Dad is coming back home

[gipsy danger]

so my dad is coming back home after a year. my mom left him because the guy she dated when she was 16 was getting out of prison. but that guy in prison got his sentence extended and she realized that she messed up a lot. and it was her fault. and she doing it for my little siblings because they are at the point where they act up constantly because of having lack of a father figure. i think it is a good idea but i honestly hate my dad for the reason he forced me into a religion when i hated the whole concept of it, he hated that i want tattoos and the fact that i got piercings and stuff in that. the only good thing he has done for me is buy me a guitar and everything else my mom got it for me... im sorry about this rant i kinda sidetrack... but when he comes back should i just try not to bother him. like i do my thing and he does his thing. i just dont wanna start a conflict with him. i been dealing with him being a dick for so long

So, she wants you guys to have a father figure...and instead brings a jerk?
Where's the father figure?

Sorry to say it, but parents don't get the right to shove their morals and ideals onto children who are at the level of being able to from them for themselves properly. And you're at that level.

So yes, avoid him. You two had a year a part, he doesn't get to vanish out of your lives them come back and parent. That's like a mother telling her 32 year old offspring to call the man she's just married last week, dad.
Give it some time, settle into the new life, and when things are calm and he's still pushing his idea of what your life should be on you, have a heart to heart. Tell him you're not the daughter he wants, and you respect what he does, you're old enough that it should be reciprocated. My wording is awful, and I apologize for that, so I hope you can grasp what it is I'm trying to say.
