Q: Ok my dads been married 4 times...he is still on his fourth marrage. he got married about 7 months ago, when he got married we moved to another house and i had to change schools (i hate my new school so much too) well recently my dad came really close to getting a divorce, and we already found a house near my old school. well the day that my dad got the form for the lease, he started to have regrets about moving, like because the house that were in is my dads dream house, or this would be my dads 4th failed marrage, and the fact that his credit would go back to shit if he does divorce. the only reason i really want to move is so i can be at a better school and have all my old friends back, but at the same time i wanna stay because of my dad...any advice?

I had a very similar situation as a teenager. My dad kept moving in with different women and hauling me around from relationship to relationship. I got really sick of always having to change schools, not to mention get used to living with people who weren't really my family. But I just made the best of it: focused on my studies, took advantage of whatever clubs and organizations the school offered, and formed new friendships through common interests. I learned that when you are a kid, you have little control over what happens to you, but you do have control on how you let it affect you. Eventually, you will graduate from high school, attend college or get a job, and move out on your own, at which point you will be able to have a relationship with your father that isn't dependent on his love life, but is a pure bond between the two of you, free of resentment or anger. Who knows? You might be able to start giving him advice about life one day.

I have much advice to give you as I have probably tried everything at least once. I've studied human behavior for years by immersing myself in various environments and participating in different rituals. Sometimes this involves morally questionable activities, but I feel the need to understand the way the deviant mind works as well as that of more cooperative members of society. After analyzing my experiences, I've come to the conclusion that our reactions and interactions are all basically the same at the core. No matter the situation, I should be able to dig up some first-hand wisdom for you.
