Why can't I just prove myself?
Yesterday, my dad got me a lock, to lock up my bike, and then he asked why I wanted one so badly. I told him that I wanted to ride it to the library. He was a bit weird about it, and scared about the cars (since some parts of the road had no sidewalk), but he gave him.
Today, I actually rode my bike to the library and back. The thing is though, I came home with a tick (I got it off though). My dad then said, "That's what happens when you go outside. You bring ticks home." Now, he's upset (even though I got the tick off all on my own).
If it's not one thing, he has to make up something else to put me down. He's never supportive on anything I do. Everything that I do he points out something negative.
With my drawings, he asks, "why is the drawing so depressing? That's not healthy. Why not something more happy? Who asked you to draw this?" or "who told you to draw like this?"
I just can't do anything to please him, and prove to him that I can be responsible. It makes me upset and sad. I don't know what to do anymore.
