On the advice of my therapist I decided to be assertive with my dad two days ago using I statements. I told him I didn't appreciate him talking to me about my mom behind her back saying bad things asking my opinion. Guess what it worked im sure he might have yelled if others had not been nearby. This is the first time I have been assertive with my dad. It doesn't matter if he had yelled I needed to be assertive otherwise the resentments build up.
