(9,561 posts)a perfectly good laptop...but that's me.
What I see is a control freak with anger issues. Just the fact that he said he left home at 15 tells me he didn't have the greatest childhood himself. It is one thing to have chores for your children, I did for mine, but what I hear him read from his daughter and how he responds makes me think he thinks she is his personal slave and it goes beyond making your bed and doing the standard chores kids do. I can just hear him sitting in his chair and saying to his daughter "Get me a cup of coffee." irregardless of what she may be in the middle of. I think he is creating the same scenario that caused him to leave home.
At the end of the day I think this video says a lot more about him, and his definition of Dad, than it does about his daughter.
