Always arguing with dad...

[glacier]

As the title say's I just keep having really bad argument's with my dad he calls me a disappointment and that Im a waste of space after the argument he tries to apologise but just ends up criticising me even more. My whole family and me are strong christian's but I feel my whole family is over protective and optimistic. My dad say's Im really selfish, when we don't even really talk anymore and he doesn't even know me anymore when Im out of the house I always put others first because it's the christian thing to do but no one ever puts me first so I am always pretty annoyed when I get home and that's when I start arguing with my dad also my grades suck and Im stupid when my dad thinks Im really clever just because of one stupid iq test help.

trust me.. i know your situation. i do the same. and my dad does the same. best you can do is go to your happy place, and let him yell and critize. but if you can't, do your best not to fight back, and try to talk to him in a very friendly voice.

thats crap man. no one deserves to be called down everyday. just try your best to stay away from the house. maybe hang out with your friends. and do your best to just show him up. if i were in that situation i'd just study my ass off and the next time he tried calling me stupid just show him my new grades. i dunno hope that helps? thats just a crap situation bud. good luck

staying away usually makes it worse.
