Recently, my dad and I got into a fight. It was over my online boyfriend and he was trying to warn me his own insights on how he feels about it. I should have listened to him and agreed, and instead I found myself disagreeing and taking my boyfriends side. I know my dad has his reasons for worrying, especially since he doesn't know the guy and he doesn't understand like I do, but I feel horrible.
The fight led to my dad cutting off my AOL usage by putting me on parental controls and then making it so I can't email, IM, or chat. So I have to use AIM now and my dad said he wouldn't change it until I starting acting my age.
What can I do to make my dad trust me again? I want to send him an email through my other accounts on AIM, but would that be a bad idea? He said he'd call me later when he cools down, but I feel horrible. I want him to trust me again, and I want him to stop being mad. I know I made a mistake, and I want to fix it.
Thanks for your advice.Do you get into fights with your parents?
You need to sit and talk to him in person, from your heart. Writing a letter or sending an e-mail is the cowards way. Besides he will have the advantage of reading it the way he wants to take it instead of the way you intend it to be read.
Internet boyfriends are just that, Internet boyfriends. You have no idea who the real person is and what you are allowing yourself to be a part of. Anyone, let me repeat, anyone with common sense these days knows that on line dating and chatting is dangerous.
You have a father that cares enough about you to let you know he cares. Be grateful and wait for him to call and when he does ask him to come see you and talk with you in person.
