I am having troubles with my mom right now and i was wondering if anyone had any advice?? My parents divorced almost a year ago, My brother and I have had to go back and forth every other week from both houses. My dad lives in Spring Valley (in town) and my mom lives in Ostrander (out in the country). My dad has the house that we use to live in and my mom had to go get a different one. My mom has been through three different houses and is expecting to move again. Both parents have other partners already. I am use to my dad's more then my mom's and also my dad is a lot more nice then my mom. So my dad and me deicded to make a appointment with my counsler to have my dad, my mom and me all talk together. I am so nervous about it because I do not want to be at my mom anymore. However, some days i want nothing to do with my mom and some days i would just like to see her and not live there. I have deicded to make a list of all the reasons that i would not like to live out here so she can know, because that is what this whole session is about. If anyone else has any ideas that could help me to make this a little bit easier on everyone then being full out mean please feel free to write whatever you would like.

Just be honest with her and maybe the best thing for you would be to live with your dad and spend time with your mother. Being a mom, I know how difficult it is to be without your child since I didn't live with my girl for 15 months, but you have got to do what makes good with the child as well as living conditions. Hope everything works out with the counseling and hope no one gets hurt.

I hope so too I am afraid that my mom might over react about what is going on. She already said that my dad is putting me up to this and he is making me. Which is not true i came to my dad to ask him what i should do that this is what he suggested. My mom can be very unpredictable so i am afraid of what she might say/do when we all go in there.

I can't offer any advice since I've never been through anything like that. But I do want to say good luck and thoughts are with you.

gabelover -- my kids did not live with me for a few years because my life was "going to hell in a handbasket" and I let them live with their father. They were very anxious to come back to me, but until I got myself straigtened out I could not put them through that. I cannot believe your mother did not show up. I hope everything is going well now. You say you are 16, you are old enough to decide who to live with.

I wish i was able to choose but i can't because the legal age is 18 but by then i'm an adult and there is not point. So things are now worse then ever and my mom even told me that she wants nothing more to do with me and that she never wanted a child like hers to end up like this...ever. Yeah i am hoping that something will get worked out as soon as possible. Thank you for all of you help.
