i was the same size as my dad when i was 14 but he was much stronger. by 16 i had 4' and a good 20 lbs on him. we came close to fighting but i could never punch him. that would be wrong. he never did any bad shat to me. even when i was a big insane teen calling him every cuss word invented i never hit him and he never hit me. he did choke me into submission 2 times though! (i dont blame him, id do the same to my son if he was a punk like me!)
