growth? No judgement please - I am (and have been) working hard to move out of the house. (I'm currently still in the process of saving up). My dad does not understand privacy. He's your typical asian father full of negativity, criticism, and high expectations. He always complains how kids are "this and that" yet completely enable for my sister and I to grow and be adults. For example: he likes to just go into my room and just takes my clothes and washes them as he pleases. That's nice of him but I get so upset because that's not his job to do - i can do my own laundry. Also, i tend to be very possessive of my things, especially with clothes. I don't appreciate people going in there and just grabbing things, especially with him. No notification at all. I'll walk into my room and i'll notice my clothes are gone...my paperwork will be all neat but things will be thrown out without my knowledge. I tell my mom but she doesn't "want to upset" my dad bc asian mentality says the dad is the head of the house and he will always be right (and so stubborn about it). His excuse is that "the clothes need to be washed" but I get around to it when I have time to. I'm a full time nursing student, I work and when i do notice things need to be clean, I WILL DO IT. Everytime I bring this up, he complains and puts us down how we're such bad kids and continues with his emotional abuse. Help...
My plan is that I will move out but now, i need a way for him to get away from my room....
