my mum and dad split up years ago, and i used to see him every weekend, and i would go to his every 2 weekends, and down to his for a week in the holidays.

But a year ago my half brother (my dad and his girlfriends child) was diagnosed with a brain tumour, he had it removed and he is still ill, hes 3 and he cant walk, he will never walk. And since this has happend i hardy ever see my dad.

I saw him in january and then not for 7months, and i dont know when im going to see him again.

He lives 2 hours away from me, and he says he never has the money to come to ours and see me and my brother.

I miss seeing him on a regular basis.

It also means i hardy ever see my half brother, who i love and miss so much.
I dont see my 2 step sisters, who again i also miss seing:/

I dont know what to do, i feel like having a go at him and being angry is unfair to him, but otherwise im still angry and i cant help it:/

What should i do? Help me?

Let it go, your father is busy with his other child who has a disablity and is really ill. If it was the fact he lived 2 hours away and never visited then I would agree that he is not behaving very well and is being unfair but he must have a lot on his plate with his ill child.

Maybe you could talk to him over the phone or maybe you could go visit?

Just tell him how you feel.

But remember he is busy with someone who is really ill. I mean if you went to visit it would be a lot less bother as moving someone who cant walk and is ill is just really hard thats a big part of it. Talk to him, see if you can work a good soloution out

If they have a computer, webcam, & the internet video chat is always a possibility.

Is the person you live with not able to drive you?

But you cannot ask him to leave his child who by the sounds of it needs like 24/7 care.

well, maybe a friend can take you, or you can catch a bus?
but it happens, some people dont see thier dads that often, it's a part of life.
it seems he has a lot to deal with right now, so he cant help that he cant see you. i doubt he is doing it to spite you
