Ok just today I hate my dad. Today we went shopping at mars and we bought a ton of stuff and once we got back, he left for working in his cab and i had to carry everything including 3 boxes of soda. I fell, dropped the soda, and my arms and legs were aching soo badly. Another thing my dad never takes care of me ever all he cares about is his job in his cab and money and he blames me for having a bad education when he never cares about me or helps me with homework. but.....

Well Mika, Maybe I change my mind now that your mom had surgery. your mom needs you, she needs you to help her do things around the house, and like Paul does he visits his dad every now and then. My parents got a divorce when I was about 5 years old I live with my dad and see my mom every other weekend. and she comes over 1 day a week after work. then I didn't have a choice because I was so young. but know I think you should stay with your mom and help her even if it is a lot of work, she needs you there.

Awww, I know how you feel. My parents have actually been in the process of getting a divorce for two and a half years now. I would stay with my mom, because she well was the one who gave birth to me, and pay casual visits to my father.

I guess I'd go with whomever you feel safest with. By that I mean, parents may not always make much sense to you, and they may seem MEAN and have a temper. But do you feel safe? If so, I'd go with your Mom as she may be better able to provide for you and teach you other things. If you do not feel safe with her, then go with your Dad as putting things where they belong is a simple thing...putting broken bones and hearts back...that's not so simple.

Mika,
Hey...I've been through this before. And it's one of the hardest things to decide, because it forces you to be more of an adult than you should have to be. So...I'll give you the advice that helped me choose.
Don't just look at the house and tempers, look at who is more responsible, I guess. Who can teach you the best habbits. Normally, the way they keep the house is one of the biggest indicators, because it shows who's more organized. From just this, I would say your mom. You might get into more fights, but she could help teach you better habbits. Also, who can you count on to be there for you, I guess. Which one can you count on to come to a play or something, or who do you know will always manage to make time to come to something important to you. Who can provide the most support in your life?
From experience, I can tell you it's going to be hard. This is most likely going to force you to look at your parents in ways you never would have before. You'll want to go with the one who is the most fun, and promises the most freedom, but there's so much more to look at than that.
If you need any more help, just email me, okay? I've had to choose twice now...first, when they originally got divorced, and then when I turned fifteen, and was allowed to decide for myself if I wanted to change which parent I lived with, or even if I moved in with another relative. So...I hope I've helped. If you need anything, or need anyone to talk to about the divorce, I'm more than willing to listen. Consider it one survivor of divorced parents to another. ^.^ Good luck, Mika.
Forever,
Debra Rose

if your mom is mean to you i wouldn't go with her i would go with your dad and knock some sense into him and tellhim what is going to happen if he dosn't do anything.
