Here we go again!
my difficult child-dad told my mom a few days ago. "I'd probably end up punching someone and getting into trouble."
???? What does THAT mean?
I don't know how they got on the subject of bars anyway, since my dad probably hasn't been in one in 40 years. But that was his assessment of how he'd behave in such a situation.
My dad was diagnosis'd agoraphobic by a psychologist 30-ish years ago. We know he's always had issues with hoarding, paranoia, and depression. He's the type of guy who (admittedly) fantasizes about slashing your tires or keying your paint job if you park too close to his car or slight him in some perceived way. Who knows, he may have actually done this before.
My mom and I are just a little mystified at his statement about being in a bar, though. As if punching someone is ever a socially acceptable form of behavior...
