I overheard my mom talking to my sister about the possibility of the two of them leaving my dad and I. I don't think she's actually going to do it. I think she was just really frusterated and stressed with some of the things that have been going on lately, but it still hurt ( Read more... )

I don't think you should blame yourself for any of these things. If people can't seem to take responsibility for helping you through tough times, that is not your fault in the slightest. I don't know if what your mother said is true. If it does wind up being such, it is far from your fault.

Keep in mind. I can promise you that you're not going to lose everyone in your life. Particularly the special group of friends that you've made in the past several years. I can tell you that there have been times where we've treated each other more like family than our real families have. You're stuck with us for life, kid. =D

Don't go blaming yourself. I'm sure everything will turn out for the best.

I'm only going to say this once, so pay attention:

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH YOU.This is a screwed up world full of unthinking cruelty. You are not the only person to be treated badly, unfortunately, and it's not because of anything that's "wrong" with you. We always seem to want to blame ourselves for other people's abuse of us, in an effort to find some reason, some justification for the pain that we go through. The truth is that there IS no good reason for others to hurt us, but sometimes, they do anyway. And a lot of the time, they don't even mean to. That's a lot harder to swallow than the alternate view--that if you were somehow "good enough," things would change--but it's the way things are ( ... )

Ditto what Chris and Liza said. From what you've described, not only is this situation not your fault-- it has nothing to do with you. I don't know anything about issues between your parents, and I know that they're bound to be a burden on you, but their problems are their own and not your fault.
