Dad Knows...

[OrphanPip]

Well, forgive me for saying this, but your father is a kind of a jerk. But most people are anyways. Most of the people you can choose to come out to will either not accept it or be overly supportive. A very small number will treat you in the erfect way. My advice would be to just go on on your own, the way you used to and try to avoid any interference with your father so long it concerns your sexuality.

I have to disagree. What I see in his father's behavior is a desire not to lose touch with his son, and to be involved in his life. I don't see how you can fault a parent for being supportive and helpful. He's doing what a parent is supposed to do, care about and try to protect his kids.

Pankakes should take what his father says with a grain of salt, he doesn't need his father looking over his shoulder. But at least he knows that if he ever needs his family they'll be there. Those overbearing responses are grating, but they make it clear how much people really care.
