AWWW< much hugs! In my opinion, if I was told I would have to choose, I would choose neither. Frankly, if they can't get along together I don't want to be with either one, they aren't an example I want to follow, I don't want anyone fighting over me. But if you have to I would go with you mom, she seems healthier than you dad, don't go to him, he sounds dangerous, and certainly will not make you blossom into a beautiful adult. Another possibility, is to see if you could move in with a grandparent or other relative. Best of luck, and feel free to cry on my shoulder!  |

From what you have said,I would say your mom is the one that would be best to move in with.  |

i think you should choose your mom... unless you can find a way for your dad to stop drinking  |

It would be only my guess, but perhaps your mothers distance to you was because she too suffered from the emotional abuse of your father and "zoning" out in the tv was her way of dealing with it..maybe..just maybe..she will show more of an interest in your life without your dad around...But if I had to choose, I would rather be ignored than be emotionally abused which is what your father has done...God bless you...Charlie Girl |

How sad for you to have to make such a hard decision. Based on what you have told us- it seems like it would be safer and better for you to go with your mother. I'm sorry your options aren't better. I wish you well.  |

I think it would be better to stay with your Mom... you might find her a totally 'different' person without your father around being verbally abusive all the time... She sounds repressed. I also would be afraid that Dad's anger toward Mom leaving may would make him cross that line to physical abuse.... This is really tough, you didnt say where you were moving from... nor how long you have been there. Good luck to you honey... and please keep us posted because we DO care!!!! Huge hugggggssss for you!!!!!  |
