A father's pride

I have the similar experience with you. I think because in your father's eyes,you are always his child and he can master everything difficult. He doesn't want to admit that he is growing older and older. So,just try be understand your father.

Hi ken! Please be more patient. You father might already be old and there is just a thinking on their part that they are always correct. But for sure if you could explain the thing to them, they will accept it also. But I'm sure your father deep inside is so proud of you. Sometimes they just don;t express that much. You are more knowledgeable, then you should be more understanding too. That's no big deal, promise. Almost all if not all fathers are like that. Happy New Year!

My father will tell us "show me what you mean".He loves to share his experiences that may sound as he is the leading actor in a movie.He will insist for those things he believe he is right but will always give us the way to let us show our point.

this is something quite relishable because of the wonderful charismatic idea he has spread and making a mark over here to understand the value of tv

This case is common especially nowadays that new technology is arising then young ones are most knowledgeable on it.It seems to be difficult for the elders to accept that they lack skills and information with that.Some say it's all because pride is one's most important quality to be taken care of.

Yes i have also experienced same never accepting that they wrong and i greatly understand that because they are the head of the family , all looks up to them with high regard therefore they must do perfect things to their children's eyes , this is the whole concept in dad's mind. I called them as traditional father ! Like a big no no if they will commit a mistake because this is also the thing they wanted their children to have so they showed themselves as an example. Fathers are fathers ! Though i don't agree with this , anyone is subject to commit something wrong and that is okay and acceptable because we are just human being , full of imperfections. This whole thing reminds me of my greatest traditional dad who is in heaven now. This topic made me missed him again. Cheers !

Mant fathers are that way. Not sure why they dont admit when they are wrong. My dad was that way for a long time. He has since changed, with old age. Take care there my dear....

Dude tell you what it takes a lot of courage to accept oneself was wrong. You don't to ask for similar experience because in your own life you may find yourself in position of your father. After all you are a normal human who thinks they are right all the time. And to answer your question, I did experienced it.

Well a friend of mine and is father was changing a bulb. My friend went up on the lather and his father was there holding the lather steady for him. When he was there screwing the bulb he realized that the bulb was too small for the socket and he mentioned it to his father. His father however sad that its the right sized and my friend is not technical and he should get down of the lather. When he got down his father went up and was trying to screw in the bulb and when he let go off the bulb it fell out of the socket onto the ground and to this day he never admit that the socket was too small.
