So, ever since my parents divorced me and my dad have argued a lot. But that was really because I had a lot of anger about what happened and we didn't really know each other so well. Now it's because I can barely stand him.
I know it's awful for me to think that, but recently my mum had been diagnosed with breast cancer and is ill from chemo and one of my best friends has died, so needless to say I'm not in the best of moods. I figured since my dad has lost many friends already he would be the one to help me and advise me. Instead, my mum has been my confidant and the one that has got me counselling to help me while my dad has become even HARSHER on me. He takes my laptop and phone away in the evenings and sometimes refuses to give my phone back so I can text my mum to ask how she's feeling, he shouts at me for being 'miserable', he's even made a hole in a door where he punched it because he thought I ignored him when I simply couldn't hear him ect ect.
He just seems to not care about any one it at all, he has no sympathy for my mum or my best friend. It disgusts me really.
It's gotten to the point where I almost can't be civil with him at all. I would leave, but I couldn't put that burden on my mum, and I have nowhere else to go. I had tried to leave before when my mum was well, but he got so angry I wouldn't want to risk it again :/
