Last night my father scolded me and my brother Because from his point of view, we're not ripe yet. Or rather using his language, we are not yet become men. This is despite 38 years myself, and him 27 years. My father now will put us in the order established businesses the date of 1 January 2015.In that date he would to see two real men. In fact, he's right. This is for our childish behavior That we have. He will succeed? For my part I will try to put the best of my commitment. I also thought That if I want, I six months, I can still regain full confidence in my dear father. I will try to do it!

I think your father wants you two to be serious on life. Plan for the future, be more optimistic.. Our parents still knows what's best for us, of course we do have our own opinions, its up to us if we follow the teaching of our parents.

I guess who must also consider the request of your father. There are always time for joke and to be serious in life. I know you two are mature enough to understand the situation.

Well, without a doubt, all of us have taken or even still we are taking the lessons of life from our parents. Now you can understand that my father, having two sons respectively 38 and 27 years, expect a little more maturity, and, as you have rightly said, planning for the future.

For me sometimes, being real men cannot be measured by the age. I think it really depends on how he handles responsibility as being men. I think your father still does not see you mature enough for your age and he want something more. Good luck and I know you and your brother will make it and make your father proud of what you achieved.

Thank you for your encouragement. However, I am confident. I think if I set about commitment, from here in July, I can in the "enterprise" !

At 38 and 27 of course you are men! If you have been behaving childishly it's probably just the way you are...young at heart. You can't live your life the way your Father dictates and need to go off on your own and take care of yourself.

Well, for my part I can put all my good will for me to be liked by my father. While in the case of my brother (who is 11 years old less than me), this depends solely on his will.

You are already on a role since you are willing to make those improvements. This proves you already as a mature person. Hopefully your dad will see your efforts.

Well, I tried to promise myself that yesterday, I will work to have a behavior with him by an adult. The date proposed by me is the month of July. Only then perhaps my father will be proud of me then! (At least I hope so!)

I am really curious to know what exactly is the definition of a real man, according to your father. I doubt there is a definition for it.

Real man: for my father means two people (me and my brother), more responsible, more independent, and above all without infantile behaviors. After all, I believe he is right. Or else what he should expect from us?

Yes, you're right! This is why I put "at work" in order to succeed in this "business".

Well, there are often times when no matter how old you get sometimes you never add up to what someone expects of you and wants you to be. Especially with your family. At 38 and your brother being 27 you are men. But maybe since you are not doing what your father thinks you should be doing, this is why his thoughts. But in reality, even if he is wanting something different, it is up to you, on what you do with your life.

Being a man means taking responsibilities, being independent and planning your future. Your father wants you to grow up and be a man. Take responsibility of your life.

well, just be comfortable with yourself and do your best whenever you do something....to be honest, i don't care much about what the others says..such as i am childish sometime...it doesnt matter, it is me and i live as who i am as long as i am independent, earn money and care myself... it is nice when your father gives you a chance to do business, if you like, you can do it, if not, you can do what you like as long as you can earn money for your living...

Well, you said right! My brother and me, we can do what we want, just as soon as we are independent. But as long as we behave as "parasites", my father is right to "shock us" to plan our future.

Hi alberello, For me, age has nothing to do with maturity of 1 person.. you cannot blame your father to worry 'coz he is a parent, the reason maybe why your father acted that way because of childish behavior that you have.

adults. No longer as young children, for the simple reason that both of us we are no longer!

Hi, Every father wants his children well settled in their life. He has the right to scold you or become angry on you as he wants to see your progress and success in life. So you should try to understand your father's feelings and try to give him support and take care of him.
