Is it normal that i feel like i want to torture children?

Let me describe myself before I began.

Only child,father was a cheater and swindled money from my mother.I probably onl saw him less than 5 times.She had to pay him in order to visit me.I moved alot when I was younger. Think more than 17 times (yes Im quite certain of that). My mother is a maid and we lived in the employers house. One point,I threw a kitten (that everybody loved) down from the balcony.The kitten survived but it never came near me after that.

Back to my case.

I now live with my boyfriend 2 floors above a convenient store. We share the place with foreign families. Total kids there are 6. I work the graveyard shift and I sleep when the kids are playing. Out of the 6 kids,only 1 is a girl.She is loved,adored but she cant speak a word although she s already 2.She also is a bit spoilt i think

I realize I keep screaming from my room to keep quiet. One day, I screamed' Why dont you all just jump off the building,do yourself a favour'.They dont understand english at all (thank god). After that I caught the young girl standing near the stairs. I picked her up and I told her' If you make more noises,I will drop you off these stairs'.She became quiet.

Nowadays when they get too noisy,Ican picture myself torturing the girl and really taking it out on her. But i dont want to kill her. I just really want to torture her. I cant understand myself and I am scared I might actually do something that I will regret.Also (bad english I know), does this have any connection with my background?

Is It Normal?
Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

  • I can understand if u hate screaming brats
    But torturing them is not normal

    Dont even think about it
    Threating the child like that makes u a total douche bag and a child abuser
    And throwing a kitten to try and kill it makes you a bith and an animal abuser

    Fuck u
    Go to hell

    • Agreed. Stay away from kids, and please get your tubes tied so you never have any of your own.

      • I'm sorry, but I must agree. If you keep having these feelings, what might happen to any child you have? All children are prone to crying, screaming, etc. One day, you might not be able to control yourself....

  • Maybe your letting yourself express all the bad emmotions you had as a little kid towards your father. I don't think it's normal
    And I also think you should talk about this to someone. I'm not saying "go see a fucking doctor," but maybe you just need to let those emotions out, or get away for awhile away from those kids.
    Oh yea.
    If you still feel that way in like, a year,
    NEvER. Have ANY kids.
    NEvER.

  • It's not normal. But it's common. It's much more common among people who had a rough childhood (like yourself).

  • I totally know how you feel, I've been a bit rough with kids that have annoyed me. Mostly in my teens when my hormones were crazy. Even kicked a cat before so I know what you are going through.

  • Many people had a rough childhood. very few grab and threaten other people's children. If anyone ever sees you threaten a child like that you will likely be thrown in jail. Seriously get some help before you end up in a lot of trouble.

  • Sounds like it's time for you to move on. You need to be the "adult" and remove yourself from this situation immediately. I sense that you are at your breaking point. Do something now, so you don't end up regretting something worse, later.

  • it would be perfectly normal if ur not in north america. in a lot of countries. even strangers can smack kids u don't know when they don't behave.

  • You're a monster. First you threw a kitten, now you want to torture innocent children. I suggest you get away from those kids before you act on those urges.

  • It's pretty cowardly that you threaten the one child who is quiet and shy!

    Sorry about your shitty childhood but how would you feel if you died and everyday a giant kitten would drop you off a balcony for all eternity.

  • Hey, it's easy to jump to the 'you are sick' argument but who does that help here? First of all, well done for asking the question and seeking help - acknowledgement of your scary thoughts is what will separate you from those that seek to justify their behaviour and ignore the consequences. You clearly are a deeply good person or you wouldn't even air these worries so publicly. There are many people who have 'evil' thoughts but they don't say them out loud.
    No.1 - Your need to harm small things/vulnerable members of society and not other adults is a key factor that is most definitely stemmed from your childhood. You want the control back that you were not able to get as a child with a deadbeat dad. Your anger has stayed since then as you never received answers as to why you were rejected as a kid and why you lacked the love you deserved. This is why my answer contains sympathy and not hatred because people can only grow when they give light to the best parts of themselves. Pointing out the darkness in people feeds their darkness and insecurity - which serves no one. You can't help how you feel, that is clear but what is also clear is that you seek to change or you wouldn;t be here. Remember that your hatred towards these kids is something deep inside you and not them - like you, they dont deserve mal treatment. You too were once this age, behaving this way and wanting only love from adults. They may be brats but that's a perception and I'm very aware that I too was a bit of a brat with a terrible childhood and I hated it when adults told me so, yelled at me and hit me. It didnt make me less a brat, in fact, it worsened my behaviour - as it apparently has done yours long into adulthood. I would never even hit a child but that's a choice for me because I want to heal that part of myself that was tiny and scared and being abused by those in power. You have the power also to take your resentment and turn it into a different kind of power - one that you can use to make these kids lives a bit better by knowing that you were once exactly were they were. Maybe your jealous they have a family that works or that they get away with things you didnt, but hurting them will only take that privilige away from them - just like it was taken from you. Be strong, get help, and most of all fight the urge to be the 'baddie' like your father, you cant change what he did to you or the lack of time he had for you but you can change others experience and what you do in the future. There's so much mre power in happiness than there is in torture - that's the weak path. That's the path people like your father took - the easy way out, the selfish way. Do you want to be like him? and maybe even ruin your future by goin to jail if you give into your subconscious need to gain control? Somewhere in there is a good person, a person that will show every one that you alone are the master of your own life and that the past is no longer going to rule you. I believe you can do it. Treat those kids with smiles and patience and heal that part of yourself that didnt get that as a child otherwise youll be no better than the people that chose to neglect you. Good luck with all you do and do something positive with your life - use your past pain as a tool to be all that you can be and no longer listen to how bad you are or what you do or do not deserve. Be strong and get the help you deserve to finally be free xxx

  • Whether you are joking around or not, whether you are a troll or not, there are some mentally ill persons out there who think this way. there is no joke in this sense. So I will approach this in all sincerity.

    Two things to point out. You went after the two loved "beings" here: the kitten and the little girl, both of which were loved, and you are not, which you seek to destroy.

    Humans are incredibly selfish. Im sure we are all familiar with the father who hits his kids and justifies it with "well, my father did it to ME. If I could handle it, so can my kid..etc"

    In the same manner you are extremely tied/bounded by your childhood resentfulness that seeing others loved is too overwhelming for you. Im suspecting that you are living with your boyfriend because you have no other place to live, not because you actually like him, much less love.

    Your emotional callousness and apathy and indifference towards torturing another human being is a concern. It honestly worries me that there are persons out there who have kids and subject them to a life of psychological abuse and brutal physical violence.

    I pray to god that you never bring a child into this world

  • You're just using your past to have an advantage to do evil things.

    Also, obvious troll is obvious.

  • When you're trying to sleep it's understandable that you threaten them. And you do it to the girl because you're a female and are (whether you realize it or not) jealous of her attention and how she is spoiled.

    But doing that to a kitten is just unjustified. If you were younger than 8 (the age where you begin to understand death), it is acceptable but any time after that, it's just terrible.

  • You are going to have a rough adulthood if her dad sees yo dumb ass touching her...bet you that.

    Whenever i see a kid in public behaving like a demon, i always wish i could just spank em. Torturing a kid though, no way. You do have issues and i dont see you distinguishing someone elses kid from your own. no kids for you please...
