Dads.. the good, the bad, the ugly
For everyone's information, I have a dad and I have a father. My dad is my step-dad and my father is my biological father. You get the picture. Well these two guys are important. If it wasn't for my father, I wouldn't be here.(Of course he did originally want me aborted) But that's about as important as he gets. He just started paying my child-support, and he still can't get that right. He owes me $300 from the beginning of the year. Yeah... I love him b/c I love all of God's creations and such (except bugs) and b/c well.. he's my father.
Now there's my dad. My dad is a pretty tall guy and is quite stong. He has the worst temper in the world and we've been in many fights. He occasionaly grabs me by the hair and once I tried to punch him and beat him up (yeah that didn't work), and oftenly when we fight, he screams at me and yells at the tops of his lungs. He can be a pretty scary guy. What I don't understand is why he yells. I mean, does he really think that by screaming at me, it's going to make me do what he wants? Quite on the contrary, it makes me want to do the opposite. What really sucks is that my mother finds out about the fight and then she makes me apoogize. Why should I apologize? I wasn't the one who did anything wrong (which is pretty much true, I will say I'm sorry when I'm wrong but when I'm not, I don't think so) Of course he never apologizes because he's dad, he's never wrong. But that tends to be the way most men are. Anyways... When will parents learn? Another thing that irritates me about my dad is how he never seems to pay attention and then when when I'm going to do something he wonders why he never heard about it. I freaking told him but he just tunes us all out. He won't admit that he does, but he does.
Though my dad may have some faults... he's still the best dad in the world and I would never trade him in for anyone else in the world. He may not be my biological father, but he's been there since I can remember. He walked and rocked me at night when I cried. He helped change me and teach me. When I got scared at night, he was the one who scared the monster away. He taught me to ride my bike, he taught me to drive (man was that an experience.. the whole screaming thing again). He was always there to listen when I needed someone to talk to, he listened to me complain about boys, any guy who might hurt my feelings he threatens with a shot-gun, he helps me with homework, buys me all I could ever want, supports me in all I do (even if he doesn't understand it), pays for my college education, and I know when that time comes he'll be there to walk me down the isle, help me move out, and do whatever necessary to make sure I like a full and happy life. He won't admit it, but my mother tells me when I finally move out and get married, he's going to cry like never before. I believe it. The other day I talked about moving out and before I could get a full sentence out, he snapped... "You aren't going anywhere and I don't want to hear about you moving out until you are a senior." hehehe.
Thanks Dad.. for all you've done, and all you're going to do. I love you.
