13/F

So every night, I sleep in my room. I have an alarm that goes off about 8 times on my phone (I have a pass code on my phone, so he can't turn it off but he can turn it off by sliding my phone) and he always turns it off because it's "annoying" - Yet HE GETS MAD AT ME WHEN I'M LATE TO SCHOOL!

Plus, he turns off my TV and leaves my door open every night. My TV isn't loud and my door is SHUT NO MATTER WHAT.

What do I do? He turns off my alarms and gets me in trouble at school, he turns off my TV, touches my things in my room, and he leaves my door open. My mom NEVER does this. I'm getting really annoyed at him. Advice please?

The phone situation, I would definitely try having a conversation about privacy with the both of your parents at the same time. This will allow your mother to have her say in the matter and maybe enlighten your father on her point of view. You could also ask them to try and wake you up instead, since the alarm is "annoying". As parents, their sole purpose in life is to take care of you and protect you. God forbid if something were to happen to you while they were asleep, and your room door was shut with the TV turned on, on the outside of your room, nobody would be able to hear anything! Not to mention, having your TV on at night when you're not watching it is a waste of electricity. But, if you need it to fall asleep, you could try getting a TV with a timer on it so it can turn off automatically. Your fathers intentions could really mean anything, but you will never fully understand unless you make the time to have a real, mature conversation with him so he can hear what you have to say, and same with him! I hope this helps. :)


I never said he did anything to you in your sleep or that he was a bad man. I said that if something bad happened to you, your parents would probably never know because your room door is shut and the TV is turned on at night.

(Rating: 3) My dad isn't a bad person, or does anything to me in my sleep, but it's just getting annoying.

Thanks for the advice!
