Why does my dad complain that I hide in my room?

Answer 1

• It is common for young people to want some privacy and they find that privacy in their own room, but if you are in your room on the computer; listening to music and seldom spend anytime with your dad or the rest of the family it is not good for you to do so. It is important to spend some time with family because they will not always be there throughout your entire life and it also helps you to socialize outside of your home. Sit down with your dad and let him explain why he feels you are hiding in your room and then you explain why you like your privacy. If your dad has some good points and you are not spending enough time with family then be mature and meet him half-way. It is very important to have quality time with family and even though at this time in your life you do not understand why you will in the near future and by being part of the family you will be left with some good memories to look back on.

Answer 2

Your dad may complain that you hide in your room because he wants to spend more time with you or is concerned about your social interactions. It's possible that he wants you to be more involved in family activities or have a healthier balance between alone time and socializing. Communication is key - try talking to your dad to better understand his concerns and find a compromise.
