My Embarrassing Dad

(4)

THEME 1TEENAGE YEARS What do you think? Have you ever been embarrassed by your parents?

You are embarrassing me, Dad!

I have a problem these days. When I was a kid, I was always happy to go on walks in the park with my dad. I even held hands with him! I could see lots of other kids around, but I didn’t care. Now it’s different. I notice things about my dad that I didn’t notice when I was younger.

For example, he’s always wearing these funny black pants. He thinks they are comfortable, but I think they make him look like he’s from a different planet. They are very tight and fuzzy. When he walks, his pants make a

“SWISH” sound. Other kids have fathers who wear jeans or a suit. That’s normal. Why does my dad have to wear these weird pants?

My dad has a really loud voice. We were in a crowded mall with lots of good looking girls, and he yelled to me, “Did you drink your milk today?” I could have died!

Last week, a girl from school invited me to her birthday party. It was a dance party and girls were going to be

there. I was stoked! So the day of the party came, and my dad took me to the party in his car.

His car is embarrassing too! It is a rusty brown car with a big crack in the windshield. It is really loud, just like my dad, and it stinks of gasoline. I asked Dad to drop me off far away from my classmate’s house, so nobody would see me… and him.
