Re: Advice on how to deal with my father
I have some food for thought for the OP:
Figure out how much your parents have spent on you since your birth. Find that amount of money however you can. Pay them back and then feel free to disown / divorce them and be on your merry way.
Until you can do that, hold your peace and make the best of the situation, without the intention of stabbing them in the back, like some folks are suggesting.
If your situation is bad, don’t make it worse by acting bratty and rude with your parents and inciting their anger.
While what your father did to you was excessive to an extreme when you physically insulted your mother, think about how much you hurt your parents with your bad, disrespectful behaviour, and thanklessness.
If you can’t bring yourself to be good to them then just do what I said above.
I’m not sure if this is the right post–coffeegirl seems to be respectful of her mother, even with negative feelings against her father and hasn’t physically assaulted her mother. Are you thinking of the “forced to move back to Pak” thread?
