How do I deal with my annoying Dad?

My dad drives me crazy. He yells at me all the time for stuff I dont do and if im not like my older sister or brother I get in trouble. just now he yelled at me for comming down stairs after my neice threw a bottle of lotion at my head and I told her to go upstairs. he constantly says bad things about my friends like “the only reason you dont 2 beat sarah in long jump is because your afraid she wont b your friend anymore” what do I do?

Answer #1

he sounds like he could be abusive I say talk 2 him maybe he’ll understand or give him the cold shoulder

Answer #2

My mom used to yell at me a lot when I was younger we used to go days without talking to each other, now where best friends just wait it out maybe one day you will have a better relationship with him. I used to threaten my mom I would call child services, lol.

Answer #3

I think you should go to your schools councler about this my friends mom was screaming at her and hit her a few times and she went to a school guidance councler and they had DSS (department of social services)get involved and they had to go to family councling and now there family is a lot less angry at echother and kinder to echother

Answer #4

I don’t know why fathers do that. Mine does that too. It’s like you dont do anything, but yet you did. you cant do anything right, no matter what. Yet mty brother is calling me a bh or a whe infront of him, and beats me up and my dad sits there and laughs and doesnt say anything. But guess what my dad says when I confront him…you shouldnt of been near him , nice eh? you’re not alone.

Answer #5

Stand up for yourself. Thats what I do. If he blames you again just say “Dad, I didnt do! Just get over yourself and stop blaming me for your problems” That will work. Like my mom says “Stand up for yourself, and everything will work.

Answer #6

ok well ma look ignore him!! my dad doesnt do that to me b/c im a b*h towards him! but my friends step dad does that to her and she ignores him all the time! you should talk to your mom bout it!!

Answer #7

this is exactly what had happened with my dad this whole winter break. but I ignored him at first, that didnt help much. then I found out one of his customers’ checks bounced. I’m not bragging AT ALL, but my dad is rich so he got over it and now he seems nicer. please anyone dont think im bragging lol. anyways, so I think he was taking his anger out on me and when I made a little mistake he emphasized it out of anger and frustration. anyways, maybe your dad is going through something you just don’t know about. he might be searching for a closer relationship with you by trying to be mean to you to get your attention. either way, you should talk to him about it as awkward as that might be. (: good luck!

Answer #8

when he yells at you just say very calmly, “Dad, please will you stop yelling at me, it makes me feel as if I don’t matter” or something along those lines. I used to have to put up with the same crap from my mother. But if that dosen’t work. Try to explain to him, that he has no right to yell at you for something that can be solved. Not just dealt with by saying “your grounded, the end”. If you need any help, it’s not that hard to find me.

Answer #9

I kinda have the same problem. It sounds like he is verbally abusive.

Answer #10

Your dad is just like my dad. That always happens to me too. I don’t know how to deal with him either. SO I don’t know but try to ignore him

Answer #11

well you could ignore him thats what I used to do with my dad…and not like its any of my business but has he gone through something traumatic lately?

Answer #12

I do talk 2 my mom about it and he yells at her 2..but we deal wit it but it still sucks..

Answer #13

Growing up is very difficult—for both you and your parents. They remember a little bundle of joy that they held and nurtured as a baby and now they see a budding adult. These days, children face things and know about things that their parents would never have imagined at the same age. The teenagers of today look older, act older and want to be older than their counterparts did just 20 years ago. It is the desire of all parents for their children grow up in the way that they should go (loving, caring, respectful, and being of good solid character). It is necessary that you truly understand that your parents have your best interests at heart. They will withhold privileges, set limits, and raise you to the best of their ability (neither they nor you are perfect), but be Thankful - They Care - many, many, many don’t. Ask them for guidance and seek to understand what truly motivates their decisions. One of the best ways to prove your maturity and prove that you are ready for more trust is to be respectful of your parent’s wishes and accept their guidance. Learn how to communicate love, honor, and respect to each other.
