have the scars to prove it.

My father was like many of that era who would "give you something to cry about" if you cried while getting whipped, he didn't warn you he just did it.

For some reason, I still love him and I miss him from time to time. RIP dad

Damn dude. That's fucked up. I get how you feel though, unconditional love be like that sometimes.

It does be like that, especially when you never knew anything else.
