But that strategy won't work for me I think.
I have come to accept the fact that my father is not going to change much. He is about 58, and it is hard for him to chnage hereafer.
So I am goign to learn to just discount what he is saying, what he believes in. And now I am realizing he is wrong about a lot of things. I can't make him right in everything, but I do want a relationship with my dad, and I love him so very much. I don't want to not have a relationship with him. That will kill me.
I am going to follow Tamar's advice above - to let myself be angry at his actions, without being angry at him
