My childhood hasn't been simple. As a toddler, my parents would constantly and even try to fight infront of me. They finnally divorced and I thought that my life was going to get better. Could I be more wrong. My dad became angry and my older half sister by 7 years became the guardian. I remember one time my younger brother and I would playfighting in the basement and my father came downstair and beat him. He never tried to make any relationships with us unless it was to impress my stepmom. My mom constantly put other first abd would stay with boyfriends who would emotionally abuse us. Now they want me to either move full time with one of them. I'm 13 and I don't know what to do.
Please help,

You are not responsible for what others say, do, or how they react.

Best wishes.
