Family Problems

Have you ever wondered why dads are so bossy? Like my dad's so bossy even though I'm like 23...He can be a handful. And doesn't seem to care about how I feel about stressful situations. he yells at me and always blame me for his anger. which I know it's his choice to be anger or happy/.😔
It's what they think they have to be , assertive like a pillar . It's what growing up in a patriarchal family dynamic does and a patriarchal society. I do sympathize with them in that they almost always believe they have to be the problem solver/provider ,in control of everything etc. It sounds like he doesn't know how to communicate his emotions in a way that's effective and healthy so he ends up frustrated at everything

He wants to ensure you are ok and takes responsibility for you.

@PepsiColaP I admit it is seen as patriarchal but it is ingrained

@PepsiColaP and at heart yes I do feel men should take care of their daughters and wives 🤷‍♂️
@InstructHer I think people who love each other ,regardless of their gender or the gender of the other person ,look out for each other's wellbeing . But part of that is also letting them learn to be responsible for themselves

Not all fathers are «abusif « It depends on their character and especially how they were brought up and educated
It’s something visible in many different walks of life unfortunately and there are also mothers too

I am not going to judge you and your situation, or your father. What I suggest is that you consider you are your own person with God-given abilities. Leverage those and work your way into becoming emotionally independent of him (or anyone for that matter). Only he is responsible for his emotions and his anger. You are not. You are only responsible for your emotions and feelings. Maybe seek out others outside of family who are capable of being more supportive, and can help you handle your stressful situations. Just my opinion anyway. Good luck!

My father wasn't bossy. It was mother who did the shouting.
