Contest Result: Do you remember what horrifying incidents you faced growing up?

in Dream Steem18 days ago

I am pleased to announce the result of my aforesaid contest:

Actually, I took this idea after reading @aminasafdar:

Oh my God😂😂😂
I'm sorry @dove11 and @wakeupkitty, i shouldn't find it funny, but it is.
Have you seen my parents?
Seems like
It's a race between all of them. I think all the parents are the same when it comes to advertently exploiting their kids.

If you guys are interested, we can run a contest, whose parents perfectly did it wrong inadvertently?

And @wakeupkitty.pal replied:

"No, no, no, not all the parents are the same but if you like we can have a writing contest but it should mske us laugh not cry.

Where will we keep it? Dreamers or freewriters?
Bad Parents Stories - Have you met mine?

Or we keep a bad parent story chain. One starts and invites the next..."

I thought, why not?

So I started...

"Do you remember what horrifying incidents you faced growing up?"

Now I am sitting here, scratching my head.

I had asked for sour experiences with your parents, some very sour, and some funny but sad. I got them all right, but I missed the theme,

But remember that there won't be any fun if you try to make us cry. We want to see the comic side of these incidents, and this will be one of the main rules of this contest.

Do they fall under the category of atrocities? I will say yes, a few of them were off-topic, and a few of them were on-topic, but the fun part was certainly missing.

Unfortunately, a couple of them had nothing to do with the topic, although their writing was good and the theme was excellent.

I understand how it feels when one faces the music during their childhood, so I tried to make things light, but it boomeranged on me.

Your prizes are in your wallets!

In the end, I am sorry to say that I have to exclude two very nicely written stories because they were entirely off topic. As far as my story, I was not in the race.

Thank you all for your great participation.

@wakeupkitty.pal over to you.

I didn’t really take time to read the contest well… when I saw the topic “horrifying incidents you faced growing up”. My childhood story was what came to my mind…

I will do better next time..😊

Thank you for getting my point.

I remember well that I often "missed the point" in essays at school... When an assignment triggers something, you just move in your own imagination... It was worth reading the posts! Many thanks for the good idea!

Welcome, keep rocking!

Yeah, I understand it exactly the same way as you had suggested.

But then I saw some contributions and some comments and I was like: What the heck? Did I miss something... But that's the part of the deal. Being misunderstood 😉

I guess, a theme like this was bound to stir some underlying and repressed emotions.

Anyhow, congratulations on running this contest.

All is well that ends well :)

Oh yeah! That's part of the game and you have to face them all!

What can I say? I missed the fun part too. Not only afterreading your entry but also after I read the first entry I got confused.

We (I) can give it another try later. Perhaps by just asking for a funny (fiction) story with the topic parents?
Most of us already knew who have the not so great parents, they come in all shapes and shades, and it is difficult, to some dangerous to talk about.

We know we are not the only ones and you found some great stories, with some luck we might engage more and meet somewhere in the middle.

Congratulations to the winners and lets see with how much Steem I can increase my prize money at the start of the new month.

Thanks for hosting and my prize.

Most welcome! Reserve a slot for my entry in advance!

Fue un excelente concurso. Me hizo bien escribir sobre mi experiencia personal, un poco traumática. Las otras historias fueron muy buenas, cargadas de aprendizajes. Un abrazo, y gracias por siempre apoyarme. Eres para mí, una paloma de mensajes gratos.

Hello sir,@dove11,
