My grandma is 70 years old and we had our first fight EVER because the woman literally broke her back and she wanted to leave for Florida like 2 days after her surgery. I told her she needs to stay home and recover because her heart flat lined while in surgery and she almost died. So after our argument I felt like such a piece of shit for raising my voice at her. We literally hugged it out and forgave each other so I identify with this post.
That's good:) i like that it's fun to be best friends with your mom and just have fun every once in a while. Hope you and your family lives happily ever after, friend:) :) :) <3

Aww. Thanks for that. I hope you and your family have good relations. But to be fair, Me and my family had to go through terrible grief before we realized the value of family.
samesamesame or if he was a SOOPER asshole then he'd apologize and act like everything is fine, or try and throw money/shopping at me to fix it (which i'm not even complaining about necessarily lmao). He doesn't do it anymore because he's calmed down and become more reasonable and we've become closer, but god do I know the feel.
Rte,I have a suggestion for you: find something that you and your dad both enjoy. Maybe you and your dad like the same music? Show him new music from that artist/band. Maybe you both like certain activities? Find a way to pursue those activities and get him to come along. If he likes something that you don't,try and pretend to enjoy it for him. Find your own way(s) of bonding with him so that things can improve.
Oookay then..he sounds fucking delusional. But if you still want to bond with him,show him Steam Powered Giraffe. Their music is far from being emo,but far from being pop. Their music has greatly helped me bond with my dad,so maybe it'll help you bond with yours.
I have had this happen a couple times with my four kids, and I noticed something. When I had given an excessive punishment or gave an event the worse construction than warranted, my kid DIDN'T smart off to me or give me the "you're so unfair, treat me like a slave, my life is the worst ever" treatment. I gave the situation some thought and then realized that I had a part in the disagreement or whatever, but did not have to also deal with disrespectfulness or stupidity (my life is terrible even though I live and eat for free and have a car at my disposal that also doesn't cost me anything).
The bottom line is this: Let your parent arrive at the right decision rather than make the situation worse with "stereotypical teenage rants."
