  • I said I was a child(as legally I still am), NOT childish. It's not the same thing.

    So I suppose you know everything about every family because you're older, huh? Look I'm not suggesting I have it the worst, I realise and am grateful for what I have. All I was wondering was if it was normal for a daughter and dad to have this relationship. Of course I wouldn't call Social Services, he is in no way abusing me.
    And like I said, I never asked anybody to tell me what they thought of me (because it is irrelevant to my post), quite frankly you can shove your patronising, hurtful opinions of me wherever you wanna, because I only asked whether or not it is normal for a father/daughter relationship to be like this.

    • Of course it's normal.

      Teenagers are hormonal and are finding their feet. They test out how much abuse their own family will take before they take it outside to the real world. I didn't mean to hurt or upset you, just tried to make you think of the situation from his side - and that was only coz I was feeling generous that day as I was frustrated with my own teen harping on. Nor do I want you to upset your mum or wear her down any further.

      I wish someone had told me about Social Services coz my dad used to beat me up and my mother used to hit us with a dog's choke chain and is still a rotten nasty bitch to this day, in her 70s. My dad died last year but I officially left home the day I turned 18 - though I was out living in derelict houses before that.

      Try your best to get on with them - even if some of their rules seem silly and be grateful that they are good parents, and you didn't have mine :o)

      Bite your tongue as you nod and smile and give him a hug.

      Good luck to you pet.

      • I'm sorry about your parents, that sounds horrible.

        Thank you.
