Don't complain about your family - Oprah today

I am watching todays Oprah and a lady is on who's father is a psychopathic serial killer. Talk about family problems. I think that would be hard to top. Knowing all the stuff that your father did would be very hard to deal with and get over. He used to tell her "hypothetical" stories when she was younger about how he could kill someone and get away with it. He also hung her kittens up on the clothes line, by the tails and tortured them in other ways and even kill. I am sorry but I 100% believe that torturing and killing animals without care is the first sign to a problem. I am glad that there are other people who feel the same. I have seen judges give very harsh punishment to kids who tortured animals, knowing not learning now could only lead to other things. He,the father, is in jail now and they have pretty much learned that the "hypotheticals" were not hypothetical, more of bragging. I can't even imagine how her family feels it is horrible to even think of. Did anyone see Oprah today? What did you think? Do you think you will ever complain about your family problems again?

That would pretty much suck. I'm glad my father is a good guy. It would be hard to live with the legacy of a father who has done something awful. I think there are many people who would really have a terrible time dealing with something like that. How could you not?

I saw part of the show and couldn't believe what this girl had to deal with growing up. It is horrible to hear how he would tell her stories and her not knowing it was really stuff he did. Yes once a person kills an animal that would be a big old red flag for me. No I will never complain about my family problems again.
