So. Without trauma dumping, I’ll simply say my dad is a bad dad. What’s a father’s day gift that says “you’re dead to me, but I’m still doing things to keep drama at bay”?

    It’s more that I’m just giving my mom a bit of time to deal with a big crisis in her life before I rip the bandaid off and go mostly no-contact with my dad. He really weaponizes my mom’s emotions, so I’m doing this more for her than for him.

    But yeah, he’s a classic narcissistic parent. If I actually told him how I felt, he would spend the rest of his life being the victim.

      Do we share the same Dad lol.

      Whatever you do, just make sure you don’t compromise your integrity. Take care chief.
