okay i know i havent said this before but i've been thinking about it a lot and i guess i just want some opinions or something.
so i've never lived with my parents...most kids who dont or something their parents arent very close by and if so not REALLY close. (just what i've heard about) anyway...i live with my grandmother and believe me i love her and all but i guess it bothers me how my parents dont have me living with then when they are the next house over...also they are still my legal guardians. which does not make sense to me because if my grandmother grew me up and everything why do my parents get to decide what i do i mean they dont even know anything about me my. yeah sure they buy me things and when i was little and sick my mom would come over but i never even spent one holiday at their house and im 13...weird? or no...
(ps: i've probably slept at their house 10 times in my whole life...if that)
~thanks - Rosemarie
Additional info, added Monday June 12 2006, 8:56 pm: ...k so maybe i left some stuff out...#1 they do want me to live with them now...but i think its only because i can take care of myself for the most part. #2...if i live with my grandmother...shouldnt she have the right to say what i can and cant do not my parents because i guess i just feel they shouldnt have that right...#3...im not really interested in becoming closer to them...i just dont think its worth it...sorry if that sounds bad but i guess its just a big long story that no one would care to type or read lol.

Obviously everyone wants the best for you, and it was determined that your grandmother could care for you better then they could. It's totally ok if you don't want to live with them now or get close to them, their lack of effort in your life is apparent. If I were you, I would stay with my grandmother and see if my parents were serious about establishing a relationship with me separate from that. If nothing changes (i.e., they still don't invite you over, do things with you, spend quality time) them maybe it is STILL in your best interests to stay with grandma.

I think if you want to live with them, then you should talk to them, and your grandma. That is what i would do. Hope i helped.

no12trust answered Monday June 12 2006, 8:17 pm: In my opinion it is a little weird but if you really think about it maybe your parents feel they can't give you the greatest life. Yes they might live next door but maybe they don't know what to do, and you living with your grandmother, in their opinion, might be better. If you want to get closer to your parents, I suggest to ask them why you never lived with them.
~I'm sorry if this doesn't help, but I really do hope it helps, Even it it helps just a little bit.
