Topic	My dad's threatening to kill himself bc none of his children talk to him
Kisai 06/21/20 6:16:14 PM #32:	Harpie posted... It makes things complicated now that hes suicidal though. No it doesn't. It wasn't your fault that he started drinking, it wasn't your fault that he abused you, and it won't be your fault if he kills himself. It'll be his fault. His actions led him to this situation. If he didn't care about any of you guys back then, why would that change now? He's still acting selfishly. I don't see any, "How are my children doing, are you guys going okay? Are you safe?" it's, "Give me attention or I'll kill myself." If he doesn't care about you, you don't have to care about him. Sansoldier posted... Even if it's not for him, communicating some of your true feelings could very well help yourself. I kind of agree with this. Your words won't reach him. You won't be able to change him. But my dad died, and to this day, I still kind of wish I could lay into him for all the things he did. I never once talked back to him. It's too late now, though. Don't let all your frustration continue to be bottled up. gunplagirl posted... If he decides to kill himself, it wouldn't be your fault. Oh. I guess someone beat me to that. --- WHO MODS THE MODERATORS? <cite>Kisai posted [p:941035774] in My dad'...
