Dear Father,
You are just like every other guy in my life. Never there when I need you, but always their to tell me how I do everything wrong. We never talk anymore, we just fight. Hell, we don't even try to talk anymore.
Every single time we have spoken to each other in the past few months has been nothing but curse words and ill meant thoughts. We do not like each other, and honestly I am okay with that. I just wish you would leave me alone to live my life.
I enjoy working both jobs, and nothing you can say will make my quit. I pay all of my own bills, and I give you money every month. I have no eaten at our house in weeks, yet I always do the dishes. How can you tell me repeatedly that I never do anything? How can you tell me I am going no where in life?
I think our best option is to stay away from each other. I do not like you, and I know you do not like me. If you weren't my biological father, I'd have nothing to do with you. I know it kills Mom to see us fight, so why not save her the heartache. I mean she is the only reason I live here, and the only reason you haven't kicked me out yet.
Dispite what you say I am a good person. I will not stand for the way you talk to me, and if you ever dare speak to my nephews the same way, I will take serious action. Those boys are beautiful and perfect. I love them with my whole heart, and I will stop at nothing to spare them from your wrath. Out of respect for you as my father, I give you that warning.
Please stay away from me and out of my life. I like nothing about you, and I want no part in your life. It has taken me 20 years to get the courage to stop this emotional abuse, and I promise you it will end now.
Your Daughter,
Emily
