The point is you have to put time into work to be a good provider (Most People) Point 2 is he will back off when he see's that Tyler is taking charge of his own life because that is the ultimate goal of a father for their kids. Im almost 40 & my dads 65 and I beleive the childs happiness and achievement greatly helps a fathers guilt for the fathers absence and wrong doings of the fathers younger years. This usually hits dads around 55. Not saying its wrong either. Fathers make mistakes.
Thanks for your posting. Too damn sad. I hate it when folks say they say "I know what you feel." Your feelings are your own. May your kids (and mine) realize your love!
When I was young and just starting out, I didn't make much money and had to work alot of hours to provide for my family. I regret not being with my family more, but you have to do what you have to do for your family. If your kids are smart they will understand when they get older.
I hear a lot of men of your generation express the feeling that they worked hard to provide material things for their kids as a substitute for spending time with them. BUT you have to look at things from the perspective of a person less than half your age. I didn't realize how the world worked until I was 24. Everyone has their own path to follow, people gain valuable life experience in their own way, their own time. At some point you have to let those you love make their own decisions.
You choose to give or not to give,not your children!if you choose to provide luxery item,s in return for your controll ,you are the blame not them,set them free and quit your bitching.
(truant007) well. I'm basically free. My parents don't care about me at all really. My mother hasn't been home in 49 days and my Father is in rehab, I have no siblings, but my parents always get me stuff when I ask for it. I asked for a new TV the other day and we're going shopping for it on sunday, so I don't really think it's control that this man is talking about, He just wants to be there for them
I understand where this man is coming from. Real responsibility is something teenagers just don't yet grasp, and sadly some never will. I respect the fact that he honestly wants what is best for his family. Someone HAS to be the "bad guy." Growing up for me it was always my mother, and Dad was more the "buddy." However without firm guidance and clear guidelines I wouldn't have become the man I am today. It's the kids that grow up without a frame of discipline that will always remain rebellious.
You should just cut your kid some slack. No offense, but making his life unfun is not your job. I'm sure he gets the responsibility thing by now. And if you really want him to have a good life when he goes on his own, as Dr. Phil says, the ones that are restricted the most as kids are the wildest and craziest when they get to college. :-)
(cvfddiver10) You don't come from a good family do you? You just basically said that all fathers lie and don't care for their kids. Thats pathetic, I know some really great fathers that wouldn't do things like that.
well,good video. i agree with you. my dad, just so happens to be the same way. i find it impossible that another man could be harder on his child than that of my father, tho. the only thing, tho, is the fact that since my dad is so strict on me, i fear im not fully prepared for college life, nor the real world. i wasnt allowed to make my own mistakes. i base lofe off of the ones my father made. idk if you are a good dad. but i know mine is. but, i wish he would let me grow...on my own
You can tell that this guy is really arrogant and takes himself way too seriously. I bet it is hard to be a good dad when you are a crappy person. I bet he is a HORRIBLE boss to have.
My parents used to say that too. I'm older than you and never said it to my child because I hated to hear it.

You have learned to fake sincerity quite well.
I would find a more private forum if I wanted to win over my kids. If however I wanted to win points, I would make a video for all to see.
