No, it's just the season to be jolly, we have too much going on and too much noise at the moment . He does not actually 'mean' it, it is a matter of speech. That's all .
Try to be calm and don't raise your voice too much at other people. If they do it to you turn away and ignore them . The more you protest the worse it gets .
I don't know how old you are, but you sound kind'a young .Too Young to just pack up and leave just because dad was a little crabby . Please forgive it. It is awfully hard sometimes to be a parent .
Now your brother - that's another story . There you have to lower the boom . Make a nice sign and fasten it to the outside of your door. Please knock and enter only after invited . Boys take liberties, especially if they are younger than you . They love to tease their sisters . You are entitled to your privacy . Your parents should have a word with him. It mustn't be allowed that he can just pop in there. Bad manners .
Anyway, you all sound like a fun family and be grateful to have them to enrich your life. Lucky Girl.Happy New Year .

Your dad is just upset because of all the crazyness. He does not really mean it. It is also very stressful at this time a year. God knows even I which some people have told me I have the patience of a saint, even I am going crazy. You want everything to go smooth and when it dont it is hard. I would wait until things are calm and then sit down and have a heart to heart with dad. Ask him if he would rather you move out. I bet he says no. Good luck.

That depends on how old you are and if you can support yourself--you may get deeper into trouble and cause your family to worry if you move out before you are ready.
I freak out like your dad did about the shoe but only if my kids have done the same thing over and over.
Help make things easier for your dad and things will go a lot smoother--lay your clothes out the night before, lock your door so you won't have to worry about your brother barging in.
Try to be understanding with your dad--he is probably under a lot of pressure.
My kids are 18,17,14 and 12--none of them know what's going on---:)

No, but start being a role model for your family that is younger than you and be a bit more responsible . Do not dictate to others, you hate it when your dad does it to you. Help them get to where they should be and help your dad so that he can rely on you. Take the reins once in a while so there is not so much pressure on him.
Show that you can be responsible and mature and I am sure he will back off a bit. He is overwhelmed, you being older should know what is needed and expected of you. Take the lead and set a good example for the others. Be a man.....help your siblings instead of pushing their buttons. You will get their respect and your dad's.

W e all have bad moods once in a while. You wait for all of you to cool off. Do not have a grudge against your Dad. He is right. to punish you .You should put your things in order in the house so that you do not misplace them when you need to find them. Be orderly.I think you have a temper too and extended your hard headedness to your other siblings. Be calm and think very hard first before deciding of running away. How old are you ? Can you afford to live on your own without the help of your parents?

You sound young and hormonal and overwhelmed by a very dramatic day, so I'm guessing you are under 18 years of age and just had a really bad day, but the truth is that it sounds like a very normal day for a family with several kids in the house. There will be days when everyone gets along, and many days when they don't, especially if you have more than one teenager or preteen in the house.

That depends. Are you over 18? If not, I would like to suggest you try to change your attitude. If you are having problems with everyone in the house, it's probably you and not them. When alot of people live in one house it's hard, but you have to put up with each other. Now, if you're over 18, then you don't have to be there. Move out.

you think that's bad, my mother told me 3 days before Christmas that she wished I was never born. You just having normal family problems other people wished they had. next time you see your dad just give him a kiss for no reason , my dad and I argue and I just kiss him and walk away and then things are good between us again.
