Argh. The past three or four times you've reported something here, someone challenged you, and you wrote back perfectly good reasons why you did it, followed by, "should I have done that? what should I have done instead, do you think?"
... I would have loved to see you tell (us) to shove it.
To tell us that you are capable of standing up to your dad in a loving way and did, to explain how, and to assert that YOU know you did the right thing, and everyone else is welcome to their opinions. It would be a start of something different for you.
Stop caring so much what we think, and you might learn to care less what W thinks. BE YOU. You know where you want to go with yourself, and you'll get there if you start with one step and then another.
Tell me to mind my own business.
