My dad likes to tell lies (not just once or twice)

Question

From 2nd grade to 5th grade, our school hosts a field trip but they let us choose to go on or not to. So, my dad signed me up with the reason that they told us that we have to (and that's why I hate field trips, tours, and even family trip). Another example, it was Saturday night, my dad wear casual clothes (T-shirt and jeans) and is going out (to have alcohol with his friends and utter bad words like when talking). I tried to stop him but he told me that he had some important works to do at the office. Ugh!!!!

Answer 1

I’m very sorry you are stuck in such a situation but you mustn’t take it lightly. What ever you do don’t agitate your father. If your father continues to make bad choices and ends up possibly even becoming a little crazy you may want to bring it up with your mom and maybe even consider living with your mom and visiting your dad once a while. It doesn’t sound like he’s prepared to be a father. Also offer to do things around the house once a while. Try not to get in trouble. But never lose who you are and remember your own goals. Remember to be a great father if you ever decide to have kids in the future
