I'm sorry that this is long. I need to type all this so you get a good unerstanding of my situation, I'm 17 and my dad has a history of drinking. He has attacked my mom verbally and physically a couple time, both drunk and sober. I swear I just can't deal with this anymore. He was swearing today about some idiotic c**p just a few minutes ago. He's a pathetic loser.Just seeing him with a drink in his hand upsets me very much. I was having a really good day today as well, until he came home. This happens every single time I have really good days. I hate him for this. My mom just puts up with it. She tells me she can't do anything about it and it's his problem. I do agree, but she doesn't realize that it doesn't mean she has to take it. A couple weeks ago he went out driving while drunk. You can imagine how worried and angry I was. I told my mom and again she said it was his problem and just ignored it. However he could of killed himself or somebody else. That was our problem, my mom just didn't want to accept it was. I realized just how friggen crazy my parents are. My birthday is in May and hopefully I can save enough money to leave. Seriously this whole thing just makes me sad and sick. I can't help my parents because that isn't my job. They are adults and they need to solve their own problems. I'm the son about to legally be an adult who has his own problems to worry about. I do care about my parents and I wish I could help them, but it simply isn't possible. If my mom wants to stay with my dad I can't change her mind, even if he does drink and might get abusive. He hasn't really been abusive now but he just has problems. So that's it. What am I supposed to do about all of this?
