how do i get people to see my point of view?

Question

my dad craig dolby is one of the most stubborn person ever. i mean im stubborn too but some times i dont even know why i try to get him to see my point of view. i love him but it seems like he just never can put himself in my position. for example i was at this place where i was trying to get help . and the only person who helped me was this girl named jenny minthorn-dave. and she was suppose to discharge stortly after me and i never thought that i would see her again. but then my mother finds out that she had to still stay there after being there for two years. when its only a two month program. and so i was really hoping to go over and see her... soon. but my dad sayed no. and that i cant miss school, also that he doesnt want to drive the two hours over there. but then i told my dad that maby my grandma could take me over there because she lives about hafe way. also that because im an straight A &B student that i could easaly get caught up. but noooo! im not mad i just wish hed lisen

Answer 1

Parents always try to protect their children, while their children always think that it's just too much. I think it is just what happened to you and your dad.

Let your dad know why you should meet the girl and what you will do when you meet her. Let him know how this girl has helped you before, and you want to help her now.

Answer 2

It would all depend on what sort of place it is. And why has she been there for 2 years instead of 2 months. You say you were there for help so I am assuming it involves some sort of counseling. It may be that your dad knows more about this girl than you do and is trying to protect you.

Answer 3

First of all you use a whole lot of words to say very little, and secondly, you and your dad are alot alike!

Answer 4

you can't make people do anything if they don't want to. Relax and ride the storm

Answer 5

I not understand what you asking? ;-D
