Okay so my parents divorce is finially ending second week of July. I've never been so happy (its been going on for two years in August). I live with my dad right now but I really want to live with my mom when the divorce thing is set. I get along way better with her and she understands me more than my dad ever has. the only thing my dad is good for is him telling me what to do and getting stuff (like food, cds, etc).
The only problem with this is that my dad doesn't think my mom is a good mother. But thats kind of bull too because she has been there through everything then last year i cut myself and they all thought it was because of her, but it had nothing to do with that.
Anyways.. I think that I will be happier living there, but how do I convince my dad that I will be? I hate living where I am now. I feel like time is just moving and i'm not doing anything with my life. I want purpose, pretty much.
can someone please help me? i don't know how to tell my dad i don't like living with him.
i'm 16/f if that helps. and i will be a junior next year. (link)

it definetly sounds like your unhappy.
first have you told your mom how you feel?
i would definetly tell her before your dad she can help you 1.) with getiing throught the divorce cus she is doing the same thing. 2.) she was married to him so she might no a good way to break it to him.
then explain to your dad how your unhappy and why dont just complain give him reasons and tell him the real reason you cut yourself he is gonna want to make sure that it isnt because of her if you are going to be livibng with her
he still cares about you so he wantss you to be safe.
if you cant talk your dad into it you CAN go to the courts considering your 16 he have the right to choose where to live.
but that is a last resort.
good luck.
tell me how it works out!
