I hate Father's Day - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Michael [hXc] · 06-20-2004, 08:57 AM

It really pisses me off. I hate seeing all of the TV commercials for ways to "honor your dad". My dad treats me like **** and expects me to stand there and take his insults and abuse. He doesn't realize that I have feelings too. He put my whole family through very much suffering and pain. Father's Day makes me sick.

And I hate the saying "Like father, like son". That's implying that the son should be an exact copy in all ways of his father. Some boys like me have a horrible father that they hate, so what good would it do to be like him? Plus father's day is just a day invented to sell greeting cards.

Sorry if I offended anyone, but thats how I feel.

I feel the same way.

They don't make cards that say "Happy Father's Day. You emotionally and mentally abused me my entire life, you made me not trust men, lowered my self esteem and caused me more grief in my life than you will ever know (not that you care).

You are one in a million and boy I'm lucky to have you".

Yah I'm not a big fan of this day either.

And somewhere out there I wonder if my kid's father, who has never seen her or made one iota of an effort to be part of her life, wonders what kind of father he might have been. i know what kind he is now - non existant. But does he think of this day?

I didn't and I won't. I barely have the money to get by as it is. I'm not wasting what little I might have on something so fake and phony.

Michael [hXc] · 06-20-2004, 09:47 AM

I will buy my dad a small card, nothing fancy, just enough so he won't tell his family what a disgrace to his side of the family I am

I will buy him the cheapest looking card at the store.

Don't criticize someone for how they feel unless you've been through it.

I know how he feels and I would never tell him it's not nice. You can't help how you feel towards someone who treats you like crap your entire life.

I can see your point. I am lucky to have a good dad who is still with my mom, after 17 years of marriage(next week).

I didn't get my dad anything either.

Bite my ass, it's a different situation.

And this Rurry person is what - 11?

I'm 33 years old. I've been around a bit more.

My grandmother and my father were mother and son. He treated me like **** my entire life, she treated me like I was gold. I miss her, I hate him.

Rurry is telling someone it's not nice to hate his dad. I think being a kid he has no idea what he's talking about. He doesn't know.

and that person was complaining about their grandmother being irritating and mean because she's old. I don't like my dad because he told me my entire life I was worthless, would never amount to anything and no man would ever want me. It has nothing to do with age. It's because he's a jackass.

You're completely contradicting yourself then. you didn't "know" their situation either.. you were just basing it off of your own experience. which is exactly what you're telling rurry not to do.
