My birthhday is on saturday October 21.. And I want to go to Knott's Halloween Haunt on friday October 20th. My dad said he wouldnb't pay ( He said he doesn't think my birthday's that important.) I asked what if my mom bought the tickets he said fine.. So i called her and She was going to buy them for me and bring them to me at school on friday afternoon. But my dad said no I told him that she was paying he said no. I said that's all I want to do for my birthday. and he said your not doing anything because he trhinks I'm always being rude to hi. THAT'S not my problem. because he thinks that he's th eshit because he's the man of th ehouse of 14 people we live with. He won't do anything for my birthday but after I had to call my mom and cancle what I've been waiting for ALL year I ran in th ebathroom and cried for about 30 minutes and I've havn't eatin. This is the third year in a row that i havn't done anything for my birthday and I'm turning 14 so I'm still young and not to old to part

I'm sympathetic, and if I were your dad I would let you go, but there doesn't seem to be much you can do except cooperate.
I wish I had a better answer for you. The best thing a parent can do for a child and the best thing a child can do for a parent is to show love and respect, and it appears to me there has been a breakdown here.
You can be bigger and better and more loving than your dad in this issue, and what should encourage you is the fact at 14 you will have a lot more opportunities to do fun things.
I wish there was a way I could reach through this computer and help you. All I can do is try to encourage you to take this setback as just a setback and to go forward in your life.
I'm 65. There are things that happened in my childhood that are still hurtful when I think about them. But so many good things have happened in my life there is little reason to dwell on a painful past.
You sound like a good kid. Be the better person this time and you'll have every reason to be proud of yourself in the future.

Is it that he cant afford the Knotts Halloween Haunt and is suggesting to do something else or you may feel that he is completely obstinate to what you want. If he is the head of 14 people and does not have an awesome income (even with a dual income) it is hard to make ends meet at times. I am also guessing that you are in California because that is where I went to what they used to call "Knotts Scary Farm (from Berry Farm)" and I know that just living in California, the cost of living is outrageous let alone in So-Cal. I know that is an awfully big thing to think of at 14 because that sure wasn't what I was thinking of at that age but you really live with 14 other people then I don't think that anyone else in your household would be getting a birthday bash either. It is also a really hard thing for a man to admit that he cant afford to provide for all the desires and needs of his family and maybe, in a dyslexic way, that is possibly why he might be "unfair" with you.

birthday, i think, is not that important. When you have birthday, it means your chance or your time to live decreases a year. So on your birthday, better you thank God for everything He has granted to you,.
