Hello,

You can hide that stuff from him. Go to Settings --> Privacy Settings --> Profile Information --> Find what you want to hide from him --> Click on the the button and select "Customize" from the drop down --> Hide from this people --> Type the name of your dad.

Also to hide his statuses from him, go to the 'What's on your mind?' box and click on the little padlock at the right. Select Customize and hide it from him.

What you cannot hide from him is when you became a fan of a page, when you add a new friend or when you write on someone else's wall.

The Official Facebook Team wrote:Information about Recent Activity
Whether we display a story on your profile is now controlled by the privacy of the content itself, rather than an additional setting. For example, only people who can see both your Wall, and the Wall to which you posted would be able to see a story about you writing on a friend’s Wall. You cannot completely turn off recent activity stories anymore. However, if you want to remove a particular story that currently shows up, simply click the “Remove” button that appears to the right of the story after you move your mouse over it.

Have a great day.
