How can I get my Dad to treat me better?

I am 17 and i live with my dad. I got a job a few weeks after i moved in and since then he pays for nothing. I am barely home cause i work or my boyfriend takes me out to eat but when i am home i think he forgets he has to feed me…My dad is a cop and i know my boyfriend and i are 4 years apart in age. My boyfriend a nd i plan on getting married but we want to wait for a few more years we have been best friends for 4and 1/2 years. My dad does nothing to help me. The only thing he does is pay when i tell him he has to go to the school and its required. i have no emotional support and i am an old suicide victum. my boyfriend and i want to get a little 2 bed room apartment by pitt so i can go to middle college instead of high school. we have everything planned i just dont know how to get away from my dad…he has never been there for me and mom can say that but my mom is not a good person to be with eithr because she is not stable..What should i do???

Answer #1

I think because you are 17 you are old enough to think rationally. First of all you and your boyfriend have been together for so long, since you were about 13 i would imagine. I dont think it isa good idea to move in with him right off the back. If your dad is that unbearable, i would suggest moving out on your own or getting a roommate because you never know if the relationship with you and your boyfriend is going to last as long as the both of you anticipate.

well my dad is the same way. he doesnt pay any attention to me at all. it sux so i knw ho wit can fell. my dad is very depressed man whoowns his own business. i jus found out tht im pregnant so idk how to tell him yet but like i said hes not involved at all. and my mom is an alcoholic so…both homes are bad. my bf of a year and me are talking about moving in together now tht were having a baby. but if i were you…i would move in with ur man if ur dad is real bad. ur old enuf to knw all the consequences. jus play ur cards right, and plan everything
