Dad, I love you dearly. I really really do. I am going to be absolutely devastated when you die, which hopefully won't be for a long time.
And I know you love me, and are protective of me. I get it. I realize that I'll always be your little girl. I realize that you will never treat me the same as you treat my brother, just because I'm a girl and he's a guy. I'm not thrilled, but I'm not going to fight it any more, because it's just the way you are.
But...really...I'm not stupid. I'll grant that I'm spacey, and completely ignorant about some things...but I'm not stupid. I've managed to live my life on my own and deal with my problems just fine for the last 10 years that I've been on my own. I am capable of assessing situations and making good judgments. I am capable of determining, together with DH, the best course of action for myself and for us. I do not need you to lecture me, over and over and over, about certain things. I realize that there are dangers in the world, but I refuse to live my life being scared of my own shadow. Now, will you please...PLEASE...stop lecturing me like I am 15 and living under your roof. And, for the record, saying things over and over and speaking over me...even if done in a reasonable tone of voice...does not go very far in persuading me to your point of view. And, shockingly, as a thinking adult I am capable of evaluating the same information and coming to a different conclusion than you. You are just going to have to deal with that. ...so stop lecturing...and stop talking long enough to listen...at least while I'll still give you the courtesy of trying to explain...cuz you're getting dangerously close to the point where I will just deal with the situation by not discussing anything with you.

I would give anything to relive my life with a dad who cares and protects and loves me, because those things probably helped make you the sensible, self-sufficient person you are. Without that, life is always a struggle. I'm only half the person I was truly meant to be, because I lacked that.
You can choose to disregard all his advice, but please keep in mind he loves you and you're fortunate for that.

Oh, aye. I love him immensely, and I am grateful for his love and concern. And his advice and guidance. I don't mean to be ungrateful.
But, that said, it doesn't mean it doesn't grate on me sometimes. Or that there aren't times (and certain situations) when he can be a little overbearing. Or that sometimes I just need to vent...which doesn't mean that I love him or appreciate him any less...just that he gets on my nerves sometimes, as family often does.
That's the wonderful thing about people you love, and family in particular--that odd quality of both loving them and wanting to scream in frustration/throttle them at the same time. LOL. And, of course, laughing about the dichotomy.
