Parents and living situation

Okay…So Here is my situation My mom and dad are divorced…I lived with my mom, she is a single parent so its been hard the last three years… weve been moving in with my aunt and her family… there are my aunt and uncle, and three kids, that are nine, fourteen, and fifteen. I dont get along with my aunt at all she is like the biggest bi*ch and she is sooo mean to me… my mom never sticks up for me…they make up dumb rules that I have to follow and its just dumb there… I hate it there. and all day from after school untill 9-10 at night or sometimes over night im with my boyfriend and his family because they understand and I have my own room and stuff here.. I love it here… then on the other hand I could go live with my dad… my older brother who is 18 lives there and so does my sister who is thirteen… but his house is really little and its not all that clean.. like its not nasty but lets say its a mens house. I would perfer not to live there but I dont know… I want to live with my mom but I want to live in our own house.. She would be able to but since she makes a lot more money than my dad she has to pay about 200 dollars in child support and she has to keep health insurance on all of us kids through her work which is also expensive… I dont know what to do anymore… I really dont want to be either places they both stress me out and make me unhappy.

Any advice?

Answer #1

Well, if you’re underage, then living with your boyfriend’s family 24/7 is out of the question.

So, now you have to straighten out your priorities. Would you rather live at your aunt’s place and deal with them being mean to you and making up rules for you to follow, or, would you rather live peacefully at your Dad’s place even though the place is small and untidy?

To me, living with your Dad sounds like a better deal for you. It the uncleanliness bothers you, it doesn’t hurt to help clean up; or make a cleaning roster that you, your Dad, and your siblings have to follow so that at least the house is decent.

Your Mom is working very hard to help give you all a relatively comfortable life, this is her sacrifice because she still loves all of her kids very much. You should weather it out at your Dad’s while your Mom slowly saves enough money to rent a small apartment so that you can go live with her.

It’s important that you discuss this with your Mom, and maybe you Mom has some better options for you?
