Awesome Day With My Dad...

[AmericanRobster]

I just got home from riding and spending time with my Dad. We both went to Croom today so I could let my Dad ride my ATV. He loved it so much that he wants to buy one soon so he can ride it at least once a month a Croom.

I hope that everyone had a great Father's Day.

I wish i could say the same .lately it seems like he hates me.He came back at exactly 12:11 from his girlfriends dads house.He buys all the food for 100+ ppl,Buys her dad an excersice bike machine,cooks,and comes back and brings me half bitten leftovers.So we obviously get in a fight and he tried hitting me(He never really has before) and I dodged it and pushed him hard as hell.Hes 47 and shes 25(Midlife crisis).I hate her guts

 Banshee,  You need to have a heart to heart with your Father and tell him how you feel as calmly as possible. Your Father is 47, I lost my Father @ 54 and I would give allot just to spend one more day with him. Respect him and share your feelings with him, life is too short to have these feelings.Your father loves you I am sure, he is just being a little selfish right now...as I am sure you have had times where your friends came first. Pray about it!! Let us know how it works out,,,good luck.

Glad to hear it!!! I cant wait to ride with Colton (my 2 year old)....THis post is what Fathers Day is all about, thank you for sharing.

   Don't feel bad Banshee. My abusive Dad left when I was 8 and stuck me in a Foster home. Your new purpose in life is to make your own family and be a better Dad than he is. If that's how he is, you don't need him.
   Anyone can make Babies, it takes a real man to be a Father!!

  Glad you had a good time Rob, hope he does get a quad.

I have been where you are right now.  Just hang in there and keep trying to talk to your dad about quality family time with you and your sister, whether his girlfriend is around or not.  Praying about is another good thing.  No excuses for your dad, but he has needs too and probably feels as much hurt as you do.  My mom left my dad and I when I was 8, so I have been down the road you are going on now.  I reunited with my mom when I was 26 years old and forgave her for her poor decisions.  Keep your head and pray, things will come around.

I think you guys are right,his dad is being a little selfish right now,but,i think the best comment is to when you have your own family you make sure that you make your children your first priority.I went through the same thing with my dad and his girrlfreinds and their family-now i spend every bit of time i can with my son because i do not want him to grow up hating me as mmuch as i was mad at my dad.We have since cleared things up and we can talk now and i think he realizes the problem though he is not rready to fix or own up to asll of it yet,pparents are not perfect and some of the thingss that the kids do not see their family stressing overr to make surre you cxan ride,eat and get dressed underr the same roof every day can take a tole and you might feel like being selfish for a little while!

Just my 2 cents and hope it helps,i am damn pproud of my son and would not change anything at all!!!

  I hope you can come to terms and be able to carry on a 2 way conversation with your dad......... I was fortunate to have mine for 51 years he died last year on fathers day at age 90.  ............and i would give anything to be able to spend times with him again... ..................

I hope something works out with your dad.

I had a sad fathers day.  The first one I've ever spent without my dad...he passed away a few months ago.  It really sucks, and I'm still only 19, fathers day was such a huge day for us because my dad was such an awesome dad.

Well I can tell you that my dad left my mom and I when I was 18 for a woman that's ten years older than I am.  I was very bitter for awhile.  He lived 12 hrs away and paid for one ticket for me to go see him.  To this day I can not talk to him because he doesn't listen.  Fortunately, I found out quickly that my new step mom (yes he married her w/in a year of leaving us), is a great woman.  I have hardly received anything more than a card from him for bday's and xmas for the last 15yrs.  He doesn't even write on the card or sign it, my step mom does all that.  I seen him twice in 8 yrs, I get a visit about every 4 yrs and only when he has business down here.  If he spends 6 hrs at my house on a visit that's about as good as it gets.  I wish things could be different because one day he'll be gone.  And despite the fact that he's a SOB that abandoned his family and only child for a new family w/ no kids, I will miss him.  I've tried everything I can do to repair the relationship but after 15yrs of beating my head against a brick wall and getting shut down I got tired of it.  Pray for the ability to forgive him, try your best to talk it out, and do your best to not repeat the pattern in your future.

that sucks. keep trying to talk to him and maybe he'll see what a jerk he has been and you can work things out. i hope all turns out well.

[mudmonkey]

i hope my dad had a good father's day! we didnt go riding or anything  but we went swimming just about all day, and then had a cookout! so it was cool. And he got some awesome shirts from me and my mom  lol
Banshee.. all i can really say is to hang in there, and it will get better over time. Keep trying to talk to him and spend alot of time with your sister, b/c if ur dad is still being a jerk, then u and ur sis need each other.
