What's the worst thing you ever told your father?
I was very quiet and respectful, but one day, when I was twelve or thirteen, I asked my sister at breakfast, "Would you like a hard-boiled egg -- like father? She got the meaning, as did he and he was pretty pissed.

"I crashed the car."
Not so much that I crashed the car...so much as it was the second time in two weeks

Telling him my girlfriend (now wife) was pregant wasn't fun.
Giving him the phone and saying "Its the cops, they need to talk to you about me" didn't go over that well. There are a ton of things I had to tell him when I was between 17-19 years old, drugs, car crashes, various other mishaps. I give him credit, he never killed me, and helped me turn into a pretty descent person.

"I stole a golf cart from the club house (country club we used to live in) and sunk it in one of the water hazards, and now they want you to pay $900 for it...."

The worst thing ..well, it was said by my sister after we found out that my father took another woman (other than my mother) out to dinner in a romantic sense. She said:
"When I get married, you won't walk me down the aisle because you don't know what marriage is." That was a good 10 years ago and while my father became the great husband he is today (unfortunately, because he almost lost his family), my sister will not recant that. How's that for painful? Tibs.

"This guy asked me out..." I was in 9th grade. I was told that this is unacceptable, and that I was too young, and so I broke it off with the boy. As I found out, though, I wasn't supposed to ever have boyfriends or friends, regardless of how old I was. I haven't seen Dad in almost two years, and only spoke in monosyllables with him since I was sixteen, because he didn't want to hear anything I had to say anyway.

When my dad was cheating on my mom, he used to call my mom from the floozies house.
I remember I heard my mom sobbing on the phone begging him to come home. I had gotten tired of hearing her cry and watching her crumble to pieces while my dad went about acting like a teenager. So I picked up the phone and said "If you don't get your ass here in the next 5 minutes I'm going to disown you. I'm tired of this bullshit. I'm tired of you hurting mom. I hate you and what you are doing" I was 16 at the time. ..and yes..he did come back home.

Wow, the pregnant thing seems to be quite a trend....
In that spirit, mine was My husband's a junkie, he's out on bail but will be going away for 6mos minimum next month, and--oh yeah--I'm pregnant. After that one, everything else seemed easy.

I was the one who had to tell my father that his favorite grandson had cancer and was in stage four.
My sister had called before he got home. My mother had locked herself in the bathroom and he asked why *deep sigh*. Seeing my father cry rips my heart out.

Man, I have said some pretty awful things to my Dad. My parents were separated before I was old enough to have any memories as a family together. I lived in SC all my life and he lived in VA. Last time I went to visit, we got into an arugument, as we always do and I said "You cant have me come visit you twice a year and expect that I am going to be the person you want me to be! You havent even raised me."
That was pretty hateful. We are getting along a little better now. I am not a hateful person, but you have to understand, he would sometimes go months at a time without calling - but then again, I didnt call either. I still feel bad about saying it

1. I'm sorry you don't approve of drinking, Dad, but I do it responsibly. It's not my fault you and Mom are alcohol-phobics just because both your parents were alcoholics. I mean, K and J (siblings) and I are rage-phobic because of you, but that doesn't mean I expect you to stop your violent inexcusable behavior. You're going to continue to be a violent asshole who uses his size and power to hurt the people you love, and I'm going to keep having a drink when I feel like it.
followed closely by: 2. No, Dad, I don't really consider myself a Christian anymore, and yes, I believe we came from monkeys. and 3. You're just like your father. (long story)

On a lighter note...
"Dad, the car's boiling over. Also, the fan isn't turning. And the radiator appears to be sort of split down the midde. And it would seem that there's a chunk of the frame sticking through it. On the ground? Well, there's green, and red, and black..." I was doing whoopdie-doos with his stationwagon and I goofed up my timing just a wee bit. The car came down on a hill of dirt and tore the whole underside of the front of the car to bits. Frame pushed into the radiator, radiator pushed into the fan, fan pushed into the engine, etc. I'm still driving it today, though with a few new parts.

Gee, let's see.
That phone call from jail didn't go over too well. Why couldn't my mom have answered the damn phone? Telling him I was an alcoholic was kind of a drag. He thought at the time that if I could just get my shit together, I'd be ok. Sorry, wrong answer! But I have made my amends with him and him with me, and we are like two peas in a pod now!

The Oklahoma City bombing. I was the first person in my family to find out about it.

Telling my dad my boyfriend and I were moving in together was really tough because I knew they didn't approve (didn't really care though) and then 3 months later telling them I was pregnant and getting married in 3 weeks was worse. That was 1997... in June 1999 I got divorced and my parents didn't know about it until November 1999. They never cared enough about me to ask me what was going on in my life or how I was doing so I never bothered to tell them.
My family treats me more like an acquaintance than a daughter/sister. I've always been the black sheep of the family and that's probably why. My parents will bend over backwards for my two brothers and their families but they act like my family is invisible and doing anything for us or with us is a burden. I'm glad my in-laws are so wonderful... they make up for my own fucked up family.

1. "You're the one who's an idiot!" (this after I'd had enough of him calling me an idiot all the time)
2. "Um, Dad.. I got busted for shoplifting at the mall, and I kind of need a ride home.." (to which he sighed and answered: "What are we going to do with you?") [side note: six weeks later, my sister got busted for shoplifting at the same mall, and my parents blamed it on my bad influence.. I don't think so!] 3. "Shut up right now!" (after this long argument that wasn't going anywhere at all.. things went even more downhill after that)
