<p>My personal take is that pulling that plug was all about control. Pure and simple, he was furious that his daughter volunteered at the school that evening, although, it sounds as if she was finished by 8 pm. He was furious that she didn’t work on her scholarship application on his time frame, so he made it impossible for her to finish. </p>
<p>DadII, in case you haven’t gotten it yet, this action was cutting off your nose to spite your face. It served no useful purpose, other than allowing you to bully your daughter, cause her distress, and for you to throw another temper tantrum over her volunteer activities at school. </p>
<p>The girl is not out partying and running with the wrong crowd. She’s at her school, staying involved, and having the type of senior year that we would all hope our kids enjoy. She’s also winning awards and keeping up a phenomenal gpa.</p>
<p>You started thread out by saying you Feel bad, really really bad. Do you actually feel bad? I know I do…I feel really really bad for your daughter and son.</p>
