about

Hi guys! Basically my friends and family come to me for advice all the time and I just thought you know, nothing really of it. Until I took notice and realized that I usually give pretty good advice, or the best advice I can I decided that I really do like figuring out situations and helping to find the best answer!

I absolutely love my father, I really do, and he's a great dad and all but... I don't want to live with him any more. He's a slob, he's always moody and he uses his depression as an excuse. He also has a lot of debt and I'm sick of having his weights on my shoulders all the time, you know?

My brother has offered me that if I want to, I can rent a room of his house. I'm thinking of taking this up and possibly bringing a friend with me so it'd be less rent for me to pay 'cause we'd be splitting it. He's a reliable guy, too.

Does this seem like a bad idea? I'm 15 and a half, I'm paid $800 a month from my job, I plan on staying in school and my brother lives close to the school.

I'm just afraid my dad will get upset and stop talking to me.

I personally think that moving out would not be such a great idea. My dad was also very depressed and used it as excuses. He would make his illness his weakness and guilt me into doing everything for him. He ended up passing away almost a year ago and I regret all of the pressure and hatred I showed him. I dont think you should be worried about his feelings and him not talking to you anymore. You should be worrying about what could happen in the future and if it is worth it to break a connection that you will want forever.
