 During your teenage years Dad can sometimes be difficult to deal with or relate to. If I were you I would give him the benefit of the doubt, even if he is annoying. He is your father and you should love him with all of his shortcomings and vice versa. I am sure you do things that he finds annoying also. You may not see it now but one day you are going to appreciate all the rules, and punishment and things that right now seem to be totally unreasonable. Parents aren't always right, and they do not know everything but I am sure he has been doing the best he can as a parent. If he is yelling let him vent, listen in a respectful way and then later when he is calm sit him down and speak to him in a nice tone and let him know how you feel. That will show that you are maturing and you respect what he has to say and he will appreciate that much.If you want him to treat you like an adult you have to carry yourself like a young lady. Never argue with your parents. When people argue they almost always say things that they do not mean, so try not to get that upset with him and just walk away and talk to him respectfully later after the smoke has cleared. Good Luck.
