My dad is freaking out, help?

Question

My dad just found out that the guy younger brother is on a date with is my friend and he is 19, and my brother 16. My dad is like freaking out, he thought that the guy was 16 or 17. What should I do? please help? should I maybe call my younger brother and warn him?

Answer 1

your brother should have known better but call him just in case your dad kills his b/f...actually his b/f should have known better....Call him....call him Now!!!!

Answer 2

NO dont call him, He deserves to get yelled at. He is too young for 19 year olds, yup.

Answer 3

Call him.

Don't let your brother get blindsided. Especially if you think he is having a good time. Coming home to an angry parent can ruin a lot.

It may worry him and could also ruin the date. Weigh the options and do what is best for your brother. Just think of how he would react in each situation (either you call him or just let him get it when he comes home) and which will be less painful.

Maybe even a quick text would be best.

Answer 4

call your brother, and as for dad, sit him down and explain to him that the guy he went out with is a friend of yours and that you have known him for 3 years. Tell him that he is a great guy and that he really cares about your brother and that the age difference isn't that big. that should help him relax.

Answer 5

Idk if my answer is to late but w.e Call him and tell him. Good Luck D:

Answer 6

huh?

Answer 7

This is something between your parents and younger brother. Is your dad upset because your brother was dishonest about the situation? If so, he will have to deal with the consequences when he comes back home.

You could call or send a text message to warn him, but your brother will still have to offer up an explanation. Since you say you've known this guy for years, try talking with your dad. That may help calm him down and soften the hit for your brother, as well. My guess is that it's going to take a while for your brother to regain your dad's trust after this.

Answer 8

Tell your younger brother what is going on.  Also try to calm your father and let him know that its only a two year difference.  Its illegal by law for this 19 year old to date a 16 year old.  However when you know this person, you really shouldnt make a big deal out of the 3 year age difference.  

That is my opinion.  You should definitely calm your father by telling him that its only 3 years age difference.   Maybe he is more upset about the g*y relationship?  In which case you will have more difficulty explaining the situation because if someone is not open minded about g*y relationships I dont think you can talk them into understanding.  That would take some time.

Answer 9

Definitely call him.  He deserves a heads up.  Hopefully your dad will cool down.

Answer 10

Call your brother, and talk to you dad about how happy you are your brother is dating your friend, and what a great guy he is. Dad might feel a bit better knowing you've 'vettoed' the date.

Answer 11

call him!

Answer 12

shouldve known better

Answer 13

As a good brother I would call him and warn him about your dad.

He's gonna get the lecture no matter what but it'd be nice for him to know.

Answer 14

yes dude call him now warm him so he can plan an explination

Answer 15

Who is "the guy"?

Answer 16

umm when i was 16 i dated a 19 year old....it was no big deal.

if u trust your friend, then u would let him date your brother, just keep a close eye on them.

if there is any problem then tell your brother to let u know.

i dont think the age difference is that big a deal and the fact that the guy is your friend and not sum total stranger is even better.

u could call your brother and tell him though i dont think he will mind.

i find it really tocuhing and nice for his dad to care though....thats really sweet. tell him not to worry abt it.

Answer 17

Is your Dad freaking out because your brother is g*y or becaue his boyfriend is 3 years older???

Answer 18

eeek i would call!
