You have to go where it is better for you. The thing is, you have known the family a long time feel beholden to them I guess.
There is no way you should stay in a dead end job, move on and up with more money and better atmosphere. They will get someone else to fill your shoes.
Its always best to be truthful especially with your employer. You've known this person for 5 years if they are truly your friend they will understand your reasons for leaving. Give them two weeks notice chances are they will find someone, $7.50/hr is quite high, just make sure when they find your replacement you don't get jealous
Congratulations, should you choose to go for the $13.50/hr.
Go to your boss and let them know you've been offered an opportunity making quite a bit more money and explain that this new job offers new possibilities you feel its time to explore. Formally give a 2 week notice so they have time to replace you, and thank them for everything they've done for you in the past.

Expand your employment opportunities by going to college.
Just my two cents but just because a job is higher paying does not actually make it the better job. Just look at all your options and decide what is best for you personally. Good luck.

Any job that only pays 7.50 an hour is not really a great job. It is worth the risk in taking a chance with a higher paying job.
No one knows if they will be happier with a different job until they start and then give it time.
Snakebite, A 7.50 job, somebody might enjoy better then their 20 dollar job. It depends on the person. If somebody is happy with what they are doing then 7.50 is good for them. Money does not buy happyness.
In my experience it's always best to tell the truth and to share your feelings (diplomatically) with those people around you that it might effect. I would talk sincerely to your employers, thank them for the great years of employment you've enjoyed and explain to them about how you feel about things... then see what happens. Don't plan too far ahead, it's bad for the soul.
I will add this, give them a two week notice, tell them how much you hate leaving but that you have to advance your opportunities. This gives them plentyof time to hire someone else and they may offer you more money to stay.
