Do Men Suck At Friendship?

On the other hand, it's not your responsibility to arrange for your dad what you think is best for him. He's an adult and will try to make the most of his life and will succeed or fail to be happy on his own.

I'm a father and I wouldn't want my kids to patch my lonely life if I have one: they have their own lives and I have mine and it's certainly nice to see them sometimes but it can never be a deal breaker.

It's not OP's responsibility - but love is love, and wanting the best for your parents is not a bad thing at all.

Actually, I would consider that making it my responsibility. I love my father. He made sacrifices for me, I will return the favor if I have to.

The OP can't "make" his/her father do things, however they can suggest things. They implied the father wants to/is open to new experiences.
