[quote=Anonymous]What is ribbing to one person is ridicule to another. My dad always made fun of me growing up. It was cruel and not harmless at all (think race, intelligence, values, etc). I grew up feeling ugly and stupid. The working world has shown me that's certainly not the case at all. As an adult, I understand it's because he's immature. He doesn't have the bandwidth to say something kind to someone's face. I don't know why that is - maybe kindness is a vulnerability in his mind and he can't show that. The sad thing is my mom now, probably after decades of being with him and never receiving kindness, does it too. So hanging out with both of them is painful and all they do is make fun of everyone around them. People don't like them at all. [/quote]
