How do I make my dad understand how much he's mentally hurting me by taking away my iPod permanently until he can block chat sites? When he takes it away and blocks the chat sites, I can't talk to my friends or my girlfriend anymore, and it's really hurting me. I try to talk to him, but all he does in response is not listen and make fun of me. I really need someone's help right now... v.v

Hello,


TO me it seems like your dad is not acting like a parent and more of a child when he is making fun of you. Also, i know this is not my place to say, but have you talked to him? he may be just trying to look out for you and does not want you to get hurt. It could be his way of protecting you.
Something you can do is go to a public library or a friends house to talk to your friends/ if he is too strict maybe you can talk to a female figure such as an aunt or cousin to try to talk to him and convince him that it is normal to be talking to other people. He should not be expecting you to be a hermit all your life and rather to go out and be social.

Also, do you have siblings or anyone your age you can talk to about this that can try to get your dad to once again understand your point of you.
if you want to take the initiative and show that you are all grown up, you should have this talk with him and tell him that you will be careful or set time during the day to use your ipod. Also, im pretty sure if you have a computer you can also use it.

I Hope this helps,
-Sandy
