Fostering gone terribly wrong!!!! :'(

[Gibs960]

Well a couple of weeks ago my dad told me he'd fostered a 9-year old girl, until now I've just found out, its a ******* dog! He put me through all that, I didn't even want him to foster and after all that he tells me, and it wasn't even from him, my brother had to find out - then tell me. And now my dad expects me to take it as a joke and get on with my life and keep going to his house, am I right to be annoyed?

I suppose you are right to be a bit annoyed with how worked up you got about it. But let's face it, look on the bright side, he didn't foster anybody and you get a dog to play with

No.
It's a joke get on with it.

LMAO if you are being serious then you realy do have problems.

I'm not being funny but this is a joke, get a sense of humour. You believed it and should of been happy regardless of it being a dog or a real girl.

I've gone through all that, he's put me through that, and now he says its a joke. And he expects me to go and just get on with it, and he also told me to get a new dad because I didn't want to go because for 4 weeks I thought he'd fostered.

There are a great deal worse things in life that you could have gone through than that. It is certainly not the worse thing in the world by any means and not worth fighting with your Dad over. I am sure he now realises that it was a joke that went too far so I would forgive and forget.

I'm really confused. :S

Did you not have a suspicion that your 'fostered' sister looked incredibly like a dog? Or am I still on the wrong track?
Please enlighten me more.

You need to get a sense of humor. It's a dog. Dogs are one of the greatest things ever, get over it.

anyways enjoy your dog

this is coming from someone with a great sense of humour (obv ;l)


your dad sounds like a childish, insensitive man. you're right to be annoyed, it doesn't look as though he planned on telling you and even if he did weeks is a very long time to lie about something like that. it's playing with your emotions and he should have known better, if my dad did something like that to me i'd nevere trust him or take him seriously. don't listen to the people who tell you to get a sense of humour or get over it, if you can handle a lie like that then good for you but for some of us it means much more. i wouldn't ignore him or stop seeing him i'd just make sure he knew it annoyed me but i'm sure you'll find the funny side soon, no point baring a grudge over that
