i woke up today morning, and my dad asked me for black construction paper, i was half asleep but i got up and showed him all the paper i had. he got mad and said he wanted hard paper, not the soft junk. i insisted that i didn't have any- i used to but i was dead sure it was over. he insisted i open my art drawer and look i did, with him standing over me. didn't find any. he called me a liar and said i was hiding it and didn't trust me. so he went through my room opening all the cupboards and drawers- which included some of my personal stuff (like tampons, etc) i kept asking him to stop but he wouldn't.
later when i told him i didn't like the fact that he went through my things, i said there were some boundries i'd like to keep. (before we had this fight about no locking doors in the house) so i said that since i had stopped locking my door, i would really appreciate that he respect me and my space. he told me it was his hosue and he had his rules and he could do ... cont.
could do whatever the $%^& he felt like.
by this point i really had no energy to fight so i left the house to go workout.
what do you think i should do?
because i understand that he is the parent and has authority, but at the same time, there are some things that are personal. im not hiding anything, just i wouldn't want people to be able to see everything personal... you know? ahh well whatever i'm so tired at this point i really don't feel up to doing anything.
shoot and now he says he's taking away my flashdrive and plug point adapter. and i live in a place where you need adapters for any electrical appliance to work.
aw man i swear i didn't have any paper. f*** i was making a movie, and now i can't work on it without the electricity.
i'm so helpless, i really don't know what to do. i just feel like giving up
he said he used to trust me and now he doesn't.
sh*t but i don't know why. it's not me, i don't know what's wrong with me... i'm not being mean or ignoring him as he says its just sometimes i fell like i don't have the strength to carry on even the simplest things like carrying on a conversation, and i don't know what to do.
f***

Seems like your dad has some trust issues.......he should really respect your space.......but saying that, it is his house and as you siad yourself he can do whatever the **** he wants. I wouldn´t like my parents going through my stuff!!

Usually I would be on the parents side of this argument but what your dad did was seriously messed up. If you said that you didn't have any paper then that should have been the end of it. It's not like you would have any reason to lie about it it's friggin construction paper not only was that wrong but looking thru your personal stuff unless he had reason to believe that you were on drugs sexually active or something else like that there is no reason he should look thru your stuff like that. Is your mom still in your life you need to get together with your family and seriously talk this out because that is just not rights.
