Question Posted Saturday December 16 2006, 8:36 pm
I love my dad, and he's like the only family i have near me (besides my friends). My mom died when i was 6 && my brother is away at college. Whenever we go out to eat my dad and I have nothing to talk about, only when he yells at me. When my brother comes they always talk, and always leave me out. I told him once and he's like "I just never talk to him anymore." They talk on the phone more than once a day- more than he ever talks to me. My dad always excludes me && my brother tries to include me.. what should i do?
