So my dad just kicked down the door to my room, got into a fight with my mom and is now deciding that after over 30 years of marriage to my mom, he wants to get a divorce and is going to leave our family, stop making payments to our house so it will get foreclosed on and his own flesh and blood will be (at least in his mind) forced to live out on the street... all because I decided not to use the Buy One Get One free coupon he gave me on an errand to go get my mom a Whopper from Burger King. Methinks he'll probably cool down and start being rational after he gets enough time to cool off, but this is just ridiculous. The entire reason I locked the door to my room and ignored him in the first place was because he was acting nasty and I didn't want to deal with it. Mom thinks he's acting mentally ill, but I think he's just being childish. Temper tantrums and histrionic dramatic behaviour are par for the course for him and always have been. He'll probably knock off the bullshit after a few days max. I just cannot fathom him seriously getting a divorce and leaving his family to live on the street OVER A BURGER KING WHOPPER. If he really does do that, he IS mentally ill.
