TIFU by going through my parent's trash

This reminds me of my evil stepdad when I was a child. He would take Christmas and birthday presents from me and my sister as soon as we got them. He would make us keep them unopened in the top of our closet or his and my moms closet and we would never get to open them. We had an Easy Bake Oven that we never got to play with and then eventually he made us set outside in a garage sale. He made my sister sell her stuffed animal that she carried around all the time. She had just got it back from our grandmother who was fixing it and sewed it back together.

He would make us throw away sentimental things that our grandmother gave us. She gave us a set of playing cards that she had for forever that he took as soon as we got home. I found them like a year later in his closet. One day our grandmother helped us hole punch some children’s magazines we had at her house and put them in a binder to take home. When we got home, he made us stop in the garage before we could even go inside and take all of the magazines out of the binder and put them in the recycling bin.

He did things to us that were MUCH more evil but for some reason I remember things like this that he did and it still bothers me so much.
