Why does my dad not love me anymore?

Im 11 and he's 31. My mom never cared for me so i always was tooken care of by my dad.. He was the only one who cared and loved me.. I live with him my uncle , and grandma.. for the past month he's been getting very.. mad.. because im lazy and for example : if i don't do my chores he keeps telling me that i dont love or care for him. Today he told me he was moving out and leaving me here with my uncle and grandma. I cried for 10 minutes , had to go downstairs while he packed up.. I tried to make my self throw up too.. Earler today he told me he didnt love me anymore but a hour later when i was crying he told me that he does love me.. and then he yelled at me because i didnt finish my Holocaust paper.. Then while i was drinking/shaking a bottle of water he was talking to my uncle (he is 17) that how i dont care if i fail 5th grade because im on that line now.. I feel really depressed and i just felt like to make myself throw up but i didnt do it yet..

    Awww sweety it's okay your dad is probably saying things he doesn't mean :( he probably mad because he wants you to make something out of your life but your being lazy. Try doing chores around your house and focusing a little on school.Also don't make yourself throw up it's bad for you i suggest you talk to someone before this becomes a very big problem. I hope this has at least helped you a little bit and i hope everything does OK with you and your family.

    Sweetheart, nothing in what you have wrote here gives me any indication whatsoever to support your claim that u don't think your dad loves you anymore. Perhaps, he has other things on his mind right now and although family should come first above all else, he may not be paying as much attention to you as he should right now, but it in no way means he doesn't love you anymore. Also I doubt your mom hated you as a child, she may have placed values on you at the time that are Chinese tradition, I do not know as I don't know what Chinese family traditions are except what you wrote, but you may want to sit her down and ask her. You're 14, why don't you sit down with your dad and tell him how you feel and let him answer your question...after all he is your dad and he will answer your question truthfully. Never be afraid to talk with your parents about anything, being calm and respectful of them at the same time. You will have many loves in your future but you will only have one mom and dad, and they both love you dearly, as you do them. Good luck and GOD bless.

    well first of all do not listen to the person who suggested you run away that person is an idiot!!! you will just get into more trouble and cause alot of problems and stress that niether of you need from the sounds of it! Your dad probably has some other issues going on in his life its not that he doesnt love u!! I wouldnt try to make yourself throw up either that isnt gonna solve anything. only thing that will do is make u feel physically worse if its an ongoing thing!! maybe you should ask your dad if he would be willing to go to counsiling with you? Go and talk with you school counsclor they might be able to help u out alot

    Wow your in the fifth grade and you figured out Yahoo Answers? You must be pretty smart. I have a fifth grade son and I can't imagine he would be able to create an account on Yahoo. Put a little more of that effort into your school work and you should be okay.

    Well your father will movie out, therefore for whatever reason, wish him well. He was

    pissed off cause you were not doing your chores. You won't change the way your father

    thinks. Your father seems to be having some problems at this time.

    Uh, don't make yourself throw up. That won't help anything. Why is your dad really leaving? I seriously doubt it's because he doesn't love you. A lot of this story does not add up...

    your dad actually loves you, your just lazy. he wants you to succeed in life in the future so he wants to change your way of thinking and actually care about your education.
