So yeah, I been trying to work shit out with my parents to no avail. I honestly don't know what the fuck to do. My logical side is all like "dubbya tee eff man?! Get the hell out of here before you go crazy... er." But my stupid side is all "You can't just leave, that would be mean blah blah blah..." So I'm leaning more toward my logical side now, only problem is telling my parents about it. I'm really sincerely trying very hard not to just walk up to them and be like "You fucked up my life, I hate you, go die in a ditch, I'm leaving and I'm never coming back." Should I even tell them or should I wait till the last minute? I don't know anymore.
You're not a failure. You haven't even left the starting gate yet. Honestly, I think you should wait until the last minute. Otherwise, I foresee a lot of guilt tripping, a lot of "you can't just leave"s, things like that. I wouldn't give them a chance to run those by you. Have you considered talking to the authorities about your siblings? Lex
Thanks again for the advice Lexington, and my parents have finally agreed to send the kids up to live with my aunt in Wisconsin. So at least I know they'll be alright
That's fantastic news. Is there a timeframe set for that yet? And do you have a timeframe set for YOU yet? Lex
Ok, I was confused for a minute when Lex mentioned "siblings" but its all coming back to me now. (and so is Celine's song) Anyway, that is great that the siblings are going to live with your aunt! However, I would not end the relationship with your parents in a way that can't be repaired in the future. They are not well and not healthy. Say your piece but leave the door open for future healing.
They'll be sending the kids up at the start of the school year. As for me I'm waiting to see if I'm going to get this job I applied for. If not, my older brother can get me a job working with him.
Cool deal. Wait until the money is IN place, your new home is set to go, and all you have to do is grab your stuff and go. Keeping working towards that. Lex
