My dad gets mad REALLY easy. For an example, the other day i wanted to try out for travel softball and i asked him if he could bring me some clothes to try out in. then he said "what do you wanna try out for? the outfield?" so then he came to pick me up and he saw me playing for a little. When we were walking to the car he was like "do you WANT to try out?" and i said "no anymore.." because what he said to me sorta put me down. so then he said "YOU NKOW WHAT? YOU NEED AN ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT" and i said "I only said i didnt want to anymore i didnt even say anything" and then hes liek "THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO RITE NOW IS TO SHUT YOUR MOUTH!" and i dont know what to do because he gets mad so easy for no reason. HELP!
tell him how you are feeling. i know its kinda hard, & you might feel a little bit shy because he might get pissed, but its the best thing to do. tell your dad that you love him & he is really hurting your feelings. & if he doesn't understand how you are feeling, then talk to your mom about it, maybe she could talk to him. ive done that before and it helped quite a bit.

Maybe you should ask your dad to go to a counciler with you. and if he gets mad, then you go to one and get advice about it. I bet he needs either some kind of medication, or at LEAST an outside opinion. Maybe this other person could help him realize the harm he's causing to you.
