How do I cope with dad leaving after 14 yrs and has now disappeared?
Hi I'm 14 yrs old. I just recently met my mom after her being gone for almost 11 yrs with out contacting. And secret about him molesting me for as long as I can remember was revealed when coming down with my dad to finally meet her. And he was sent to a hotel and was supposed to wait until the court date but disappeared not being heard from since. It was almost 5 months ago. I would like to know how to cope with him being gone after the secret was revealed. And yes he was around but I practically had to fend for myself for a few years and I would also like to know what I need to get emancipated when I hit the age of 16 wich is less then a yr and a half.
I have no idea who I am anymore so what do I do?
Hi! I need help to figure out how to find myself. So here's the story. I just lost my dad 5 months ago and I don't know where he is. And I just recently found my mom after not seeing her or talking to her in almost 11 yrs. And my dad and I came down here so I could finally meet her but when my dad left and I was placed under my mom's care my ENTIRE personality changed. When I was in Arizona I was running the streets getting drunk and high all the time not giving a crap about anything. And because what I was enduring from my dad I built up barriors around me so if people started talking crap I would knock there teeth out or cuss them out. And I never needed anybody and didn't lean on anybody or let anyone in but this one girl. And so she was put behind my barriors and I was willing to give up my life for her. Then I let this guy in (which was a stupid idea) and we were together for almost 4 months until I came down here to Indiana. I also never listened to my dad or anyone for that matter. But now if people talk crap about me I don't let it get to me. I'm going through some emotional problems because of my dad and the girl I let in. I crave weed more than ever now and I smoke more than used to. And because of what I've gone through most of my life I'm to the point of wanting to get emancipated as soon as I hit the age of 16 Just so I can be sure that my family can't hurt me any longer. So how do I find myself now? I'm lost in an unfimiliar world.
