Is it normal that i fear spoons?

when I was 9 my father started to beat me with a wooden spoon that he would refer to as "the spanky spoon" as a form of discipline, eventually when I reached the 7th grade people in my school found out about and this my friends would start bringing wooden spoons to school to hit me with them, i tried asking teachers at the time for help but they would just send me to the clinic to get ice for my bruises, but shortly after the teachers would just start ignoring me whenever I plead for help. I'm now 33 years old and I still cant even go near a spoon without breaking into a sweat, it's even led to the point where my girlfriend has had to move back out of the house in fear that I may break down whenever she cooks. is any of this even normal?

  • The situation is not normal, but your reaction to it is natural. It sounds like post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

    You know what a giant spoon is? A shovel. You should get one and show your dad the new spanky spoon.

    When your dad is old and decrepit, and he can no longer feed, or clean himself hire a full figured Jamaican woman to nurse him, and beat him with a spoon on his bottom whenever he soils himself.

    ...or you could just steal a spoon, and turn on your evil father. Turn on your evil father, and beat him with a spoon!

    It's true, he might not be senile, or entirely decrepit yet, but surely by now he has grown more frail. Perhaps it us time that you unleash the spoon upon him, and put him in his proper place? The time has come for a reckoning!

      Indeed.
