Okay, I have fallen out with my dad...BIG TIME!, And this is why (And it is stupid):

 

 

We were having dinner and I said, oh, i really like it, can i have a bit more, like as much as everyone else (because being the youngest, i usually get the least :(), And he got well mad, and gives me loads, and has none left for himself and shouts at me and makes us all feel sorry for him!, And he does this all the time!, I have ago at him, and keep telling him to apologise, and he keeps saying no and I said 'I'll walk out', and he said 'Fine' and then I said 'You'd let your own son walk out into the cold night just to enhance your ego' and that is when he got mad!, I just can't talk to him!, I AM SICK OF HIM!, He does stuff like this all the time, and is it wrong to think that I hate him!

 

 

:veryangry2::(

welcome to the club. i hate my dad too. (for very good reasons)

Sounds like he needs a box of tampons and some Pamprin or Midol. If you don't have enough money for that, maybe just a cork and some Ibuprofen.

 

Anyway, what are the circumstances surrounding dinner? Is there not enough for everybody to have an equal amount? :thinking:

My Dad had a heart transplant a couple years ago, and ever since he's been pretty chill. But he used to have a pretty bad temper, a lot of it had to do with his health... But it generally used to be that he would have a really bad outburst every 6-9 months (sort of like a temper time-bomb).

As the youngest, my siblings saw the worst of it growing up, but a few years ago at christmas, on the way home from picking up my sister from the airport, we were having a seemingly harmless discussion about one of my dad's short stories and suddenly he just went off on a tyrade. We were in the car and I couldn't run away, so I had to just soak in the yells and insults. Needless to say it was horrible, but we played golf the next day and went on like nothing ever happened. Perhaps other parents are the same way, stress just builds up and they just release it on the first person that aggrovates their sensitivity in the smallest of ways.

Poor Simon :(

we could very easily of had equal amounts, but then he gives me loads and comes in and says, because Simon needs more, I've got an empty plate! :veryangry2:

Yeah, odd things have happened with him being crazy to me for some reason, but I have actually shouted at him and called him 'pompous' 'arrogant' and has a 'smaller ego than he thinks'!....To name a few and I said he was like Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde!

 

Poor Simon :(

 

Yep, poor me :(

If your dad constantly does those kind of things, say something if you think he'd listen. If not try not to let it bother you. I know it's not easy but unfortunately there isn't much you can do.

I have said stuff, but yeah, it's a case of waiting for him to calm down!, I Havn't talked to him today, yet.

Don't apologise if you haven't done nothing wrong just because you want him to speak to you again. It will probably bother him just as much as you if you don't talk to each other for a while.

He's got a split personality like Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Sometimes he is REALLY Nice sometimes he is just, well...EVIL!

my parents still haven't realized that there are actually just 3 people living here these days..not 5 as it used to be. So we always have tons of food and left-overs.

 

I agree with Sally, you shouldn't apologize if you don't think you've done something wrong..

mm may be is for stress, may be he is worried for something, or he waits that you say something nice when he does something good for you, like give you something you want to have... :thinking: so he doesn't see you appreaciate what he does for you may be that's why he comes like that... i don't know.

 

we didn't argued so i can't help you much Simon, i hope things will be fine there soon :nice:

What if you yourself put food on your plate? I mean ... does your dad always do it? If you do it yourself, he can't say anything about having an empty plate .... ;)

Woww, wtf?

:/

Cranky. :[[

welcome to the club. i hate my dad too. (for very good reasons)

 

With all good reasons, of course, I HATE MY DAD TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LIDUSHFLEJKSDJLKMXOSJIHUIEYRIUOEWY

If it is his fault, than don't back down, he will see he was in the wrong sooner rather than later and give you gifts to say sorry

^ Haha David, my Dad is DEFINETELY not that type of person!, We have kind of semi- made up but he hasn't actually apologised, but he'll do something like this all over again sometime!, Today aswell he had a go at me for continously having arguments with my brothers!, And we don't that much, no more than most families!

You will get used to having an annoying father.

 

But I bet your dad isn't a bling drinker

My Mum is 55, and he is 64, yeah, pretty old, but they actually don't look old, I'd say my dad looked in his early 50's, and my mum in late 40's

I know it!!! Last week mom got mad at me cuz my cell phone had low battery so I switch it off and she got crazy cuz she said she was worried about me.... but why in the world she needed to talk to me if she knew I was at college.... who gets them??? I mean college is 5 mins away from my house nothing could have gone wrong in my way home but she's paranoid!!!
