get him a tie
If your dad is an alcoholic your can draw him beer
YOU SHOULD DO CHORES FOR A MONTH AND THEN DO SOMETHING NICE FOR HIM
You should throw him a party, and get him something he has always wanted (that is not TO expensive).
My opinion is that you should draw something he likes.CarFishingBoatETC.Do what he likes to do or would like to do or likes to watch.
Your dad should only confiscate something that you bought with your money if...You are using it inappropriatelyYou are using it and not listening to himYou are ignoring instructions from him by using that instead of doing what he told you to doOtherwise, there should be no reason for your dad to confiscate something.AnswerOf course he can. Whether he should is a different matter. The most common reason that something is confiscated is that the child was instructed not to buy it in the first place.
You should talk to your mother about it. Don't tell your father, it should be your mother who does that. If she refuses to, tell her you will and see if she changes her tone.
Unfortunately, no matter how much you hate him, he is your dad. You should get him something. Show him you still care, even if you don't think you do.
confront your dad about it.
give your mom or dad something, or just hang out.
A mug or a funny teeshrit something that he can use all the time
It isn't so much your dad's age that matters when selecting a gift. The important thing is that you give him something related to something he likes. Find out what your dad likes and select a gift based on those likes.
It seems that your dad got you iPod because you did something that annoyed him. Say sorry to your dad and try not to do what you did wrong again. You should gain your dad's trust. Be extra sweet to him. You may try to prepare his breakfast or give the newspapers when he's up.
