Im worried about my biological dad
T.w(jail/prison/breaking laws/drugs)
I dont know if my biological dad is still using or not. He said he is doing fine but idk. I found out he has court coming up for burglary and other charges, and when i asked him about it he said the it is all just a big misunderstanding and that nothing is wrong and not to worry. But i called the court clerk, she said if he doesn't get paroled then it could be 1-15years or more depending on the judge and past offenses and that there is an attorney involved. When i told him this he freaked out and told me to stop looking him up and that its all okay. Im 22, my dad has been in and out of jail and prison my whole life for drugs and other stuff. He got out right before my 19th birthday and was doing really well till he met and married his wife, who i hate. I am just so upset that he would not be upfront with me he things that a felony is a misunderstanding and that everything is going to be okay. But my gut and intuition tells me i may never get to see him again a free man. He also has given up on trying to be there for my little brother. Who will be 6 and hasn't seen our dad for 3 years. I just dont know. Am I wrong to worry about him?

We can always worry and want to help those in our lives that have gotten themselves into trouble that often is hand in had with some addiction etc.
Of course he does not want you to worry .............and the rationalizations that things are misunderstandings and no big thing are not only for you he probably convinced himself of that as well. the thing is IF he were to change it has to be his idea to come clean and not kid you or himself where his life is headed. I am sorry about your and your brothers experience but you have front row seats to what not to do in life
