So. Without trauma dumping, I'll simply say my dad is a bad dad. What's a father's day gift that says "you're dead to me, but I'm still doing things to keep drama at bay"?

A short text the day after Father's Day. Then you did send something, it just wasn't timely or appreciative.

That said, I generally send my shitty dad a text on the actual day. It usually just says, "Happy Father's Day, have a good one." Last year I forgot to send one and then, when I remembered, chose not to.

TL;DR: do as much or as little as you want.
