FInd friends, stay away as much as possible. Worked for me until I was 18 and legally able to get out of Dodge.

there's so many different things that could be wrong. maybe you can talk to him about the amount of time he spends playing WoW and that you'd rather spend some quality time with him instead, tell him you'd rather that you all went out as a family. Don't tell him that his kids don't like him, that will just sound petty and it's not up to you to tell him if thats the case. it's hard being 12, ask any adult because we all had to be 12 at some point. your mum should go to the doctors and make sure there's no real damage to her back. And if everyone in your house is screaming, try not to scream too, lead by example, as hard as it can be, if you stop and ask other people to talk it out instead of yelling maybe you'll get somewhere. It'll take time, Rome wasn't built in a day, but anything is worth a shot if you are this unhappy.

Keep saying to yourself, "This too shall pass" then say, "That which does not kill me, makes me stronger. OK? I don't believe that stuff either. I do believe in finding someone who's been there before to help you though this, someone sensible not just a friend. Its really tough when you are a step and your mom is in pain and all that yelling and ignoring, but you really can try to do the grown up thing and not yell, see if you can help your mom with laundry or cooking, things she may not think you are old enough to do. You can just feel sorry for your step dad, one day he will catch on and it won't be pretty. Looking at things from the standpoint of what you can do to help, even if you aren't sure you can, is a good thing to do to convince your parents you are maturing.

I'm so sorry Ashley! (my daughters name is Ashlee too) I wish I could say something to make you feel better. I just want you to know that even though things seem miserable right now, I PROMISE it won't always be that way. Try to talk to your mom right now because I'm sure she loves you and wants to help you. Maybe you could ask her if you could go spend the night with some of your family or one of your friends. It might be good for you to have a little break from what sounds like a stressful time. Hopefully things will get better when your mom is not in so much pain. I wish I could say more to make you feel better. *hugs to you*

Explain to your mom how unhappy you are and ask if there are relatives or close family friends you could possibly stay with for awhile. If that doesn't work, immerse yourself in reading. It takes you away to far off places in your mind and allows you to learn about life and many other things in the process. It also helps you to cope with real life. There is so much information in books. Try to tell yourself every morning when you wake up "It's a brand new day and I'm going to be as happy as possible. I'm going to look at everything in a positive way."

The best thing you can do is find an after school actiity or a friend how's house you can go to after school. Stay out of the fighting. I know it's hard. Talk to a counselor at school. Or go to a church and join a youth group. Realize it's not you.Try to think what you want to do with your life. Go to college, or learn something. Hang in there. God is watching you and will protect you.

wow ur only 12?
talk to ur dad and let him noe ur serious about it, tell him wats going on and how u feel, try to help ur mom out and KEEP UR SPIRTS HIGH! dont let it get u down, if ur dad does nothing then u should spend sometime somewhere were ur feel happy, b.c the more u spend time in a negitive enviorment the more u will feel depressed and unhappy, try to find some friends that understand u and confort u
hope u find peace and try to b as postive as much as u can =]

OK, so the only problem is you have a stepdad who willingly spends money on his stepkids and all he wants is love in return.
He does not beat you. He does not berate you. You're doing OK in school. I don't see a problem other than you are about to have your hormones go crazy when you hit teenage years.
Guess what, maybe if you told him about all this the screaming might stop.

That sounds pretty bad. WOW takes over peoples lives and they do nothing all day. I don't know what to tell you I would need more details. Maybe you can get out of the house with friends?

There really isnt much you can do. Your mom needs to say something to him if its really bothering her. Express yourself to your mom so she knows how you feel. As far as his kids go, they make their own choices. Their father probably know why they do what they do, so its not an issue for him. Speak with your mom and hopefully things can tone down a bit in your house.
