YummyMummy Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 yes thats right, he gets on me nerves so much that even the thought of talkin 2 him on the phone gets 2 me!! U might wonder wot can he be doin that is so bad n sometimes i even wonder why i get so annoyed!!! U see i am very independant, i left home at 18 and am now a single mum of 2!! Since my ex left my dad thinks its his duty 2 take over when he is at my house now i dont have a man around! According to him my house is never clean enough, even though in my eyes its as clean as it can be with 2 kids. N everytime i do my decorarin he tells me he could have done it better! He is always criticising me n ive had enough of it! Link to post Share on other sites
HokeyReligions Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 Have you ever said something like this to him? "Dad, you always seem to criticize me and it hurts my feelings. I know you love me and want to help me and don't mean to hurt my feelings, but your words do hurt me. Please, let me ask you for help or advice before offering. You raised me to be independent, so let me BE independent. Don't worry, I still need you - but let me decide how and when I need your advice." If you still act like a child around your parents, they will continue to treat you like a child. Living on your own and having children is no guarantee of maturity. Link to post Share on other sites
tattoomytoe Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 do not invite him over, and tell him not to come over unless he is invited. Link to post Share on other sites
Author YummyMummy Posted January 5, 2005 Author Share Posted January 5, 2005 If only it was that easy!! Try telling him not to do something and he takes offence! he dont care how it makes me feel just as long as he can do what he wants! Ive even had to hide my bleach in my own house because he always bleaches everything when he comes over n when i need the bleach its all gone!!! I do not act immature around my parents n i dont recall claimin that i woz mature just because i had kids. I am just independant and theres a difference! Link to post Share on other sites
