I was in this situation a few years ago. but my dad was dealing too. I called secret witness and he was arrested, he went to jail but he got clean and forgave me turning him in because he realized I did it cause I love him. Good luck kid!

He is the one who has to want to stop, and then do so.
If he does not respond to your pleas, then ultimately he cares more for the drug than anything else.
I would suggest you either find a way to bust him and get him in to treatment (again?) or through an intervention, or if you feel that all hope is lost and he is dragging you down, find another place to live.
Leave him, and don't look back until he has been clean and sober for at least a year.
That won't be easy, but you have to take care of yourself too.

It became a very unhappy tale. Cake hit all-time low with drug habit etc., yet did have the ability to tutor herself around.

If your father wants to stop using drugs he will. I am sure he knows there are many facilities that would be able to assist him with that goal of being drug-free.

Sweetie, my hard goes out to you!! The hard cold truth is that if your Dad isn't ready to stop, there is nothing that you can do.
I realize that the powerlessness that you feel is miserable, but just learn from his doings and follow your own path.

Tell him that you're very afraid he won't be around much longer. Tell him you love him very much and couldn't imagine life without him.
