For the OP, you think your dad dose not give a whatever about you, ive got a teenage daughter I see contempt in her for asking her the smallest of things, like cleaning up after herself. You have to see that if you are in your dads care/house do the little things and dont be miserable about it. When you come to asking for bigger things like a few $ for whatever you want to do with a mate the goodwill from the little things you did and not acting like a little brittain character will keep things sweet. My daughter knows this and always comes back to civilisation after stepping out of line and acting like brat here and there, in short treat people including family the way you wish to be treated.

On the other hand if your dad is honestly in your face for no reason (not just reasons you think mean nothing) then you need to sort things out with him or go get help for a permenant place to stay.

Like the other poster said, if you cant take responsability for chores and rules and that is why you dont get on with your dad, the army is no place for you, you will get eaten alive in basic.

And one more thing, I dont want my son in the army either and ill do my best to keep him out but if he dose go in, ill support him.

Joining the Army...Emotional baggage is something you don't want to take into training with you or into your eventual battalion/regiment. It'll fester inside of you and you'll become seriously depressed...don't want to be breaking down in the middle of a firefight in Afgan!

I would consider ringing up your recruiter, explaining your situation and ask them to put your start date back, not forward. Then ring up one of those many charities that can held you deal with the situation, get yourself sorted BEFORE you start your training.

Interesting thread.

I skipped the last page but the advice given seems pretty sound but did he hit him or is it assumed as I kind of got mixed up.

if he did why?

I'm in a bit of a boggle!?!?!

if you cant respect discipline at home, your sound like the sort of person the army doesnt need.

i turn 18 in 11 days my dad went crazy at me so he got what he deserved. thats basicly it.

Or maybe the army is exactly what he needs to kick him into shape... assuming he does have a problem with respect that is.

Because he is 17 years old not 7 would you let your mum beat you when you was 17 i had left home by then ffs.

So you would just have hit your mum then?, and whats wrong with being at home past 17?, a lot of things put people at home at that age, taking 'A' levels to go to uni, college course's, simple lack of money to have your own place

 

[Knubje]

This thread still going?

Dear lord...

Good for you. Not everyone has that option. It still doesn't make physical abuse of a child funny.

No i would grow some and leave home.

and whats wrong with being at home past 17?, a

Nothing wrong with still being at home after seventeen but if your open too abuse then leave same as a women being beaten by a partner simple leave,you have to give up things like uni and such like thats life.

Not everybody is in the position to. The 17 year olds I know wouldn't survive a day on their own.

Lazier, I'd say. I've always been mature for my age and trust me, people my age make me feel sick with the way they live sometimes.
