You failed as a son.
You could have easily used words to persuade him to recompensate you for the broken PS3.
But nope,
now you're up shit creek without a paddle.

man i play video games as much as the next guy
but seriously its sad to see that someone would get violent if their parents break or even just confiscate their ps3/360 for that matter..
sure, i'd probably get angry, really angry but i would never lay a finger on any of my parents no matter what happens

have some self control for christ's sake!

So let me get this straight.

You view your PS3 as more important than school, and your grades slip as you play it so much.

Your Dad then doing what any good Dad would do, queries this. In doing so his intention is to try and stop you pissing your life in the bin and becoming a minimum wage monkey.

You thank him by not only trying to justify playing the game in favour of studies, but punch him when he destroys his property (it's obvious you didn't buy it)?

Yes, you are a piece of shit, especially to the circumstance that he doesn't come to HIS house. I'd kick you out, ungrateful wretch.

While I agree breaking something that coast hundreds of dollars is way too extreme, you also deserve some punishment as well, just study hard and get good grades.

Your grades went down and your dad just wants the best for you, and you punch him in your face.

A wise saying, you'll never be bigger than your dad.

Well, it wasn't nice of him to throw your PS3 out of the window, even if you did play it excessively, BUT you shouldn't have punched him in the face either.

What I find really funny is that if he (your dad) was the one who bought the PS3 in the first place, he just wasted $600. Taking it away would have been a better option, but to destroy it is really just ridiculous.

Also, if you're playing video games excessively to the point that it is effecting your school work, you need to get your priorities straight. School > Video games

If i ever dared to hit my parents, over ANY matter, no matter how horrible, i would get kicked out.

You seriously punched your father over a PS3?

Who cares? It's easily replaceable.

Do you have any idea what you've done? Things will never be the same between you two.

Imagine, you come home from work, to your family. Home. Safe. Calm. Peaceful. Or so you thought until your son physically assaults you over a piece of electronics. You've shattered the illusion of "The home is safe and my family love me" for him. That can have a deep psychological impact on people.

I can only hope for the best, but the best isn't going to happen.

I really agree with this.I mean people heal over physical altercations.But emotional scars can last a lifetimes.You've caused some major difficult emotional obstacles.

Plus that fucking PS3 deserved it for being a PS3. lol

Too right!

Damn, he'll forgive you at some point. Until then however, AWKWARD. :\

Unless Ur dad is a dick, then no forgiveness

How daaarreee you punch a guy with glasses.

What? It was his dad? So what?

My dad is 56, and I punched him in the face, and broke his glasses in doing so.
He's still not talking to me, as a matter of fact, he hasn't come home in 2 days.
Sure we argue sometime, like a normal family, but I went crazy when my dad threw my PS3 out the window and broke it.
Am I a horrible child?

It was not smart, but I would've most likely done the same. That punch does make you a BAD child, but not a failure or anything of the sort.

yes. yes you are

No, it's called a bar... Not a home...

Well punching your dad in da face is an agression and not a really sulution.But thorwing a psp and breaking it is very bad if you are every obssesed and it costs much.Why did he throwed it anyway?

So you pretty much scrwed it big time dude.

Well done.

How old are you?

i think thats pretty bad if i were u i wouldnt care about my ps3 at the moment , i would try and make up with my dad, your dad is to important and if you ruin things now it will really affect you..

It doesn't matter if your grades are shit. Throwing the PS3 out of the window is not going to make them get any better. He should ban you from playing and take away the PS3. What kind of fucking moron throws something worth several hundred out of their window? You on the other hand should not have punched him and you are an asshole for doing so.

You're thirteen.

I knew I've seen it somewhere.

It's a sign of the times.

Sadly, these things always start happening when the economy slumps. People who've lived comfortably their whole lives forget how to cope with pressure and worry.

Still, no excuse to get violent, although you probably should have tried to diffuse the situation without touching him at all. His violence is a defense mechanism, as he felt unable to control things happening around him. He was (in that sense) powerless already, and putting your hand on him while asking an authoritative question made him feel even more cornered.

I feel bad for you, man. Hope shit works out in the end.
