You are old enough to make the decision on where you want to live and whom you want a every other weekend visit. talk to your parents and explain to them that this is too much for you. You have enough pressure just surviving your teenage years. Good luck

Lol I am going through the same thing you are. Until my brithday on October 11, I was 16 and lived with my mom half the time and my dad half the time. Now I'm 17 and live with my mom half the time and my dad half the time. My dad's house is strict and my mom's house is more flexible. You can always do what I am doing, live the way you are now and get a job, save money, get your own apartment. I hope to be on my own right after I am done with high school.

You are old enough to have a say in where you want to live but, keep in mind, the court isn't interested in hearing how "confusing" it is for you, at 16 you are old enough to deal with things that are "confusing" and the court will take that into consideration. Also they're not going to allow you to decide to live with your mom alone just because your dad has more stringent rules. That's life, even as adults we have to live by rules. You can petition the court (have your mother do this on your behalf) and have your say, the court will decide and what the court decides is the way it will be.

Talk to your mom and ask her about staying with her all the time,and if dad doest go for that them mom and you need to go to court and you tell the judge what it is doing to you to keep on the move like that,and you are old enough to tell the judge where you want to live,and most likely he will let you stay where you want at your age.

It time to talk to both mum and dad , if they live to far apart to get together with you or won't. you need to ask mum to organize a phone call where you can explain to dad how you are feeling, mum will be in the room to take over call if you get stuck. but write down what you want to say, so you don't forget, or get off the track , say what you need to, but say it kindly, while telling dad how much you love him and that you still want to see him, but you need to have 1 home and get on with your growing up. you may have to talk this out with them a few times before you all sort out something you are all happy with. good luck

Give it a chance. Learn to appreciate each parent as individuals. Their styles might differ but they both love you and want to have you with them. It won't be long before you're on your own anyways and if you can remain equally close to both of your parents then it is a win-win situation for everyone. It will even benefit your own children when you have some...that they will bond well with both grandparents on your side.

well being I also have a 16yr old daughter and a 12yr old daughter . It is very important to have a open discussion with whichever parent is easier to talk with and express how you feel and maybe they can come up with a better solution for you.Having a sperate family is never easy for anyone.
