Does your Dad have a Website or could you make one for him? If you could get a few clients, starting with your Dad and maybe some of his larger customers' businesses you might be able to set up a Wesite development company?

Some people have eBay businesses. I'm retired and thinking of trying that; buying things and reselling them on eBay. Maybe your Dad has some product he needs or makes you could sell online/eBay? "Kits" of some sort? I'm a customer and now "friends" with this guy:

He's a police officer and trying to start his business on the side.

Read the Classified and Job Posting forum below; there's a couple ideas in there that might work for you?

My dad has a website and my mom attends to that for him.
He just wants me to do hard physical labor and I dont wanna do that
I cant work in the hot weather i get too lightheaded and stuff.

I just wanna be happy doing what I wanna do...and not what he wants me to do.

Why do you want to work from home? Why not try to get a regular job that you go to. Working for family isn't always the best set up, because it's hard to separate family and work issues.

Is there any way I can work at home on the internet?

Because it's hard for me to sleep at night, and I'd rather get paid when I'm up then working a full time job when I'm half awake workin on 2 hours of sleep. Is there any way I can work at home on the internet? and I'm ALWAYS stressed ( chest pains, headache ) and physical labor isnt the best for me.

Do you have an opportunity to go to college (night classes if that's when you can stay awake)? Chances of finding a job like what you are wanting might be better with an education.

Good luck.

if you dont want to work regular hours why not look for a job for the hours you are awake

its cooler in evenings andat night

and after about a mth of doing work at these hours might help you sleep

Going to school even part time sounds like a great idea. If you are interested in social working, why not volunteer at a local school, hospital, or assisted living facility?

You'll do great!
