Hello, here is a kind of easy but confusing sentence for me to understand, so could you help me analyze it.
Do not treat me like your father!
I know that it is an easy one but I think that I can understand it in two ways.
1) Someone treats me, considering me to be his / her father although I am not.
2) Someone treats me in a similar way his / her father treats me.
Can I analyze the sentence like this or native English speakers do not think like that?
I know that I should consider contexts first of all and I will but I want to open all possibilities. Could you help me
out please.
Thank you in advance.
