What do i do? my family is dysfunctional :[?

Question

i know it's long, but please read i need help.

my dad screwed up real bad, and mom is now going to leave him i think...

and this morning when i woke up everyone was gone so i called my mom and she is staying somewhere for the weekend, and dad is on our boat and I'm not sure if he'll come home or not.

and whats worst of all is i just got engaged and I'm 17...so me and my fiance are stuck in the middle as well as my older brother, but he gets to get away and be at college.

what do you do when you are depressed all the time and just want your dad to die, even though you love him..but he's caused all this.

Answer 1

Just wait ... eventually something is going to happen good or bad

it's way better you don't get involved unless they ask for your help ...

but try talking to your mom she really needs someone to talk to and get advice from but don't talk to your father if you really want him to die cause you will cause pain and lots of arguments ... try to understand the problem thought from both sides and see you is really the one that want wrong...you still have to be strong to do this or just say your sorry and can't help neither of them and remember to be patiant

hope things work out

good luck  

Answer 2

Breath. Calm down, and treat yourself to a mini pedi. Take a warm bath, relax, and then go on a date with your fiance and talk about something other that your family. Good Luck!

Answer 3

Never wish death upon someone especially your dad.

Although your parents are going through a tough time, and that is very hard to face and deal with. You are almost on your own now. You, your fiance, and your older brother will get through all of this together. One more year and you will be going to college too! I don't think your parents would leave you alone.  If one leaves then you always have the other.

But just know that he is still your dad even if he is being a A-Hole.

But never wish death upon a person.

Answer 4

I think you have to hold onto what's

happy in your life, and plan for your

future.

You father made a mistake, forgive

him.  I'm sure he's hurt over it.  He and

your mother has to work it out.

Do something fun, different.

Cheer up.  Life gets better.
