He comes to my house everyday and I sit and listen to the same things over and over. No he was never THERE for me growing up really. I was scared of him when I was little because he was so mean sometimes. He wasn't the best dad is what I am trying to say and yet I have tried to be there for him now. If he would come visit and talk about normal things I wouldn't mind at all but it is the same thing all the time. Sometimes I think a parent shouldn't burden their kids with some things, and problems with him and my mom is one of them. I shouldn't have to be involved. Also he has, I have posted before, called me and cussed my mom to me. Calling her an SOB and all kinds of things before I hung up on him. I think he needs to act appropriately if he wants sympathy and respect from anyone. The reason I have been as good as I have so far is simply because he IS my dad.
Another thing, my dad knows I have and have had clinical depression since I was 16. Stress like this sets me off into depression. I take medicine for it. He knows I can't deal well with things like this and I fall apart easily yet he doesn't care.
