i dont like him.


Question Posted Thursday December 30 2004, 8:21 pm

i really hate my dad.

no, really.

i sincerely dislike the man.

i am incredibly opinionated and very vocal about my opinions, which he hates.

i know i am smarter than him, he hates this also.

he yells at me for no reason often. condemning my use of the computer. stating that i'm on it too much.

my sister, on the other hand, watches TV all the time. he says i lack social skills because i'm on the computer "too much."

he's not around when i'm not on the computer and doing other things.

but yet i am still on the computer too much according to him.

i fight back all the time, but i hate it. i hate him.

i cant stand this anymore.

i want out.

due to his working situation i dont see him except for some weekends. (my parents arent divorced).

when he tries to punish me, he fails. he really cant. i have more power than he does in our family.

i'm 14, extremely mature and intelligent, if i do say so myself.

i dont want to kill him (in my head i do, on paper it doesnt look so good) but i'd like some way to come to peace with him.

i am NOT going to shut up and stop being opinionated however.
any advice on what i should do?

Talk to your dad and tell him exactly how you feel. If you can't do it face to face, try email or a note. Just tell him how you feel. If he doesn't understand, talk to your mom about things, and see if can do anything about it. Good luck!
Hope I helped!
Happy New Years!

Well..you just need to sort things out with your dad. Give him a chance and if that doesnt work, see a counsler and talk about how you feel, because im pretty sure that would help.
Hope it works out!!

hi i think that you need to work things out with your father.. there are many ways to express your feelings to your dad such as.. writeing him a note, telling it to his face, talk to a counsler and etc. when u get very angry at your dad just count down by 10 to 1 taken deep breaths in between instead of slammin doors or what ever else... good luck with your father-Ashlee-

If you really hate your dad that much, you definately shouldn't keep that to yourself. You should tell your dad how you really feel about how he's treating you, and how wrong it feels to you. If you don't have the guts to tell your dad how you feel, write a letter to your dad to let the anger out, and that will reduce your anger as well. You can either give the letter to your dad or just keep it to yourself, and when you finally have the guts to give it to your dad, go ahead. In my opinion, you should talk to your dad the earliest before any other problems rise.

I'd see a counsler for it.No matter how much you say you hate him. Just because he is your dad, there will always be a side of you that loves him. Just see a counsler and try to work things out with him.

well, since you have stated you have more power then him, he feels threatened. your intelligence scares him, knowing his little girl doesn't look up to him and need him anymore. your opinions are proof of this. do not stop speaking out, it is his issue if he doen't like it. it's america, speak your mind. also, you being online is feeding you mind of more knowledge, he may not be completely comfortable with that. but yet again, his problem, not yours. but maybe have friends over on weekend when you see him, fun for you and he is assured you do have a social life. you knowing that you are smarter, although, may be true, shows arrogance. many people absolutely intollerate arrogance and find it annoying, toning down the "im smarter then you" will definantly help. but most of all, ask him for help on your homework one day if he's not busy, although he probably won't show it because of hi stupid pride, he will feel needed and maybe cut down on the hateful words. your dad obviously has issues, and never blame yourself for these. and by the way, killing him will never solve your problems. you are smart and have a future, murder will wreck any chance of a life for you. i hope i helped, and good luck.

Well the only way to make peace maybe is if you dont tlak back. yes your opinionated but theres a difference between talking back to your parents and being opinionated. So I think you should just keep your thoughts to yourself and let hm think hes right. Thats all you can do..sorry about the problem with ur dad and you!
