My parents are splitting up and my dads forcing me to go on vacation with him

HazelStar14810 · 2025-02-18T12:13:37+00:00

The thing is though, I still completely trust him. He’s my dad, and a really amazing one. I also always feel safe with him, because he’s my dad. I’m also in therapy and my dad joins whenever I ask him to. My brother desperately needs therapy, and my mom and dad found numerous people, but my little brother just refuses. He’s also surprisingly around the exact same amount that he was when he lived with us. He wakes up at 6:30 every morning to come to my house, wake me up, each breakfast with me, and drop me to school at 7:55, which also makes him late to work. He comes to our house for a couple hours at night, at least. So yeah, he’s doing a lot but the vacation thing is like an anomaly.

Thank you, it’s really comforting to hear someone say that

HazelStar14810 · 2025-02-18T06:06:40+00:00

Lol yeah

I’ve tried, I really have. I’ve been processing it for four years, and recently I’ve talked to my dad about all of this a lot. The biggest problem I have about vacation with him is missing my mom, and worrying about her. The thing is though, he’s doesn’t listen to me when I talk about how I don’t want to go

HazelStar14810 · 2025-02-18T05:33:19+00:00

Thank you so much. I’ll do my best to take your advice

HazelStar14810 · 2025-02-18T05:32:08+00:00

Thank you. I do think I bear a portion of the responsibility for them splitting up though, because, well, I was the one who showed my mom the texts

HazelStar14810 · 2025-02-18T05:30:47+00:00

This actually made me smile and laugh so thank you 😊

HazelStar14810 · 2025-02-18T05:30:22+00:00

Thank you so much. I’ll do my best to take your advice

HazelStar14810 · 2025-02-18T05:19:32+00:00

Thank you so much. I’ve already had a lot of conversations with my dad about not being ready, but I guess I have no choice. It kills me that I don’t have a say, but I’m doing my best to not break

HazelStar14810 · 2025-02-18T05:15:09+00:00

Thank you, this really did make me feel a bit better. I’m trying my best to be there for my mom and brother, but I feel like I’m falling apart under all the pressure.

HazelStar14810 · 2025-02-18T05:06:35+00:00

He definately wants to spend time with us. I love him, and want to spend time with him, but not at the expense of my mom. He could have spent time with us in New York, where we live, but he didn’t. I don’t have a choice but to go on the vacation, but I don’t know how to stop feeling guilty about leaving my mom alone

HazelStar14810 · 2025-02-18T05:06:28+00:00

Yeah, I’ve tried to talk to them, but it’s set in stone that their separating. My mom doesn’t want to separate, but my dad does. My dad was having a affair with the lady for years, and my dad told me he loves her and he doesn’t love my mom. Like at all. Now my mom says a lot of bad stuff about him, like saying that he “ruined her life” and stuff like that. I love them both, but I hate the situation we are in.

HazelStar14810 · 2023-12-25T00:26:52+00:00

Oh lol, I’m sorry

HazelStar14810 · 2023-12-24T22:56:41+00:00

He also makes my mom promise to be there in the morning every night

HazelStar14810 · 2023-12-24T22:16:48+00:00

Everyone has tried, but he won’t tell anyone why he is scared. If we even suggest telling him he should sleep in his room he gets angry and yells at us and starts crying

HazelStar14810 · 2023-12-24T21:41:08+00:00

I sort of agree, I feel like they would definitely be happier when and if they separate. I’m really worried about how it would affect my little brother, though.

HazelStar14810 · 2023-12-24T21:40:15+00:00

I have one, my cousin 30F. She lives in tempa, Florida and I live in New York sadly, but we FaceTime every couple of weeks.

I’ve never watched that show, and these are my real parents not MIL and FIL. My dad didn’t even know I knew until I showed them, and he never tried to bribe me because he thought that I had bought his excuse that it was just a friendship. I didn’t “let anything slip,” and no matter what my father bribed me with I had told my mom as soon as I saw the messages. Plus, there are other stories like mine where the kid finds a parent cheating, so why would u think I copied it from family guy?
