Help My Dad Just Left

My dad just left the house?

He'll come home. Something is eating on him. Maybe something happened at work or somewhere, or maybe he ran into someone that opened painful memories or who was so wildly successful it made him feel bad about his life & what he's accomplished. You & your brother caught the brunt of whatever it was, even though it has ptobably got nothing to do with you.

You more than likely can't do much about whatever caused his outburst. But you CAN listen up for him to return or catch him tomorrow sometime. He'll probably be ashamed or apologetic. Just tell him--because he's hurting and needs to hear to hear it--that you don't know what's wrong, what's eating on him, but you hope he can get it back in perspective BECAUSE when he's really off center, it is like an earthquake in your life. Then do tell him that you love him way too much to not hurt when you know he's hurting and ask if there's anything you can do.

My parents are gone now, and when my mom died, I realized how important it is to let the people you love know that you do. It isn't corny or dumb. I love you is almost always a good phrase to toss at a parent, so you'll never regret it. In fact, I learned, looking back, that the only I love you's I've ever regretted were the ones I didn't say.

Hope this helps. But he'll be home.

My dad just left my mom and us for another woman. How do I get through this pain and make my mom happy and be strong for my siblings?

It isn’t your job to make anyone happy. Your mom and siblings need your support but not to make them happy - they need you to pitch in and get things done, perhaps work to pay bills, perhaps show them your strength by taking care of them when needed and doing things that need to be done without asking.Your parents are people. Your dad decided he wanted someone other than your mom. She’ll deal with it. He is still your dad and people make mistakes. Be open to accepting him along with his frailties and mistakes. And be ready to help your mom deal with the pain by just being there and doing things she wants done.

My dad has full custody. Help?

2 years ago my mom and dad got a divorce and my dad got full custody of me. I'm 17 now, turn 18 in June, and things have gotten really bad with me and my dad the past year and I'm ready to go live with my mom. If I just left and told him I was going to live with my mom, could I legally do that? Even thought he has full custody?

My dad just left us and its all my fault?

I was trying to go downstairs into my basement and my dad was right behind me but my dog was sitting at the top of the steps and I was trying to get her to move and my dad grabbed my shoulder, threw me to the side because he wanted to watch the football game. Nothing like that had ever happened to me and it scared me so I started bawling and told my mom who went to my dad and FREAKED OUT and he just wouldn't admit he did anything wrong and they got in a huge fight and he packed a suitcase and just left. He didn't hurt me physically at all I was just so shocked and hurt that he would actually do that and then when he kept saying he didn't do anything and basically called me a liar hurt me but I don't want to tear apart my family and now I just feel horrible and I know I was overly sensitive and I just feel awful because I know it was all my fault

My dad just left my mom. How do I comfort my mom and not get depressed myself?

Just do the best you can and dont be depressed. Many kids have to face this crisis but a lot of the aftermath can be alleviated by how mature the parents are about life. My children had to face that moment but I reassured them that my financial and parental support would still be with them although we were apart.I told them that their school fees would still be paid by me through university and I would always be there for them. My wife followed the same agenda she would call me up and say that she was going to visit my son at boarding school and would I like to go with her to present a united front at school to the other children. My sons house master complimented us by saying that we had acted so responsibly for the sake of my son. He said that when parents are divorcing and they come on visitors day the Mother stands on one side and the Father on the other side and the poor child has to shuttle between them as they are not speaking to each other. Just recently my son who is now 60 years of age 35 years out of University and a successful man. He told me about some friends of his who are going through a divorce and the husband is going to stop paying University fees for his daughter out of spite. Does that make sense?. My son is happily married and his children have the full support of their parents because they had a good example set for them.So if its any help just look at how maturely your parents face this crisis. You did not ask to be here they owe you as much stability as they can provide and more.

I am Sad Because My Dad Left My House.?

I'm so sorry for your loss...

My friend's dad has just recently died. What can I do to help and support her?

Thank you for being such a great friend. The best thing you can do is to let you know you care about her and want to be there for her. Let her know that it's ok for her to grieve. Resist the urge to tell her you understand unless you have also been throigh exactly the same thing. It's hard to see a friend hurting but try to resist the urge to change her feelings. Often when people say or do things to cheer someone up they are really trying to make themselves feel more comfortable. It's actually better to let her know that you don't know what to say or do but that you want to be a good friend to her and to ask her what would be helpful. You might suggest you are happy to listen to her talk about or if she prefers not to talk about it and just do normal friend stuff. Leave it up to her . I’m a former hospice chaplain and my mentor used to say to me “"don't do anything, just be there.”
