-7.5. I hate my father and this is the worst Christmas period I've ever had to endure. |

It sounds like he went hard core authoritarian. At least for the time being. This is just his maturity level. And nothing you can do or say can make him more mature, or it's such a long shot for any upside and too much immediate chance of downside. Maybe, he labasts and criticizes you and then rese... |

And yes, that's what I'm talking about, continuing to do positive stuff regardless of the situation at home. Congrats on your plans. :D I took a year off between high school and college but then people were critical of me. I like the idea of a "gap year" where it is socially accepted. Please rememb... |

You're very welcome. Glad I'm able to help, if only a little. Sounds a lot like my dad who is a "be righter" to the nth degree. To my dad, his being right is more important than my life going well, and that's just how he is. Maybe he's a little better now that I'm age 48 and he is (some quick math)... |

Or you might stop trying to carry on a conversation by opposition and find ways to agree, or even just nod silently. There are things that make my Dad blow up, so I don't bring them up. When he does or says something he knows will be offensive to me, I just look thoughtful for a while, and then cha... |

Okay, that's a big issue. Some parents can accept and even welcome their child becoming an adult, and some can't. At age 17, I would encourage you to start thinking, do you have a grandparent, Aunt, Uncle, older sibling? That you could live with in the one or two years between now and when you star... |
