Is this allowed Islamically if there is no fear of fitnah?

Q: Sometimes I wear slightly short or tight clothing at home, e.g.: 3/4 pants or a t-shirt who's length isn't completely over my buttocks. However my aw0ah is always covered. I don't even wear sleeveless. However, my father says that this is wrong and disrespectful because we live with my brother and grandfather. He always makes me change. Please advise if this is wrong or disrespectful and if I'm allowed to dress like this in my own home. Outside I wear hijab
