Line 24: Jake Morgendorffer was the son of an emotionally abusive father, nicknamed [["Mad Dog" Morgendorffer]], who (as Jake remembers it) tormented his son mercilessly and ultimately shipped him off to [[Buxton Ridge Military Academy\|military school]] the first chance he got (the very day after Jake stopped on his contact lens, according to "[[The Daria Hunter]]"). His father berated him for showing weakness ("Monster") and took him on camping trips to berate him about doing it wrong, then got drunk at night. Having "Mad Dog" for a father caused him to still wet the bed at age 15. ("[[The Teachings of Don Jake]]"). Despite all this, Jake's father went to the trouble of recording a lot of the boy's early life in home movies. ("Monster") Little is known about Jake's siblings, though it is possible he had an [[Jake's Older Sister\|older sister]]; Jake mentions having weirdo neighbours in "The Daria Hunter". At some point before Buxton Ridge, Jake was in the Boy Scouts with [[Paul Meyerson]].
