The Old Man

How is your relationship with your father Sup Forums? I believe that a healthy relationship with your father is fundamental to the development of western society, more so than a relationship with your mother. Share his profession, age, and his beliefs if any, along with your age, current situation, and how your relationship is with your father.

I don't know my dad and neither does my kid. Life is a cycle. Everyone dies.

Him: 28, African American, 60k, food services

Me: 18, white, 22k in bank, food services

My son: 4, white, 13k in reddit karma, baby

You can't know your father, but he knows you more than you think, as do you your child I would imagine. Life is a cycle and we die for a reason, to make room for our children, in the hopes they can be better people, something every good father will come to understand one day. What matters is what you are taught and what you teach.

Oh this is quality, watch the summerfags pile up (You)s you sneaky fuck

Guess I'll post my situation,

Father:48, Mechanic, divorced when i wa young so haven't seen him in about 4 years

Me: 21, full-time college student and Marine Surveyer(basically do insurance claims and repair estimates from imported cars, mostly Hyundai and Honda, damaged during transportation by sea vessel, easier than it sounds), Sadly I don't like my father too much, had to get a father figure from old school cowboy films and knight movies during younger years

My dad is 65, career soldier (retired), GOPe. I'm 30, career infantryman, (medically retired VA rated 100% disabled with IU, leg blown off in Afghanistan with traumatic arthritis up and down my spine), Trump supporter.

We don't talk, he thinks I'm a welfare leech, I think he's a POG ass cuck.

Did both your legs get blown off or just one?

>leg

Dad is airline pilot 56, makes around 120k.
Me 23 airline pilot as well make 55k for now, we have a good relationship but I just had to move to Chicago from California so I wont be seeing him much anymore

Left leg above the knee

My dad died when I was two and left mom with me and a newborn. She did her best and pushed me to masculine things like outdoors work and that shit. But I know I missed out in a important part of growing up, and I never learned how to speak deeply to women, so I've become a kissless virgin just Saturday. Still think the world of Mom, she put my brother through college and balanced raising us, getting a degree and working at the power plant, but I just wonder what could have been

That's pretty fucked up of your father to think. Since your soldiering days are over have you got any other job?

>be me
>both parents highschool drop ours
>end up fucking and getting pregnant
>father beats her and runs away
>mother never has a stable relationship after
>oldest of 6 kids
>18
>youngest is 9 months
Let us not forget that she is super liberal and fell for the "dont need no man" bullshit. Youngest one is a gross mongrel of a spic and white

My father is 55, I'm 30, we both share the beautiful profession of NSA agents.

I have a great relationship with the old man.

Owns a company and a huge lot of industrial land worth millions now.
He's been married to my mother for over 30 years and each of them have never been married prior.
Him and my mom keep a stable environment at home, buy me stuff whenever I needed it and put me through a STEM degree at a mid-tier university.
He is a brilliant entrepreneur and whenever I need business advice, I talk to him first.

White privilege feels great.

I dont have much of a relationship with either of them. Mom sends me money once in a while but thats it. I have two sisters that dont talk to me too. Holidays always suck, and I dont have much hope for relationships as a result of this. Still get laid tho.

>everyone on Sup Forums is from a broken home
This really explains why you're all bitter virgins.

I'm pretty sure half of the West is from broke homes, here at Sup Forums we at least acknowledge it as a problem.

I cut off contact with him around one year ago. Not a man I respect and we differ dramatically on politics, religious ideas, pretty much everything. After a while I said "to hell with this, what's the point?"

What if my father is a degenerate Marxist?

Typical boomer. Very hard working, but his entire youth was kind of a drifter's youth, where he just wandered from town to town, state to state, getting jobs he was massively unqualified for before going to university and settling down. As a result, he has absolutely no comprehension about how much the world has changed, and doesn't understand that I can just walk into a building off the street and apply for a full time job with no qualifications in the booming mining industry. When he had kids, he was too embroiled in investments and work to ever bother with us that much, but all the quality time we had together holds a special place in my heart.

Despite how much I respect him, I have to say that I never want to be like him outside of his work ethic. He spent too much time at work, and not enough time with his family, which resulted in my mother mostly raising my siblings and I. Since my mother herself has a lot of mental issues, this left permanent scars on all of us. Most of my friends had relationships like this with their fathers, except the ones who didn't have fathers at all. It's a bit depressing.

Then he probably had rich parents or was raised by a single mother, otherwise he just didn't get along with his father. Most Marxists fall under one of those three categories, again connected to my theory that good fathers are necessary to maintain a western culture.

This is what's harming our present society, lack of good fathers figures or just bad ones, when a man can't even create a bond with the child he helped create then it's a sign there's a big problem with the mentality of those generations, and the problems only get worse as generations pass, something that is become far too common in the West.

Not really. Been going to a lot of physical therapy for my spine, prognosis (from shitty VA doctors) says I'll be in a wheel chair in the not too distant future. Luckily, I was blessed with a strong musculature, so hoping to prove them wrong. Really been thinking hard about becoming a history teacher.

That sounds crap as hell. I'm just hoping you turnd out for the better, lil' bro.

My father is dying of liver cancer, about 2 weeks left, I have been spending every night over at my parents house. He's sleeping most of the time now.

It's sad to see the man who I viewed as a hero, slowly waste away.

Fuck cancer, go hug your dads.

mines in prison

I've worked with my dad for like 3 years now. I really don't like him as a person. He smokes weed all the fucking time. He wont listen to anything I try to tell him, and when it end up being an 'I told u so' he gets really pissed.
He's also called me buddy my entire life and not by my actual name. Sometimes i question if hes my biological father.

Kill yourself

He died a few years ago in a car accident ripperino
But all of his family are labour supporting socialists so who gives a fuck

Toss in your social security number and mother's maiden name for good measure

That's an admirable goal, I would like to become a history teacher in my old age and teach, I'm just worried about the type of kids I'll be teaching.

Actually his parents were poor. He is just a philofag and loves open borders. He disgusts me.

Then he might of just had a bad relationship with his father

He was killed by the Zetas over a decade ago. He was a great man and I am proud to carry on the traits he left me. He will be avenged.

Great. He's with my mom since 26 years. We lived a pretty good life and he provided for us. I learn respect, responsibility and all the good stuff from him. I can talk life, politics and almost everything with him that we discuss here. Some times he doesn't have the full scope of things but he's open minded to new information and ideas.

I love him and I know that I can always come back home and be welcomed with a smile.

He did. His father beat the shit out of him every day.

Personally though my point of view is that beating your children is good. Just because it didn't work on my dad doesn't mean it isn't a good way to build character and discipline your children.

Mexicans tend to have that advantage over white people, the families tend to be a lot closer and the parents more traditional.

Destroying the family unit has been one of the more prominent missions of the Jews

Their mission appears to be bearing fruit.

It's true. I was raised Jewish and I saw how evil Judaism is. I converted to Protestantism and Jesus lights my path. Usury, misegination and degeneracy have no place in civilized society.

You can blame the Jews if you want, but in the end it's just individuals failing to fulfill their duties by their own free will because it's easier, no one can force a man's hand, only offer him a place to put it.

So what if your views and opinions differ. Don't quit you faggot.
You rise above it and carve a solid relationship with you father, regardless, even if it the onus is on you.

What the fuck is wrong with cunts these days?

>daddy no agwee wiv me
>waaaa
>I no wuv daddy any more
>buh bye daddy

Well... I'm not giving up on my dad. I will continue to try to show him the path of our Lord Jesus Christ so he may be saved.

There's some nigger tier Mexicans that have no responsibilities with their sons and just go around dumping kids like mad, like my inclu who has like 7 children with 4 women, that I know of, but truly our culture it's pretty family oriented.

We love a good carne asada and beer with the family.

I wouldnt blame the destruction of the family unit solely to the Jews. Surely, its part of the Agenda, but I think its more of a symptom of the way we conduct ourselves and the things we all promote in our society then it is them specifically. Of course things like subsidizing whoring (child benefit) contribute greatly to the family units disintegration, but at the end of the day, its the culture we choose to embrace.

I kekd

Uncle*

Fucking awful. He should have never had kids.

Hes dead

Yeah it's true. Plus Mexicans are mostly Christian. That is an admirable trait in my book. I pray that the cartels will meet a firey end for their sins against both our people

Waiting for him to die, desu

Good lad.

God speed, user.

Pretty good. I'm at his office because he said he needed help finding stuff but he's in with a client so I'm shitting around here.

This

I have an excellent father who I love and respect tremendously, despite our political opinions not aligning in the slightest. If anything, it makes our many arguments interesting and enjoyable.

He killed himself 35 years ago. He was a mechanic/blacksmith/artist - obviously suffered from depression and extremely low self esteem, his father also killed himself. I'm trying to break the cycle...

Swiss dude care to share your situation? Seems like you got some strong convictions and I'm wondering if it's good parenting.

He is a man who worked his entire life. Also very european. It makes me proud to be white because of who he is.

Good luck user, do you have a church nearby? I found in times of doubt being embraced by the church and followers of the Lord gave me solace and comfort.

awful and I hope he dies

i'm his doppelganger with a different face, we're both competitive, stubborn and very proud so it's either excellent or hellish, depends on the day, he's also the only man in the world that can give me an order

>him: 38, NEET and garbage
>me: 20, I do computer stuff and have 20k in the bank because I'm more frugal than a jew

powerade and buying in bulk is my love and hobby outside of shitposting and vidya.

Drunk as fuck somewhere. And so am I so I can't blame him for that. Really jealous of you burgers, I mean having a option to off yourself with a gun with 97% success rate is awesome! I on the other hand have to use a fucking rope that is bothersome to set up and isn't that good not to mention wrist cutting and pills memes that never work! Although putting your head in front of train wheels is the best option I don't really want to traumatise the hard working dude who drives the damn thing. Guess I am stuck here for hell knows how much.

you must have a really weird life if your dad had you at 18

Thanks, haven't been my thing but I'll consider it, I actually feel more "spiritual minded" as I get older

Great father overall, solid as a dad and a friend.

We have almost identical political views, but his are not well thought out and our approach to life differs to the extent where its difficult to find common ground outside of casual islamophobia.

We have an awkward relationship yet both recognise that we both try and as such end up working on many projects together even though we live in different countries.

He ensured my childhood was filled with adventure, imagination and a rebellious spirit, despite poverty.
He showed me, deliberately I believe, that you can work your way out of a shit situation, but to bear all responsibility and never take anything for granted.

One thing, he'll walk with me to the gates of hell if that's where life took me.
Id like to think some others I know would too, but I can't bank on it as I can with my father.

One thing he always taught me was that as a son, father, husband or brother it is your responsibility to keep the family in check, in good stead and provided for.


Fuck, raise a glass for your old man Sup Forums, in deed or in spirit.

He abandoned us as children, and I finally came home or year ago and I've been working with him ever since, and in that year I have learned, much to my dismay, that he is not the man I had hoped he was. He's only human. But I can be better. He might be a leftist cuck, bereft of all free thought, but I can be better.

your father sounds like mine, i'll raise a glass for your old man, fathers like these are becoming rarer and rarer, we have to appreciate them while they are still a thing and do our very best to follow their example

Just moved to oregon from Texas. Miss my dad so much, he was my best friend.

Unbelievable fortune Swiss bro, as you can tell a large portion of Sup Forums wasn't as lucky and I fear it will only get worse as time goes on. I'd cheer for my step father, who despite being a bit of a dick, I know at least gave his full effort at raising me despite having a shitty childhood himself, thought by the time he got any good at it I was already self sufficient, now all I can get is advice.

That's the point. He's just human.

As infallible as we think ourselves to be, there will be those that scoff at us, and deride us. Rightly so.

Where we can, and within reason, we must be the Testament to our future sons, a platform for them to soar from, to even greater heights than we have achieved.

Old man is 58. Was a truck driver for years and now an Orderly.
I'm 35 and Manage an Earthmoving company.
We have a great relationship. I live in a different state to my parents, but when I do see them, I always go out fishing with him in his boat. He loves his fishing, but never has anyone to go with him. I always go with because I can see the joy on his face when we go together.
When I did live in the same state. Would help him do renovations to my parents house.
I couldn't ask for a better father.
He has moulded me into the person I am today.

>I'm a mid twenties, above-average intelligence, and have a handful of great accomplishments.
>My Father is in his early fifties, works for Google, and has a handful of great accomplishments.
>Both of us are great people, but in the last two years, our politics have diverged, as well as our personalities.
>In the last six months, he's embodied the epitome of leftist cuckery, where I am unable to see any sign of authenticity about him anymore.
>The most inflammatory events that have destroyed our relationship have been when I addressed the distancing of our conversations, and the overall degredation of our relationship
>He believes that I've been washed up by some neo nazi cult, (while I'm a cuckservative), and I'm left to believe that he will never recover from whatever brainwashing he has been subject to.
>I'm certain Google has some form of indoctrination or subliminal ways to embolden the lefty narrative, because I expected him to be able to handle his side losing.
>I wish my dad wasn't a cuck.

I appreciate the commendations.

We should all lead by example and not be bitter. See that which was faulty and obviate it in our own lives, without letting it poison our disposition.

Oh, and a glass to yours.

My father's first born, my older brother, came out as transgender, so I'm working to make him extra proud of me as a man to make up for the son he lost :c

Its great, we joke around, hunt together, take hikes, build cabins on our land in the mountains and sell them. He is like a best friend to me.
Hope i will be half the man he is.

I'm 18. He died two years ago. He was very smart and kind, strong and handsome too. He destroyed his health with beer, candy, smoking, and fatty foods--heart attack. As good of a man as he was, I strive to one day be a better father. He was irresponsible with his health and didn't always spend money well. We always lived in apartments. I currently live with my single mother, a democrat. I must hide my power level until I get a job so I can start my life.

NOT GOOD HE STILL THINKS WHAT IS BEST FOR ME AT 22

mid late 50's
works in IT, known as a sage in his field. makes 112k+ last i was told.

I'm just a tech peon. Remote Desktop support. he says I'm about the same place he was at my age career wise (except i make less, but whatever). 26.

He is very smart and good at his job but is known by those close to him to be emotionally infantile.
He has always been a quasi fundamentalist Mormon. Like, even other Mormons that we go to church with have always thought he was a little much. I guess you can say he mellowed over the years as each of his kids has turned into losers. His wife died in childbirth when i was 12. he remarried her best friend within 6 months i think. He had no chance of raising 6 kids on his own along with a newborn premature kid with cerbal palsy. and the kid ended up having a flavor of non verbal autism to boot.

I know his dad was pretty ruff on him. From what i've heard i probably would have killed my dad if i had gone thru some of what he did growing up. And he was an only child, that's why he had so many kids (they adopted 3 ontop of having 6 themselves) So Ive tried to be easier on him over the past few years. I know i wasn't when i was younger. He knows I love him, but sometimes i can only interpret his actions as deliberate sabotage. I wish he would be less of a child. He got a little abusive (physically) with one of my sisters (and me a bit too i guess, not that it probably wasn't a little necessary in my case) and I think that's why she is following a cult in india. making a few dollars a day and shitting outside i'm sure.

I'm going to tell him i love him when i get off work tonight. another one of my sisters is in a mental hospital again while on vacation so ill be talking to him anyway.

>We should all lead by example and not be bitter. See that which was faulty and obviate it in our own lives, without letting it poison our disposition.
wise words northern neighbour

I'm a huge sack of crap. I work a lot, save all my money and own property. My white guilt is killing me.

My dad is 68, married to mom together since middle school.

When they pass on I will be a literal millionaire, so will brothers and sister.

White guilt.. me so sad.

My father is a good one. He raised me well and taught me many important things. 10/10.

>emotionally infantile
My dad's like this too. He's a very good and hard-working man but it's nigh impossible to have a conversation with him, sometimes feel like I'm talking to a cartoon.

Friend of mine got raped by her dad many times. I always wonder if she lurks these threads or if she hides them because of the traumatizing memories.

I have a great relationship with my father. Always have. We used to go hiking a lot, but now that he's older, we usually go fishing or boating instead.

He's retired now, but he was a successful businessman and entrepreneur who succeeded in many different fields. He retired a moderately wealthy man, and has been very generous with his money, without outright spoiling any of us.

Politically speaking, he's traditionally conservative, but not rigidly so. He supported Trump during the election (fairly rare in Norway) because he thought he would be the most interesting choice, and he's always liked outspoken wildcards like him.
He's against immigration and a race realist, like any sane person, but not personally racist in the sense that he hates other races or refuses to have anything to do with them. In fact, having to deal with them is what redpilled him in the first place.

Other than that, he's always been physically active and is still in great shape. He's had more adventures than I can imagine and dominated a certain adventurous, sports-like activity to the point where he was among the greatest in Norway, winning dozens of championships. I'm being purposely vague here, as I don't want to be identified.

I also feel I have to mention my mother, because the two are so fundamentally tied together. She's more or less been the glue that has kept our family together, and she's as caring and mentally strong as a woman can be. They trust each other completely, and my father often says that he wouldn't have been able to achieve what he did without my mother's support.

Died when I was a baby. Didn't think too much of it when I was growing up but I did noticed how much the masculine absence fucked me by the time I was 18-19 and was completely unable to understand and felt outside my male peers, which in turn effected my ability to to interact with women, naturally.
Slowly over the years, I've been trying to figure out a way to be a proper man but it's difficult if it's not something innately imprinted on you from a young age. My main concern is that I'll one day, go too far the other way and maybe become a tyrant on my kids in attempting to compensate in disciplinary action.

I realize now more then ever that kids, both boys and girls definitely need both the masculine and feminine of their Mother and Father to become healthy, competent, decent people. This also why this marxist attack on the human core of family is probably one of the most insidious and evil things I can think off and makes me sick to my stomach.

My dad is the same. He had no father figure aside from Training Instructors in the Air Force, so he's not perfect. He's tried his best and I've inherited his faults to a large degree, but he's trying and that's all I can ask for.

Maybe you should latch on to Peterson. He seems to be acting as a sort of surrogate father for a lot of young men.

Already did in a way. It's also something I laugh about now but looking back I often realized how incredibly prone I was to hero worship in whatever I was interested in and often daydreamed about being becoming someones protege in whatever thing it was. I didn't connect the two things until years later when the I guess I grew too old for that sort of thing.
SUPER SUPER gay but what can ya do?

he is dead no id say non existant

my dad beats me and then reported me to police claiming i was the one beating my parents lol, i went to jail for a good time, never spoke them again after

My father died of a heroin overdose when i was 12.

I rely way too much on him financially, I love him dearly but I wish I could be the one to spoil him. JP's talk about rescuing your father really spoke to me. Turns out he did take some of my advice, buying gold at 900$/ounce and using his company to bounce it back and forward when he needs liquidity, also took my advice and expanded his land ownership.
I think he'd disappointed in my lack of will.
Atleast I gave him 2 white grandchildren.
One thing is for sure, if he ever needs a hand I'd jump at the chance, thing is he's a C/C#/C++ programmer taking home 300$/hour working innawoods on a 1mbit satellite feed he scammed a company into giving him for free, since they made a shitty add where they guaranteed a certain speed he knew they would be able to provide so they were ordered by a court to put in hardware costing around 5 grand, free of charge, afterwords they added alot of exceptions to their "pledge". Hillarious.
He also keeps bees, got 7 hives and is starting to raise his own queens.

I hate my parents and avoid them now that I am an adult living by myself. I ignore their gay ass phone calls.

I don't think they were good parents and I don't have any affection for them. Whatever, I'm a grown man now and need to get a job so I'm not spending so much time on Sup Forums.
