Question
I'm writing to let you know about my concerns about recent communication difficulties with my father.
As he's aged, my dad has become increasingly distant and hostile. Despite my efforts to connect, he refuses my calls and accuses me of being a "web hacker". When I tried to speak with our mother recently, he responded with hurtful cursing.
I care deeply about my parents, but my dad's behavior has left me hurt and unsure of what to do next. Any advice or support you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
Answer
Sorry for what you’re going through with your dad I know it’s not easy to deal with him. Anyway my advice here is just to keep distance from him for sometimes and give him a short break. Maybe he is going through some stress as I know when people are approaching their old age they go through some life changes which even themselves can’t understand, so that makes them feel like everyone around them is the cause of their stress. So take it easy and give him some time.
