maybe it's a dad thing since my dad tried to do the whole "confront your fears" thing with me once (except it involved a thunderstorm) it didn't help at all since I was just freaking out the whole time and he did get frustrated and stopped. Generally speaking though he's always been really gentle about those sorts of thing, I think at the time he just underestimated just how bad my phobia was. (at least he's better then my brother who used to exploit my fears and didn't stop even though my parents didn't like it when he did that.) I've also had my step-dad storm off on numerous occasions and it is really childish but he only does that because he believes that if he does stick around in those situations he'd lose it and he doesn't want that to happen.
