This won’t be seen, I am too late to the party but...
I hate it when people in the media try to label you as an ungrateful child. When your dad said that "this was the immature actions of my daughter whom I still financially support" really killed me.
What people who have not experienced themselves don't understand is that people who abuse like this, it is about an addiction to control. He wants to control you. When he is unable to convince you that you need his control, he physically or verbally manipulates you to feel otherwise. The Mercedes is a perfect example. He purposely chose a car that you could not afford because he was using it as a control method. When you tell him you want to be on your own, he lashes out to the extent that you just give in because it is easier to comply than put up with the torture.
Your father is sick, manipulative control freak. I hope he never is allowed to judge again. I am sorry you, you sister, and your mom had to endure that. If anythng, I think you are very brave.
