Been living with my mom all my life, when I was 2 my dad walked out on me. I'm 16 now and he recently came back into my life about a year and a half ago. My dad is extremely cool and even though my entire life I've harbored hatred for him I've forgave him and he's like my best friend. We get along great, we like the same things all that stuff. I hang out with him quite a bit and what not. Well, about 8 months ago I moved in with my grandparents who are horrible people, along with my mom and younger brother. My grandma is an antagonist and loves to make me mad, my mom yells at me for no reason just because my brother stresses her out and she takes it out on me. My grandpa always tells me that what I like doing and other things like that is a waste of time and I ought to play sports and ****. My brother drives me up the damn wall, I honestly wish he was never born.
I can't stand living here, alls there is is yelling non-stop. I have nowhere to just lock myself up in because I am forced to share a room with my brother. I try to go hang with friends as much as possible but the people in my neighborhood that I call my friends aren't exactly the greatest bunch and I'd rather not hang out with them and pick up their bad habits. Just stayed the entire week with my dad since I was on vacation and it was great. It's just him and I at his house since he lives by himself. No yelling , no stress, nothing. For awhile now I've been considering wanting to move in with my dad but I dunno if I should. My mom has raised me and taken care of me since I was born and I'd feel really bad if I just left her and moved in with my dad. Lately I've been starting not to care though mainly because **** just seems to get worse here. I have way more fun at my dads than I ever do here. He dropped me off not too long ago and I got a little emotional just because I knew I was back here and my life was back to being shitty. I'm not sure what to do, lots of thngs would be different if I lived with him and I'd have to give up a couple things too. Not really sure what to do at all, any advice?
I understand my claim seems rather selfish but I left out some info that I feel didn't need to be put in their. I only live with my grandparents because they needed financial help so my mother made us move in to help out. They are horrible people, you've never met them. My brother, yeah what I said I agree is harsh but I don't really care. I've also already discussed things with my dad and he's completely fine with it all, so yeah, sorry for leaving all of that out.

You story seem very selfish and self centered. First of all, will your dad let you or want you living at his house? You need to know this. Secondly, Right now your immediate family (mom and her children) don't have a home. You living off your grandparents and in their home. I said selfish and self centered because you called Grandparents Antagonist and horrible people. You said your brother stresses you out , that you hate him, and that you wish he was never born (same as dead)! You called your friends people that "not the greatest people and you rather not hang out with them".. You are nearly a man now and will be expected to pay your own way in life in less than 2 years. You need to make the correct decision NOW that will put you in a position to get to college, get a degree , get a great job, and get your mother and family out of your grandmothers house and into their own place. You only talk about yourself and what is good for you! That is why I called you selfish. You mother is going through some hard times now and your the man of that family yet you still talk like an immature boy. You should consider moving in with your dad if it takes an additional load off the family (and mother) talking care of you. Making the right decision in this case needs some mature thought and what would be better for your family.. You talk about the first man running out on your mom, now you sound like the second man running out on her.. Like father like son huh? I doubt you will understand what I am trying to tell you but I can only hope!

It matters about what you want. Not what others want. It's your life - only you can control it. Move in with your Dad if you want to. As for your situation with your grandparents and mom and brother, you'll have to come back to that eventually. Whatever problem you may come across, you'll never get away from it until you do something about it.

Do what makes you happy to be happy your going to have to give up some stuff. And just talk to your mom about it and how you feel tell her the benefits about moving in with your dad, but before you do that talk to your dad about you moving in with him

just do what makes YOU happy. tell ur mom exactly how ur feeling, and tell her u think it would be best if u lived with ur father. if she truly cares and wants u to be happy, no matter how painful it will be, she'll let u. be sure to promise ull call her everyday tho and stuff like that. and make sure u tell her u love her and ur grateful for everything shes done for u
goodluck!

hi I certainly have basically reverted to Islam, in fact in basic terms 2 days in the past and the thought-approximately telling my buddies and kinfolk is petrifying me so a video could be a great thought. I certainly have desperate to in basic terms artwork on myself for now and learn as much as i will till now I tell my kinfolk.
