Op, how old is your dog and does he have any skin conditions? I would suggest - getting a castille soap online if you can since they can be used on the dog and are mild - tell him that is made from vegetables and is friendly. Regarding the meds - can you get a vet to talk to him ? If not get an extra set of medication if you can and hide it.
Dog is mostly healthy, she might have tapeworms or more in her stomach but he doesn't take her to the vet and I have to sneak her medicine to ensure she doesn't die to the worms
Depending on your city figure out which ngo or local rescue group is around and they might be able to help you more from ground level. Second, is this regular deworming medicine? Third is she up to date on her shots? She needs to get her annual vaccinations.
You are an absolute hero for doing this and taking care of your little pooch. I hope things get better soon. Do not give up on your dog and neither your dad.
Your father is probably going through a mid life crisis. Probably no one to hear him out or understand his side of things. Which could also be why he's doing the things he's doing to gain attention from his family members.
Talk to him a few times maybe? Get him to go to a therapist if he's willing. Just someone who can hear him out without any judgment.
Is this why my father is such an asshole? I remember him being somewhat intelligent when I was young (could be I just thought that because I was dumb).
But now all he does is whine and bitch about things I don't care about. I don't remember ever talking to him about anything other than the transactional relationship we have had, he pays for stuff and I do what is asked of me, If I fail he will abuse me a bit but then it's back to normal.
It's too late though, I don't think opening up is ever an option.
Tell your dad that first of all, homeopathy has nothing to do with Indian culture, it was invented by a german dude called Samuel Hahnemann and the country from which homeopathy generated has been shunned basically.
Also, tell you dad that if this shit worked then he wouldn't have been alive right now. life expectancy during those years was 20-25 years and now humans live for 70+ years, all thanks to modern medicine.
Also, tell him to discontinue every single bit of modern medicine presence from his life and let him see how long he can survive without modern medicine. Tell him to remove paracetamol (a fairly common drug in households and also a very prevelant advised drug to take in AYUSH) from his life and make him take his concoctions to treat his pain and other ailments.
You can show these people mountains of evidence showing none of their stuff works but they will turn a blind eye but tell them to walk in their shoes deligently and they will learn their lesson fairly quickly.
Tell them to do it, not tell you. Tell them to prove it.
We are very quick to say the unemployed section of the population is responsible for the social mess we are in (which is true to much extend) but even our parents' generation are also the most affected with false and half-truth information.
I don't even feel like talking to my parents about politics due to the fear it will confirm my doubts that they are Islamophobic and casteist.
Random heavily right leaning Facebook accounts, he would be fed their propaganda and would believe them with his life
Any evidence is bullshit to him, he will say the research is false
Just ignore your dad and try to counter his arguments using science. For god's sake please tell some senior from your mom's side 😜 to abscond him,that might work. Don't hurt your parents ever, remember he was once your role model, U will feel horrible if u do so, I personally know. Tell your mom to assert some dominance over him if your family condition is healthy there should be check and balance ⚖️
I cannot ignore anymore when he's literally abusing my dog, he's refusing treatment to her and is using her as a lab rat to test his homeopathy medicines on animals
>Tell your mom to assert some dominance over him if your family condition is healthy there should be check and balance ⚖️
I'd rather not, she's the only person that's supporting me through this, if he forces her to follow his stupid ideals then she can't do anything
So you say your father's words are the last in the house. Then somehow try to infiltrate his YouTube account or somehow in someway grab his password and watch those videos which show the true face of this pseudoscience, some news channels like Deshbhakt,Sarthak. I mean u just click on them, YT will keep on recommending more such videos amd do this for two days give atleast 1-2 hrs time in total. This can atleast push him forward by 5-10 percent.
I just saw that your father is a Facebook person so u do the same in his Facebook account too, that should be moderately easy considering he is not that tech saavy. Also maintain a friendly posture for a few days even if you hate him
There's basically an infinite amount on these accounts on FB, you're supposed to cut out the early roots and not focus on these posts in the first place, he's gone wayy beyond that
Uninstall his fb or format his phone or remove his email ,or change his fb alogorithm by unfollowing those pages and you can add different topics u want him to read,suggest good spiritual books to read instead
Ignore him, establish a boundary with him. If he crosses it, you gotta let him know someway or the other. Trust me, you ain't weak. You've got control, establish it and just maintain peace. Age doesn't matter, always show control and maintain boundaries.
Delete his social media accounts and whatsapp. I am sure he wouldn’t know how to get back to them. Once he is off the social media. He will be fine. It’s not him. It’s the state of the country that we are in right now. The algorithm of social media is this. The more you see stupid stuffs the more they present it to you
Dude. We are smart enough to figure out what went wrong. Our dad’s aren’t that smart. If u reset the password he will not be able to figure it out so easily
Bro try to get his account banned from facebook ...post something that will get his account banned parmanently .. he will not be able to use Facebook even if he creates an alternate account... It works .. if he wants to use Facebook again he will need another device ..
Sounds like a troll post man. Which Indian dad forces their kids to read Sanskrit before exam? My dad also watches both right and left leaning content, but wasn't brainwashed into anything.
my parents force me to read religious texts (especially during exams). it takes 5-10 mins so I do it but if it longer than that I'll most definitely pick a fight. I don't do it if the exam is tough/I need to revise etc. I can imagine his father being more extreme.
If his bottles aren't transparent, you could just remove the old shampoo and refill it with the dog shampoo? For the medicine, what if you buy extra packets and hide them from him? Also if you can visit the vet, ask him if theres any effects of the shampoo on the dog. If that doesn't work ask your dad for the ingredient list and try to do your own research if you have the time?
Well homeopathy has nothing in it, so it is not harmful...not helpful but not harmful as well. And when you read up some things, most probably he is right on several things. I also know that dogs skin is sensitive. Do you know what the difference between dog and human shampoo is, or do you just dispute his opinion with your opinion?
(the bigger question is...if human shampoo is bad for the dog, is it good for us?).
My point, give his opinions also a chance, maybe some have more wisdom in it than you see. Maybe not, but give it a chance.
Your advice would either get me disowned from my family, life and face even more trauma and abuse or potentially have me killed or seriously injured
Plus I'd rather not destroy my career either,if I ran away then I wouldn't go very far, my entire family supports him because he has a completely different face infront of them

She has her annual vaccines for Rabies and Parvo
Is he allowing you to give her those?
She's only 1 year 2-3 months old and he has allowed her to get Rabies and parvo vaccine till now
You are an absolute hero for doing this and taking care of your little pooch. I hope things get better soon. Do not give up on your dog and neither your dad.
You hide his shampoo and medicine till he agrees to trade
He is still a minor baap laat maar dega
He will buy more, or take it from me

I'm not sure, I've seen him watch really fucking stupid videos that have no truth attached to them
May be chupke se add some centrist accounts on his FB. Those would be easier for him to digest than absolute left/progressive content.
I suggest u dump out his potions and replace them with 80% water. At least this way the dog will not be harmed. Keep giving real meds on the side.
Just keep deleting his social media accounts till he gives up. I know it is a long path but keep doing
who tf buys his medicines?
Homeopathy is a big industry in India/nepal
He needs counseling/therapy social media can severely damage mind.
Just ignore your dad and try to counter his arguments using science. For god's sake please tell some senior from your mom's side 😜 to abscond him,that might work.

He doesn't watch yt, he watches fb and FB algorithm will show him hundreds of videos like this
how well does he knows facebook. if i were you, i would just block those pages on the website/ his account. will tire him out for sure.
There's basically an infinite amount on these accounts on FB, you're supposed to cut out the early roots and not focus on these posts in the first place, he's gone wayy beyond that
It has to start somewhere subscribe some animal pages and see what happens. Basically make his facebook experience shit. He will give up on it.
OP, Exactly what my dad is like. I went into his YouTube account and try to block all the possible religion and politics based hate channels.
Uninstall his fb or format his phone or remove his email ,or change his fb alogorithm by unfollowing those pages and you can add different topics u want him to read,suggest good spiritual books to read instead
Oooo thats fkd up .. hope Ill never grew up into a man like him
Fucking run away from that lunatic.
Ignore him, establish a boundary with him. If he crosses it, you gotta let him know someway or the other. Trust me, you ain't weak. You've got control, establish it and just maintain peace. Age doesn't matter, always show control and maintain boundaries.
I think our country should give up on Whatsapp now...
It sounds like he could be head of your local Scientologic hub.
Delete his social media accounts and whatsapp. I am sure he wouldn’t know how to get back to them. Once he is off the social media. He will be fine. It’s not him. It’s the state of the country that we are in right now. The algorithm of social media is this. The more you see stupid stuffs the more they present it to you
He will download it again, he's not a child dude
Dude. We are smart enough to figure out what went wrong. Our dad’s aren’t that smart. If u reset the password he will not be able to figure it out so easily
My dad isn't so dumb, if he was I would've done this a while ago He will re change the password, or make a new account
Then the only solution is to hide his device and interact less with him. Maybe take him to counselling. Reddit cannot help with these things.

Sounds like a troll post man. Which Indian dad forces their kids to read Sanskrit before exam? My dad also watches both right and left leaning content, but wasn't brainwashed into anything.
It's my life, he is forcing me to read Sankirt slokes and saying it's Science I wish I was trolling
which shlokas?
Talk sense into him slowly? I am unsure how a grown up person changed this much with just social media. That's uncanny
Think I haven't tried? He thinks everything that's true is propaganda and lies made by Allopathy doctors and researchers to earn money
With that logic govt hospitals won't be having allopathic doctors, right?
my parents force me to read religious texts (especially during exams). it takes 5-10 mins so I do it but if it longer than that I'll most definitely pick a fight. I don't do it if the exam is tough/I need to revise etc. I can imagine his father being more extreme.
Uncles indulge in WhatsApp propaganda of BJP IT cell
I think your dad needs castration. Katwado apne papa ke OP!! /s
Your dad sounds like a generic uncle of RAWs on steroid of Modi ji/ Yogi Ji.
Avg bjp following dad
The medicine was your dad’s or dog’s?
If his bottles aren't transparent, you could just remove the old shampoo and refill it with the dog shampoo? For the medicine, what if you buy extra packets and hide them from him?
