Mom plays with the babies all the time, But my dog which happens to be the daddy absolutely hates being around his baby. We are keeping one of his pups and we are currently crate and house training her. But if she even come close to him he runs and hides...We would like them to start bonding seeing as they will be with eachother for quite awhile...Thanks any help is greatly appreciated!
Answer
This is normal. Males generally don't bond with the puppies like the mothers do.
I think some more research on breeding needs to be done before you breed again, as this is common knowledge among reputable breeders. Get a breeding mentor with the kennel club you are registered with, and take all of their advice, as they are well experienced and can tell you what you need to do to be a reputable breeder.

Answer
Unfortunately, it's your parents' house, your parents' money and your parents' rules - until you have a job and get out on your own. Ask them to let you get an easier pet to start and show them that you can take care of that properly. Maybe they'd let you get a rabbit or a guinea pig - they're not as much fun as a dog, but they're easy to keep, live in a cage, don't have to be walked or trained. You could volunteer at a local shelter - many of them love to have kids that can help walk, feed and socialize the puppies.
Dogs require a lot of time, energy and money to take care of properly. If the dog isn't properly trained, it can chew up your house and your stuff. If it's not housebroken, it can ruin your floors and your furniture. Your parents may assume that you'll get bored with the dog when you start playing sports and dating and go away to college. You can't keep a dog in a dorm or in most apartments. They don't want to be stuck taking care of a dog for 12 years if you can't handle it.
A good pup can cost $1000 or more. Even "free" dogs cost money to take care of. A crate, books and supplies can cost up to $300. Puppy shots are $200, then $100 a year for boosters. Annual Heartworm test and preventative medication $100. Professional trainer $600 and up. Going on vacation? Boarding kennel $40/day. Spaying? $250. If you can't afford to pay for a good dog, maybe you can't afford to maintain one either?
BEFORE you get any dog you should read some great books on training. (Try not to pick books randomly - there are a lot of bad books out there also!) These are some of my favorites and you can get them on Amazon.com

If they ever say yes, find a good breeder by going to www.akc.org or talking to people at dog shows. You can also find info about the breed clubs on the akc site - they probably have a rescue group where you can get an older dog for less money. The best breeders will be members of their breed club, promoting healthy dogs with great temperaments. They should ask you a bunch of questions to make sure their puppy will be getting a good home. If all a "breeder" seems to care about is whether your check will clear, you can be sure he won't care a week later when the pup is dying from distemper or parvo and you want your money back.
Whatever you do, DON'T go to a pet shop, a flea market or buy one sight-unseen off the Internet!!!! You'll pay top dollar for what is usually a poor quality puppy mill dog. And you'll be supporting one of the cruelest industries in the country. The breeding animals are often kept in deplorable conditions - spending their entire lives in small wire-bottomed cages. They probably haven't been vaccinated against contagious diseases or tested for any health or temperament problems or genetic diseases - that costs money and cuts into their profits. A female is often bred every time she comes into heat. When her poor little body can't take it any more, she is often clubbed in the head and tossed into a dumpster or an open ditch. Most puppy mills ship their pups to pet stores at wholesale prices and many pups die before they even get there.
