HOLY FUCK! My dad is a fucking piece of shit.

i hear ya dude, my mom went through the SAME EXACT thing and living on her own was the hardest part since it was the first time she had ever lived by herself. but in the end it was the best thing for all of us. and if it makes you feel any better i havent spoken to my father in about a year. everyone has their shit ya know
 
i actually really love my dad, and i dont know what i would do with out him

it stinks though, try talking to him, find out what is wrong
 
everyone makes mistakes and is a dick sometimes...think about the kids above who lost their dads...

the last thing you want is to be on bad terms with him if something were to happen. Pick your battles, if you really hate your dad, then im sorry. If you're just saying that cause he was a dick and you're mad at him, don't be mad for long, you'll regret it.
 
yeah that is pretty horrible, my grandpa is like that with my grandma. he always threatens to move to a retirement home. he's a little sick in the head.
 
HATE is a strong word. But I feel your pain. I HATE my old man as well. Since my brother and I were 12 we werent allowed to call him father or dad, we had to call him sargeant, sarge, and finish all sentences with sir. yes sir no sir.
 
Have you ever sat down with your mom, and had a legit heart to heart conversation with her? Like, explain to her how you feel, and how your dad effects your life?
 
maybe she doesnt really know how you feel though. take you mom out to dinner or coffee or something and talk it out with her. just talk, no confrontation, no you did this, or he did this, hes a piece of shit etc...just talk. 1) it shows her that you really do care and 2) it shows her that even though this is a shitty situation you've matured through it....picking up what im putting down young grasshopper? hope it works out for you :)
 
well, my dad was a jerk... he fucked around on my mom, was lazy, let her work to support the house and the family while he sat on his ass... and i totally cut him out of my life.

but now i think im regretting it because there was still some good in him you know? you only get one father. maybe think about it some more and look at his good qualities too. ill bet your dad cares about you and your future if he is willing to sacrifice enough to send you to college.
 
and id like to add. wow! alot of these storys are basically carbon copys of my own parent's divorce.

does anyone actually have a family anymore? i mean, parents that are still together, and happy? the family unit is really falling to pieces.
 
damn this is a depressing thread.....i hope some shit changes for some of you guys....anyways sorry to hear about it. get him to pay for your college and on grad. day say peace out
 
i dunno how old u are but if youve ever been in a serious relationship like you really can/do get sick of a person, maybe hes sick of her like u dont know much about their feeling about each other
 
yeah i know how that is....sounds like my mom. and im definately not speaking to her after college, so i know how you feel.
 
dude, Gav...i thought someone had just stolen your icon..its a good thing you can tell when people have changed their names by looking in their profiles now, cause otherwise id be lost...
 
dont get mad anybody. do you smoke pot. pot is like the best medicine. it fixes everything. my friend broke his elbow once, got high, and was fine. it still clicks every once in a while but its ok.
 
Well you can always figure out it's me because I'm 1/10 people on NS who prefer typing correctly/with punctuations.
 
You, my friend, are a fucking tool.

I'm really sorry to hear about that man. I hope things work out for you and your family.

 
im so fucking pissed at my dad seriously how did i get such a shitty dad. he tells me i can come home today then TODAY he changes his damn mind and wont do fucking anything. Im soooo fucking pissed. He always disappoints...

end rant
 
yeah my dad's the man, not trying to make you feel bad. divorce would probably be the best for your mother and you. maybe you should pull her aside one time and just talk, it wouldnt hurt.
 
My dads doesnt forget shit like that but he is a stubborn as hell and he thinks he knows everything which is bullshit and he's always stressed and puts that shit on me and my brothers like were the source of his stress but infact hes just got somethin up his ass. Its funny the only time my dad is ever cool is when hes skiing like he doesnt care half as much about shit and hes way cooler.

Sorry about your dad dude just talk to him if you can and tell him straight up how you feel.
 
I am by far the minority, Parents have been together for 27 years, 2 kids, one boy one girl, older child is the boy, Father works, mother raised the kids. I don't know any friends that have this same traditional ideal family that I have, not saying that I dont fight with my dad etc, i do but i think that is natural.
 
*Honest opinion, don't get pissed and lash out at me if you feel otherwise*

No good can come of any of this if you continue to accept him as a part of your life, and your mom continues to do so.

If he really is as horrible a person as you make him out to be, and destroys the household as much as it seems from your post, he needs to be cut out.

Your mom is allowing an unhealthy living situation to perpetuate. She continues to put up with his abuse and negative actions that show a pattern that will not stop. By accepting his money for college, you are further giving him a sign of approval and acceptance.

Why should he feel the need to change his ways, or become a better person if there are no true ramifications for his actions?
 
Not only that, but his excuse not to give you a ticket was because of the fires in California. Which are in Southern Cal.

And you live in Norcal.

worst freaking excuse i've heard in a while.
