When I still tried to reason with my father, he would exclaim that he cannot break from the views of his father. This happened whenever answering one of my questions would trap him in acknowledging reality. He acted like it was disrespectful of his parents. He always doubles down upon feeling cognitive dissonance. It hurts my heart.
