    This is the letter I plan to print out and give to my dad.

    Any pointers or things I should change or add? And I dont know how to finish it either. I'm also looking for a time to give it to him when I'm not going to be around for a few days, so he has the chance to come to terms with it without me having to watch, is that a good idea?

    I love it! I would add that he can approach you with any questions though, just to keep the door open. Good Luck!

    okay. tnx. its probably the most truthful thing i'll ever 'say' to him
     
  4. I think it's great. :slight_smile: I can't really think of anything else you could add to make it any better, and I hope it all goes well for you. And, giving it to him when you'll be away for a few days isn't a bad idea, but do you have any idea what you could do to be away for a few days?

    yeah. in england. my grandparents are actually coming out in a few days. but i dont think they'd like it much... (ahhhhh, no). i guess i could try a sleepover weekend after next with a friend.
     
  8. A sleepover with a friend sounds like it'd work. :slight_smile:
