Yeah, some parents really fail. So do teachers. I remember in the first grade being told that second graders who misbehave have to face a paddling machine. I wanted to go to a different school.
Then there was that BS about the "permanent record."
I'd hate to be a policeman. Can you imagine the number of times they have to be subjected to bad parenting like that?
I had a friend who wanted to be a policemen and the thought sent shivers up my spine.
I ended up getting a guilt trip over what happened. I kept getting told of the horrors of foster care and that I could get someone much worse. Then, they kept freaking me out with the possibility of a "permanent record" and having to be a "delinquent".
I admit it must be rather hard for them to deal with it. If it's not that then they don't react or they react too late.
The guys I knew who wanted to be cops where the kind of guys who weren't fit to serve fries at a burger joint.
I can't think of any phobias that I have that stem from my childhood, although there are some old people who give me the creeps and that's probably from childhood experiences.
My friend was one of the most logical people I know. So, hopefully he's doing his job right and not fucking up.
Some old people scare me too. I once drowned and had a bad experience with swimming lessons and now I have a extreme phobia of water. I think allot of things can contribute to phobias.
IIN to have police phobia?

I think it's normal to have a phobia for the reasons you described it. Early experiences can shape your mind for the rest of your life.

You're right.
Most of my fears were cause by traumatic events when I was younger.
