Dad is driving everyone crazy
Is it that people got locked up too long now all go holiday that lots of holiday conflicts?
Currently my mother just had a melt down after my father went crazy in the hotel over something minor. Sister and I are caught in between because the issue could only be solved by themselves as it’s between them and their friends.
Father wished to be commander and throw all the dirty shit jobs to mum. Mum had enough after 20 over years and these few days being stuck with him due to tour group and she have to fake happy in front of outsiders.
It’s just a short 5 days trip to Thailand, following a tour but is semi-free and easy. Father kept blaming mum for the problem caused by their common friend, and it’s so minor plus he agreed on the plan now he doesn’t want to cooperate and left things hanging. (Deadline given to him for respond way before the trip) Obviously to get things to work, they will chase him for a yes or no! He just don’t want to answer so no choice they texted my mother.
He blew up and started his crazy rampage. Throw things, mess up the luggage and refuse to get out of the hotel. As long as no outsider there to see, he act up! Imagine a 60 year old doing that!
For 2 straight days he still not over it. Very very sianz, in the end, he asked for his passport and mum gave it to him. He nearly torn it up. Mum walked away and had a mental break down! She held too much of his shit inside already!
He everything cannot, put blame on others and make minor, non related issues into big problem YOU created because anything that makes him unhappy, is your fault!
Honestly, he has been somewhat like that all the time, just that he haven’t really act up like this during trips. This is the first and worst and probably last family trip! I felt I wasted all my money for the trip, we missed a few places of interest just to give in to his tantrums!
With 2 more days to go, us stuck in a hotel room … I don’t know what to do… we planned a Venice trip for next year, I think better don’t go liao! 5 days already like this torturous! I pity my mum, she can’t go Venice till he dies coz nobody is willing to go with him!
