re: Name something crazy your dad had you do growing up

My dad was pretty strict. Especially when it came to chores. If he told me to cut the grass, I had to cut the grass no matter what. If I goofed off thinking I'd get out of it, he'd rain down hell. I've cut grass in the rain, at night, and on Christmas eve. It sucked but it taught me to follow through on commitments

Same here. One time he told me to mow when I got home from school, I didn't. Literally kicked me out of the house onto my mom's car. I start mowing cussing him for all he was worth, turn around and he was right behind me. He must have known I was scared shitless because he just turned around and walked back to the house.

The yard was always mowed after that, no matter what I had going on.
