Create,

You say your father often accuses you of being inconsiderate. I don't know if you are or not, but often young people have no idea how much work it takes to run a household, especially one with two toddlers. I have two toddlers now, and I assure you I had no idea! You might find that such gestures as making sure your dad knows where you are going and when you are coming back or helping out with the cleaning chores or offering to do some babysitting could go a long ways to smoothing the tension. Maybe you could suggest cooking a meal together or helping wash his car or some other useful activity that will demonstrate that you are thinking about being thoughtful towards him as well as give you some "normal" time to just hang out together.

Good luck, and please let us know how it goes!
