This blog is to help me say my story, share my pain and hopefully get some help. I am stuck. The law won't help me and it seems like the only way to escape my parents is emancipation. However, I need to know that I have support and that's I'm not alone. This is also to share my story and tell other teens in similar circumstances that they are not alone in their suffering.

Dad's Divorce
In mid-September, me and my dad's family took a trip to Seaside, for a week. My dad had already had it in his mind that he was going to divorce my stepmother, if she didn't take a 180 and begin to take an interest in sex. Only weeks before, my father filed for bankruptcy, destroying both his and my stepmother's credit. During the course of a week, my father degraded my stepmother; for being a mess maker (though he and the twins made plenty themselves), for her being needy and not wanting to go anywhere alone, and not being interested in him being naked in bed with her. He started going on Match.com during the week, looking and talking to singles, before he even served her the paperwork. My father says he values communication with me, so he started telling me about these women he was interested in. I felt like it was deju vu. When he divorced my mother, he went looking for sex. He had a sixteen year old girlfriend, when he was over twenty. I looked back on how quickly he replaced my mother, degrading her to his friends and anyone else who would listen, before he served the paperwork. He repeated this again and for the same reason, neither woman was interested in sex with him after kids. He tried to turn me against my stepmother, like he did for my mother, but this did not work. Though he turned her whole family against her, I still trust and love my stepmother more.
