    Default It's difficult to raise parents


    I am a daughter of my very domineering father. There are many things I want to teach my dad. I knew that he grew up the hard way and we are generations apart..Sometimes, it's difficult to make him see things my way...Often times, I appear to talk back to him but I was just trying to make my point. Can you suggest ways by which I could make him understand things without him getting offended?

    unfortunately there is not much you can do. as they always say, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks." it's indeed true, as i've experienced your dilemma myself.

    They are tired learning new things.

    But they are teachable but not like a child where they can accept instructions without any argument.

    sometimes learning should be taught the hardway and that means hurting them at times.

    Some father's are easy to love. Some dad's seem to be a terrific ideal and it is not difficult to honor them,Some father's are more difficult to love. They may not have been dependable. They may have left when you were young. Perhaps they were in the home, but not there at the same time.
    Regardless of what your relationship is like with your Father, what he has done, or what he has not done there is an overlying principle in Scripture that our Father is to be honored. "Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Honor your Father and Mother (which is the first commandment with a promise), so that it may be well with you, and that you may live long on the earth. ~Ephesians 6:1-3

    just show him that you love and respect him despite your differences..ma change lng jud na one day pag nakita nya how much you value him..

    having a good conversation just about anything under the sun would be a good start... it will develop to exchanging opinions and ideas... eventually you will be able to push some thoughts on certain topics without sounding as if your teaching him a thing or two...

    Ang problema brad kay "not open to any conversation" or the mind is not that open to accept new ideas, suggestions or recommendations. Moingon dayon, "sus, kahilas baya nimo, abi asensado kana, akoy pay imo sultihan". Ug sayup pah ako pagpadako ninyo, wata mo ron maing-ana"!
