What the heck is this about?

Answer 1

It may be because you don't wanna do anything wrong to make your father think bad of you and you want him to continue to be proud of you. It also could be that he much more stricker than your mom. It's hard to say when we don't really know your father personality.  

Answer 2

WoW you sound crazy !!! Are you sure you're not mentally ill or something ?? go get help geeezz

Answer 3

i felt the SAME way growing up. It started when I was about 13. And I didn't want my dad to come home. I almost feared him sometimes. It was weird. Weird. But then my mom and him divorced and he really left. It was awful. But I don't know why I felt that way.  

Answer 4

I know how you're feeling. I oddly feel this way too, sometimes!

I think you may just be going through an awkward stage with your dad, since you are growing and have hormonal stuff and may keep more things to yourself. I know I'm like this a lot.

Answer 5

Ha ha, does he not let you do something?

Answer 6

I would venture to say that you are feeling resentment.  This is very typical for a teenager to feel this way about his/her parent, if they are often working long hours or away on business often.  Maybe you desire more of your dad's attention and while wanting to please him, you want to be away/reject him at times to deal with your resentment.  Just keep in mind that you will grow up so fast, and then your parents really may not be close to you anymore.  Enjoy their presence while you can.
