I didn't know anywhere to put this but me and my father's relationship isn't wat it used to...we still hangout and stuff like that ..but the communication level isn't thatt good.. My father and his father's communication was good neither.. What should i do because i don't want it to be a continueous cycle in the future. Anyone!!!

All I can suggest is to continue hanging out together, and doing stuff you both like to do, like sports or whatever. It's natural to grow more distant from your father as you get older, but if you keep talking to each other, it should help.

well, just try to relate to him.
its normal for teenagers to be distant with there parents.
but when your older, and theres no power stugle, things will get eaiser

all you got to is have love.
If he knows you love him and think he is a great dad, and you know he loves you etc, then you wont have any problems!
Just make sure you listen to eachother, do things he asks... it makes life easier and you will get on alot better :D

yeah...why do teens start to grow apart from there parents? Is it because we are becoming adults.. thats what i think...thats the issue with me. But when we get older like in our 20 30s we start to get closer again.. Anyboday

its a power struggle.
your parents are fighting to keep you under there rules etc.
your are fighting for more freedom.

that, and just think. we're right now being built up to become adults and we want to take things head on and we live with our parents each day and dont like them surveying our growing. so we kinda drift apart from them to be more independent. then when you're 20, 30's etc you arent around them as much and are much happier with their company. idk man, for ur father just try to do things together. remember, he's 50% of why u're alive so deep down im sure he'd like to be with you and just be closer together as a father and son. you could encourage that by maybe welcoming more of his ideas or maybe contributing to conversations he starts etc. all things that would build a bigger bond between you two
