OK, so me and my friend went with her dad to go to one of our high schools last football games. He told me to bring my phone. And i was. So i went to look for an extra pair of socks and my friend and her dad pulled up. Well, my dad doesnt like her dad so, he said "hurry, up their here, go, go". I had to run through the house grab my coat and get out. I forgot my phone. Now, he isnt going to give it back to me for a couple of days. Is that fair. I mean, if he didnt rush me, i wouldnt have forgotten my phone. I dont understand what i did wrong?

It's not your fault. If your Dad has a problem with the Father of one of your friend's, he needs to address the problem with him, not take it out on you. Your Phone should have not been taken away, your were trying to hurry up for your father, so he wouldn't have to deal with your friend's father. Try talking to him about this. tell him that he was rushing you to leave, you didn't have time to get your phone.

Hm'mm....well, there's got to be more here than just an issue about the phone. It may be that because he doesn't like your friend's father, and he knew you were going to be at a football game with them, he is now withholding the phone as a sort of punishment.
Do you and your dad usually communicate well, or is he more of the silent disciplinarian type? Either way, I think you two need to sit down together and find out where you both stand and what you both expect from the other. There just seems to be a lot of mixed messages here.
Tell him you feel the two of you need to sit down and talk as dad and daughter, and you take 10-15 minutes to tell him what's on your mind. He cannot talk or interrupt you when you're talking, but he should take notes. At the end of the 10-15 minutes, it's his turn to talk and you are quiet and taking notes. When he's done, you both take turns in addressing the issues that have come up. Doing it this way allows you both to fully understand where the other one is coming from, and things don't get dropped or overlooked because of interruptions. Good luck!

If he really rushed you out the door then he's not being fair. I'm sure he forgets things sometimes too.

I think you should explain to your father that you don't think it is fair and he will understand you. If he doesn't talk to your mom and see if she will talk to your father about his behaveior. Tward you and your phone. Or you could go somewhere and not call him and tell him that it was his fault that u didn't have your phone.
