next time your old man is painting a wall, or raking leaves, or washing dishes, or whatever…just join him and help out. no need to say anything. sooner or later you’ll say something to each other, doesn’t have to mean anything. you’ll be doing something together, that’s all he wants. if he asks you why you’re helping out, don’t give him a “buzz off” answer. tell him you’re doing it just to do it and 40 years from now it’ll be a good memory to have. it ain’t no big thing. he has no clue on how to connect with his kid, maybe he never learned from his old man. we’re all just people, trying to get by.
