guess he was only 16 years old when he had you, if your 16 now. 4am is not Last Night, it is wee hours of morning. Why would he tell you to f...off, after all he could not sleep until you got home, probably worried about you. Lots of parents do this. As for as grounding you for three weeks, I would have grounded you for two years, until you were of age and grown up enough to know that you should be home in bed by this time. As for as the slap across the face, sorry, but the evidence you presented here does not make me think that your Dad slapped you across the face and told you to f...off.

It appears like you've been grounded for one evening, the way you stated "grounded from pc and xbox (this evening)". If it extremely is that case, then you actually are way too a lot of a drama queen. If the grounding is for some thing of destroy, then that is somewhat severe. on the different hand, what's the version between waking up earlier and taking area in xbox all day and waking up later and taking area in xbox all day? as long as your gaming/surfing hours are the same, that isn't any diverse what time you commence and what time you sleep, yet snoozing and turning out to be earlier may actually help smooth the transition once you may change decrease back to a school-day schedule. you're being dramatic, yet you also DO have a precise to be disenchanted. yet as long as you do not pay the loan or the internet costs, you do not make the guidelines.

It was not right for your dad to hit you, but neither was it right for you say what you did. Your dad was probably worried sick about you when you weren't home, and yes, we parents do get angry when our kids are late coming in. It's only fair to get grounded for not following the rules. Your dad is still responsible for you, and only has your best interests at heart, even though you may not think so. How would you feel if he didn't come home when he was supposed to, and you didn't know where he was, and he didn't call you? Being a parent is one of the hardest roles to fill.
Try putting yourself in his shoes, and also try sitting down with him, and talking to him about all this.
It isn't cool to be a renegade kid. I've been there, done that, and suffered the consequences, plus I've raised 4 boys who also had to learn. It wasn't easy from either side of the fence.

Did your dad know where you were? Did he know how to contact you? It's only considerate to let a parent know where you are and not have him worry. Telling him to f---off sounds immature and getting slapped across the face for saying it sounds like dad was at the end of his rope. He shouldn't have hit you. Hitting is always the wrong way to deal. But grounding for three weeks...I'd say you're getting more than a fair shake.

Fairness is what the family is used to. What is fair for one may not be fair for another. However, slapping you is a bit over the top but you must realise that this is a knee jerk reaction even though it was a slap. 3 weeks is fair but maybe when he has calmed down perhaps you can talk him down to 1-2 weeks. Better than nothing.

please dear don't think your dad is being hard on you because your dad loves you and would not want you to get into trouble which you will latter regret,and try to put your self in his shoes ,how will you feel if your child got into trouble and has to be sent to prison or he gets a girl pregnant and he doesn't have money to take care of the mother and the baby or someone knocks his head with a bottle at that time in the morning when he was suppose to have been in bed.please just go to him and say sorry and he would do the same.

OF COURSE IT WAS. You missed curfew (I'm assuming) and you swore at your dad! Look, I'm 19 but I realize that my parents aren't "out to get me". I'm thinking your dad was probably worried sick over you because you were so late and he overreacted. He shouldn't have slapped you, but he has every right to ground you. Just because this is the first time you've come home late doesn't make it any less wrong.

Well, yes, sounds fair to me. The slap was probably for talking to him that way, the grounding more likely for staying out WAY too late. Sounds like you got off fairly easy for what you did.

Its fair. You should have thought about your dad efforts in growing you up. He doesnt have to do it. He doesnt have to wait for you until 4 Am. He got angried becasue he was realy worried if something happened to you.
You should have been more respondible, what have you done to make up of what he did for you? what have you done to show that family is a place of love ?
You were really insolant, and you should be ashamed of yourshelf.

Say sorry to your dad, if you really do feel sorry, things will go fine

Goodluck
