You listen hear young man, the last time my son talked to me like that, I grabbed him by the throat ,threw him into a closet, choked him pretty good. and that was just to get his attention. He came to his senses after he got his breath back and apologized like the man he should of been in the first place. My son was 30 at the time and now he shows me all of the respect in the world and means it. I love my son and it is the fathers responsibility to teach his son the way life should be lived. I brought him into this world and I can damn well take him out if he cant learn the meaning of respect. I think that you should stand up ,right now, walk away from that damn computer and go tell your dad to choke your neck so you can learn something.

There are times when you mess up that an apology is in order, and will suffice for the wrong doing. There are times when that can occur over the phone, however, this is not one of those times. You blew it. But the good news is that it wasn't a fatal blow to your relationship with your dad. I am happy that you wrote for answers on this because it indicates that you are truly sorry. Here's how to fix it.
Don't call your dad. Go over to where he is and walk up to him like a man. Tell him that you were way out of line and need to take a walk with him to discuss how he would suggest that you grow up and start treating people that you love with respect. Then take that walk with him.
It's hokey but it will tell your dad that you are serious and that you realize that you blew it. Plus the fact that you are looking for HIS advice on how to grow up and treat people with respect will make him feel proud that your recognize and respect his advice. Believe it or not, guys cry, guys hug guys and sons and dads forgive each other. It's your turn to learn this lesson then never forget it because someday you might have to use it on your own son. Good Luck

First off, discuss this with your dad.
Discuss it rationally, and not emotionally.
What ever it was, can be worked out, but, you will be sorry if you have a schism between your Dad, whom you obviously love, and yourself.
Money can be a terrible thing, to come between yourself and your dad, or the reason for it.
Make peace with him and you will be happy.
Be the "prodigial son" and come back and say your sorry, if you were the one that wronged him, and come back into the fold. You will be happy with your father on your side, for love and advice and all that, then with out him forever and miss him a lot, and have an empty spot in your heart, that he was there for you in every thing you ever did...
I wish you well..
Jesse

What's more important the money or your relationship with your dad? The only dad you'll ever have.
Hallmark doesn't make a card so you better suck it up, grow up, apologize and be ready for your relationship to be strained for a good long time.

Children are supposed to honor their parents.
Tell your dad that you made a mistake. Tell your dad that you apologize for saying those disrespectful words. Maybe, your dad will give you the money back if your words are heartfelt.

Tell him you are sorry for losing it and that you never meant to disrespect him like that. Explain your side without putting any blame on him. This might make him decide to give the money back.

He might understand that it's just one of those things that seem to happen between sons and fathers. Just sincerely say your sorry, but don't expect the money back. Treat him with respect and keep your cool.
