joel Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 ok today myself and my bro helped my dad fix the fence so we as noble sons say ok as our summers are always ruined b/c he takes his work holidays as the same time we take our school holidays. we especially i have to help him with house work-mow the lawn, fix the fence, help him with the house plumbing, fix the stove house work and fixing things he learns from the library books. the thing is when my bro complajns pay me first to dad he says in a harsh way well nobody pays me to drive u to school,. feed u,.........etc the thing that bothers me the most is his harsh demanding tone of voice "pick up the tools , what do u think needs to be done, don;t just stand there"-this in harsh annoying in ur face tone. this is just an example of his harsh demanding controlling tone of voice. it been like this my whole life. he also gets mad at me and my bro and mom for nothing and guess what this is the smallest things too-couldn't pry the nail out fast enough, .....i mean chill out.the thing with him is hes all big shot and loud mouth, dicatorship guy at home right and argues with my mom and us all the time over small things, but when its neighbours, co workers.... outside ppl hes like mr. nice guy-what a a**** i want to move out but from what i heard on the news most parents are paying for thier child's down payment for apartment or house, if i move out i am on my ownm, no money no nothing work for my own money and all. in my culture chinese we don't move out till we marry and i don't think i can take this from dad and mom any more.

fredrolin Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 My father is a very negative person. He never encouraged me to go to college and never complimented me if I did good, only put me down when I did wrong. I could become a successful millionaire and he would probably still insult me and put me down. Today I am almost 41 and he is 67. I have an 8 year old daughter that likes to sometimes hang around with my mother but my father is there still putting me down in front of my child and talking his negative crap. The man leads a miserable existence. The man is an alcoholic that doesn't drink, due to medical problems. We try to build up our daughter's self esteem. I don't want it damaged the way my father damaged me. Link to post Share on other sites
