What father kind hole~dirt.bike.racing.girl~ postedfor as long as i can remember, my dad has always been a jerk. his dad was even more of a jerk to him, and i guess that's all he knows or something... my dad was yelling at me the other day accusing me of being lazy because i, a 115 pound teenage girl, never changed the flat tire on my 125 cc dirt bike that's probably 3 times heavier than i am. so today i decided i was going to prove him wrong and fix the tire. i got a screw driver and a wrench and tried for so long to take the damn thing off and i probably could have done it if i was able to lift the bike onto a stand...i tried, it was just too heavy for me...so then when he comes home he just laughs at me because i wasn't able to do it. he really pisses me off sometimes and i don't know what to do about it...any suggestions? all i know is that i am NOT gonna treat my kids like he treats me or his dad treated him. Sponsored Link-------------------------- How-U-Doin repliedDad's are just humans and not many humans are perfect, so parents like people are not always going to meet up to our standards. The good thing is you can be a better person because of your dad's jerky ways. larianyla replied115 pounds? You weigh less than me (120 pounds). I doubt you're lazy. Good for you to grow in a different way than your father. Try to ignore if you can. It's you really can't, then you'd best go speak to somebody about this. Your mother, grandparents, a counselor. Someone you know and trust. Disco Bollsax repliedThat's the very best thing you can do ... to decide NOT to be like he was to you (and like his Dad was to him). Because you're not going to change anyone like that. My Dad was/is an @$$hole too. Novus repliedThis is rather minor case, but what you have here is a classic case of emotional abuse. If your dad gets any worse than this, (eg: calls you stupid, worthless, etc), then you should tell someone about the issue. I once had a father who crossed the line, and even turned to physical abuse. I didn't necessarily report it because someone else identified my situation. However, since then, my relationship with my father has been healing. If your father gets any worse than he is now, then tell someone about it. Trust me, it will save you so much pain in the future. loli repliedwow your dad is a jerk. don't let him treat you like that, just try and ignore him. but thats horrible the way he treats you. all you can learn from that is not to follow his ways, which sounds like what ur gonna do, which is great. don't let him get you down, people like that just get off by seeing other people fail, dont give him the satisfaction. goodluck!! hyperbrat repliedwhoa. well, just ignore him! btw 115 is not being lazy. its a healthy teenage weight unless he wants you to be anorexic or something. talk to your mom. she should sort it out!
