How do I deal with an unfair dad?

I feel like I have to fight to get my dad’s attention and it makes me feel very sad and angry. He married this woman who I feel very uncomfortable around because she always yells,cusses,and I feel like she does’nt accept me. I don’t go to my dad’s house because I get intimitated by her and my dad won’t visit me and rarely calls. His excuse for her yelling and cussing at me is that she can because she has 6 kids. I know a person who has the same amount of kids but doesnt act rude. what should I do in this situation- I love and miss my dad and want us to be close again and please don’t leave any comments that are mean or cold?

Answer #2

Tell him that. Call him and let it all out on him. Tell him that you want dose moments back and there when you are alone with him you can tell him about his girlfriend and what she is causing you to feel.

Answer #3

Hey, I know exactly what your going through, believe it or not, my real father gave up on me because his wife didn’t like my brother and me. He eventually gave up on me, and since me being the oldest I had to lie to my brother a lot. DON’T let that woman let it get to that point. She may have her nice moments, but that doesn’t mean she can yell at you when she wants. You do infact, have to keep respecting her, well, because you have too. Just let your father know that you don’t want to loose him, that you love him a lot, and that your happy he is happy. Just ask him to talk to her and have her show you respect like your doing for her. If you need anything else reguarding this, let me know. I’ve been through it all. :]

I think that you should think about all the things that make you feel the way you do about your dad. You should be able to give examples of this and how it hurts your feelings. Then, tell him you want to talk to him (if you can not say it, write it down). Tell him how and why you feel the way you feel. Just remember when you are telling him how you feel, try not to show any anger because this will spark the same feelings from him. If you remain calm, he will remain calm. If you feel yourself getting angry or upset just stop and tell him you can not talk about it until you calm down because you do not want to say anything while you are mad. Try to point out some postive things about this lady so that you dad will not think that you hate her all together. Good luck.
