Is it considered child abuse...?!
I grew up in the south, and I'm the only person I know who hates them. An you can't put enough crap in them. No matter how much salt, pepper, butter, bacon, eggs, or milk you mix in them, they just taste like salty, peppery, buttery, bacony, eggy snot. Ugh.
Answers: ..if at the age of 19 your father is still trying to force feed you grits?

Oh the Injustice and the Indenceny. you knwo if somehow you can convince the court that you are mentally stuck at age 17 then maybe you will have a case. but that is probably not the best idea becuase then they would never let you move out or get married. There has got to be away to fight the injustice though.
Maybe you could start a group for Adult children who's parents force them to eat grits.
ROFL
You should sick spider pig on him.
No, but it's a good idea to change your diet to something healthier than that.
your not a child so no its not child abuse. unless he is tying you to the chair and forcefully shoving it into your mouth then yes it is abuse but it bothers you so much then move out.
Are you mentally stable? Or are you taking the piss, if not get help. 19 you say, don't believe it.
Its not child abuse since you are not a child. At 19 you are a legal adult and just need to tell him to leave you the F alone about the stupid *** grits.
If you're 19 you're not a child so, no, it's not child abuse.
Feed them to the dog when he's not looking.
maybe just tell ur dad u dont like them its as easy as that
No it is not child abuse because you aren't a child for one...you are grown. For two, feeding you isn't abuse unless he is tying you up and making you eat the grits.
yes that is child abuse lol grits suck they r so plain and tasteless whats the point!
lol no its not abuse and i hate grits too. But im not from the south. But i live in it.
LOL, I don't think that is quite child abuse... you are 19, you could move out if it bothered you that much
LOL I can't believe you don't like grits! What's wrong with you?
hahaha, jk
no it's not abuse, unless he's like holding you down and shoving it down your throat....that'd be a bit wierd
Uh, since you're over the age of 18, it's definately not child abuse. You're an adult. Tell your father to leave you alone, you hate grits, and there is NOTHING he can do about it. Hold your ground. If he hits you, that's assault. I hate grits too. UGH!
At 19 its not child abuse, but could be considered an assault if he is manhandling you. What's the big deal about the grits that he feels that he has to force feed you? Grits look like wallpaper paste to me. My dad and husband like them, but not me! Yuck
hmmm.
run far far away.
you know, i read a book about a girl whose dad abused her by making her kneel on uncooked grits as a punishment.
so at least it's not painful abuse.
=D
No, I don't think so.
Come on - you're not a child!!! Is your father holding you down & putting them in your mouth? That's assault & battery!
I hate grits, too! I think they should be used as wall paper paste!
You're 19. You're not a child. So no, it would not be child abuse.
I like my grits with butter and brown sugar. Try that if you feel you still need to appease your father "one last time".
They're quite good that way.
I'm surprised of your sentiment about grits. That is exactly why I opt for grits over oatmeal.
Are you eating wheat grits or hominy grits? I assume down South it's hominy grits, but if it's wheat, try hominy. Much different texture.
don't ever let anybody tell you what to eat. this is your stomach not there's!
It isn't child abuse unless:
1. The food is poisoned.
2. He hurts you while doing so.
3. Sells you.
4.Maliciously does stuff to you.
So unless you aren't hurt physically, it isn't child abuse. ^_^
Just say no - aren't there any options for you such as corn flakes etc?
I was force fed porridge as a kid and it reminded me of snot as well, I used to gag - lucky my mother used to sneak me Weet-Bix occasionally.
Tell him you are old enough to know what you want to eat.
I beat my son with a hickory stick just for physical conditioning, but I would NEVER make my kid eat grits. Thats just terrible.
Well you stopped being considered a child at 18. Time to get your own place. Gees I wouldn't eat that either.
If your dad is still trying to "force feed" you a food you do not like, there is a reason for it. Maybe you've allowed him to do this for too many years. If you don't like grits, you don't like them.
But at age 19 its rather difficult to imagine a father trying to "force feed" anything to you.
Don't you have a bedroom? Go there when he wants to force feed you. In fact, tell him you want him to eat your share.
Well at 19 you are no longer a child, so child abuse is out. However, it is a shame that you haven't had a decent plate of grits. You say eggy.... I have known some people, but not many, who do mix an egg in with the grits. And you are right, it is nasty. But if you fix them properly, they are really delicious. Even my inlaws who are from out west and had no idea what a 'gritz' was.. were pretty impressed. Cook um' up firm and mix in some pepper and grated sharp cheese.. OMG it is good. You don't need to add bacon into it or all of that.
not really you become an adult at the age of 18 (in most states any ways)
but if you feel it's child abuse contact your local Children & Family office
your a legal adult now so no.
Child abuse,hmmm...I think not unless he is tieing you to a high chair & force feeding you that way.
I found a way to eat grits only if smothered in butter & SUGAR. Then they are almost like Tapioca pudding without the lumps though.
I'm convinced that grits are the devil. My husband keeps trying to get me to eat them.
I can't believe everyone took you so seriously here...
LMFAO he thinks you're too skinny?
hey i know chase him around the kitchen and make him eat what he dont like lol
