I am going to put a slightly different spin on this. I have 2 sons (18 and 9) and I know I can count on the younger one (even when the older one was the same age the younger one out does him) to do his best job and to carry through til the job is done. I have tried to work with the older one and have come to realize that HE has to make the decision to make something of himself and there is nothing I can do to make this decision for HIM. Therefore, I would suggest that you have decisided to make something of yourself and your dad is teaching you the lessons you need to learn to not only make something of yourself but to ultimately suceede. I know the lessons that you are about to learn are not always going to be pleasant or easy but if you learn them you will only be limited by your imagination. Now that may seem to be a bit of corny but from experience my dad pushed me hard (at times I thought very hard) but I have suceeded and seem to get tapped everywhere I have worked to take on the most chalenging projects because (I will assume) I will get it done and it will be on time, correct and the best that I can offer. The best advise I can offer is don't fight it and soak up everything you can because you never quite know when or where they will come in handy or save your butt!
