I think you should just tell them the truth. He got arrested. I went through the same thing, and it is hard, but people won't talk as much if you tell them what really happened. Besta Luck

make up sum really cool (but false) reason as to why he got arrested. EG oh yeah he was the presidents bodyguard secretly but then one day when the president couldn't spell his name right on his paycheck, he called the president an ass hole and then the fbi arrested him for being a terrorist threat. or something possibly less unbelievable perhaps. but basically play with the people who are gossiping's heads. keep them guessing. who cares what you tell them, they don't matter!

Act normal. When people storm around you to ask why you dads an idiot for getting arrested, you'll ingnor it and then you will be left alone!

I understand how you can feel emberassed because that makes total sense just say you can't control his actions and your ashamed for him and you wish that it didnt happan and to please not talk about it and that its not your fault. I mean its really nobody's business-trix

its okay.. the same thing used to happen to me when an ambulance would come for my mom b.c. she kept over dosing and getting arrseted... just, when people ask you what happened tel them not to worry about it...It was nothing serious...and if they get mad then oh well cuz its ur life and u'd tell them if wanted to. and its not your fault so dont be embarassed. It'll all be okay.
hope I helped..

I went through the same thing when I was in high school, and the best thing to do is to pretend that it doesn't bother you. If you show them that it bothers you, they will keep bugging you about it. If you act like you don't care what they think, they'll get bored and move on to something else.

be the same girl you've always been. if a friend asks you, say, "i'd rather not talk about it" and change the subject. if someone u don't know asks, ignore them. if someone is repeatedly bothering you, tell them to get a life other than yours. if people tease you, let them know that you aren't your dad. you don't have to defend him, and if people know you won't talk about it, they're less likely to talk about it. you are not your dad, and anyone who can't see that isn't worth worrying about.
