Ivy921 answered Saturday October 8 2005, 5:31 pm: You have to understand, he's under a lot of stress and probably doesn't know how to deal. If your mom is sick (I hope its nothing serious) he's probably stressed about that and he's probably sad because you two are growing apart. If, like you said, you haven't done anything wrong, then don't sweat it. He probably just said that in the heat of the moment and probably won't bring it up again. If he does, and you have a "talk" just try not to get mad and try and address his concerns in a calm way. That will make it a lot easier to deal with in the long run. In the mean time, I'm sure you are being fine and its ok to be alone, but he'll get off your case and you'll get along better if you maybe make more of an effort to be nicer to him.
Good luck and keep me posted.

If you're scared that your dad is saying he knows about bad things that you say you aren't doing, then you've got nothing to worry about. So, don't let your dad telling you he knows what you've done scare you, when you havn't done anything bad. If you're scared about him threatening to send you to private school, then you need to go and ask him about it. I know that you just don't want to take my advice, but just think about it, how else will you be able to get through to him? Keep up your attitude? Nope. You need to find out what the real problem is. You need to go up to your dad, and say, "Listen dad, I know that one day when things got out of hand, I wasn't in a very good mood, and I was being a little snobby, and I'm sorry for being that way to you for no reason, I've just been frustrated lately, and I want to be alone a lot now. But, its really hard to move on because, I havn't really done anything that you wouldn't approve of. So, I'm not understanding why you're talking about sending me to a private school when I havn't done anything." Say something at least along those lines. Think about this, there is no other way to stop feeling scared. I promise that if you talk to him, you'll feel better. You need an update or explaination from him.

As far as the other things are concerned talked to him about them but no matter what he says don't let him get to you because then he will know what else makes you tick and you don't want that do you. I hope that I helped but if not you can visit me at my column. [ rosebud_01's advice column | Ask rosebud_01 A Question ]

Ok, go up to him calmly, and whatever you do dont get angry, and ask him what exactaly you did wrong. I know, you dont want to, but this is a method that has worked out for me many times in the past, so this will work out fine. And tell me how things go!
