I use to think my son hated me, we couldn't seem to communicate and had all sorts of problems.
First thing - just because we are parent's doesn't mean we know everything or that we know how to deal with everything, we will make mistakes. Try to understand that your father is trying to reach you and just doesn't know how. It gets very frustrating when you love someone as much as most parents love their children and you just can't seem to get through to them.
Talk to your dad and be willing to listen to him. Teenagers, and I'm assuming you fall into this catagory, tend to live busy lives with after school activities and their friends. As teens grow older they need their parents less and tend to spend less time with them. It's nothing intentional it's just the way it is. However, it is obvious that you want to mend this problem, so I suggest making time for your dad. Set aside a certain evening or whatever is convenient for both of you to spend some quality time together once a week. You will be surprised how much you will grow together rather than apart. Yet you will still have time for all your other activities and friends.

I went through the same thing with my father when I was in high school. I realized later that even though I loved my father I did not always show him or my mother a great deal of respect. I was much to busy in my own little world to realize that I was not paying enough attention to my family.
Your father might be nagging you about it to get your attention about something. The reason my father bothered me was because he was trying to get me to notice that my mother was very sick with cancer and they had just found out.
Your father might be trying to do something similar without coming right and saying it because it might be to hard for him.

specifically, what is he getting on your case about? is he trying to manipulate your behavior by assigning guilt? talk to him and get to the meat of this issue. bringing emotion into a dispute clouds the real issue. ask him exactly what he expects of you.
as for what you can do... be more responsible ... keep your room clean or at least picked up and help around the house with chores .. if you agree to do a task, dont put it off or forget. .... keep your word unless someone is being harmed by your silence
emotional manipulation is mental abuse ... stick to the issue

How do you treat your father? he has to got the feeling from some where. Actions speak louder than words

Show him that you care more often. Try to do special things for him, perhaps your actions are different than yours thoughts right now?
