My father was born in the 1950s and has a superiority complex. I know my father grew up in a poor background as a child and he had to work hard to get to where he is today, but honestly that doesn’t give him the right to look down on everyone. He always has these expectations that because he makes the most money (between my mom and him), that he doesn’t have to do his fair-share of housework or even take care of his personal hygiene. It embarrasses me to say this but he is at this point where he showers maybe twice a week (if we’re lucky), wears the same clothes everyday and when we ask him to take out the trash or do the dishes (which he is suppose to do in the first place), he starts throwing a TEMPER TANTRUM and storms out of the house. Honestly looking from an outsider’s point of view, my father resembles a 2 year old when they don’t get what they want. So who wants to live in a household where someone won’t take a shower, won’t clean up after their urine (so when you pee, you step in other people’s urine), and that will throw a temper tantrum when you tell them to clean up after themselves. At least have the common decency to think about the feelings of other people who have to live with you! Another thing that really upsetting about my father is all he cares about is money. In my life, my father never did anything (besides being a financial supporter) for me and my brother. I mean I guess that’s a way to show love, but my father has become so money-hungry he doesn’t realize all the other things he has in life. I mean money is essential,but it’s not the most important thing in the world! Lately, I have been trying to give my father advice from a third-person point of view, but he just gets mad the instant I point out the hard-core truth. I’m not trying to jab all these flaws at him, and I usually mind my own business, but it’s getting to the point where he’s not doing his duties as a MAN and he’s not even cleaning up after all the crap he does. Being clean is his choice, but at least for other people in the house, clean up after your urine, wash your hands, and clean up after your coffee spills! My brother is starting to take after my father, and the fact that these two fight EVERY single day, doesn’t help either. My father will keep pestering my brother to do HW, and my brother is also being stubborn and won’t listen to him. The worst thing about these fights are that my father will asks for advice from me and my mother and pester us untill we help him out. The hypocrisy of all this is that, when we help him, he goes against the advice we tell him. WHY ASK FOR HELP IF YOU’RE NOT GONNA LISTEN TO US ANYWAYS. I don’t want to say this but my family is no longer a family, but rather 4 people trying to live together under one roof. My father has basically given up on being a decent human being and just goes on the computer and demands us to do his bidding. I know some people will see this rant and think my problems are stupid, irrelevant, or not even problems. Yes, at least I have a father who will take care of me (financially), and there are people out there with problems worst then mine, but my father is the source of all the unhappiness in my life currently. I just want to conclude that it makes me sad to see the person my father has become. His bad flaws are starting to overtake his good ones and I use to confidently say that I respected and cared for my father, but at this point of time, I really can not stand my father. For someone who was so respectable to turn into some worthless piece of crap is really sad.
