My dad is so embarrassing and treats me like a child! What should I do?
So, I recently discovered where my mom lives, and I told my dad that I wanted to contact her, but he said he didn’t want me to because he has full custody until I turn eighteen. So, I decided to try and visit her on my own. I was out with my dad at Target and I told him I was going to look at the clothes, but snuck off to the subway station to try and buy a ticket to the airport. I guess he knew where I was going, though, because he came and found me at the subway station, started yelling at me in front of everybody about how I couldn’t go visit my mom on my own and how I was acting like a child when running off, and that since I was acting like a child, he was going to treat me like one. He dragged me away and back to his car. He put me in the back seat and child locked the door so I couldn’t sneak off, again! He’s treating me like a child, and it’s not fair! He won’t let me do anything on my own! What should I do?
Well he probably has very good reason to be protecting you like that. There is something much deeper than him “treating you like a child” going on.
Honestly, you’re acting like a child. If your dad doesn’t want you seeing your mother, instead of trying to sneak off, try talking to him about in in a mature way. Otherwise, he’s going to keep treating you the way you’re acting.
you should have asked him about things and told him you would really like to see your mother and let him tell you why you should or should not see her instead of sneaking around behind his back trying to do your own thing, kids sneak around trying to get their way, adults talk about things and decide things.
Act like a child and you will be treated like one, what’s so unfair about that?
kinda sounds like maybe hes trying to protect you from her…. there has to be a reason he has full custody if she care enough dont you think shed try harder? dont you think shed try harder to see you? im not saying she dosent care but i think hes trying to protect you….. and my dad has full custody well im 19 now but when i was younger i would visit my mom every other weekend like im sure theres visiting rights arent there? and you were kinda acting childish like running off is what a kid would do because they dident get there way like try to respect the fact that he said no…. you cant always get your way… maybe ask him if you can write to her or maybe see her when hes there with you..
