Problem is I DON'T NOT get along with my mom but she's going to stay where i live now where all of my friends are. My dad is moving and I get along with my dad great but then I'd have to start all over again. I'm going to be starting my 10th grade year, and kinda don't want to move in high school but there WILL BE too many probs with my mom. Don't answer if you're gonna say "go will whoever you like most" that would be nice in an imaginary world but there are many more factors than that.

i'd say dad. if you and ur mom dont get along, ur dad won't be there for you things could get much rougher, and make your 10th grade year even more rough, ask your dad if maybe he could stay around the same neighborhood or let u go to the same school if you're close. if you can't then still, go with your dad and start over, it's worth it to avoid getting into lots of fights with mom. i'm really sorry that you have to go through this hope this helps good luck! =]

I think change is good and if you get along with your dad that's where you should be because two women living in the same household usually doesn't work. I think if you move with your dad you will be worry free, except for the fact that you're leaving your old friends, but realize this you got those friends and I'm sure you can gain some more. And if you're not moving that far away you and your old friends can still stay in contact and visit every now and then

I wish there was a clear and defined easy answer to give you. And I'm sure you're looking for it, but I think we both know you're going to have to do some serious thinking on the matter. If you want a little bit of advice on which way to go. Weigh the pros and cons of both situations. Is starting all over in your 2nd year of high school easier than dealing with your mom, or vice versa. And if you do stay with your mom, 3 more years and hopefully you'll be in college and can have dad as your home base. I wish I could look into your future and tell you which path to head in...hell I wish I coould do that for myself. Hope something I said was helpful. I wish you much luck and happiness. :)

Sit down with a pencil and paper. Write the pros and cons of each scenario. That way you can look at the situation objectively, and make a good decision. It would be easy for me to tell you what I would think that you should do, however I do not have to live with that decision. In life you will find this way of working out you problems invaluable. By seeing the differences in writing, you will develop a clearer prospective.
Good Luck. I hope that you will be happy, but if you are not happy with your decision, you can always change your mind later. I am so sorry that you have to deal with your parents divorcing. Don't let it get you down. Use it as an example to take your time, and be more careful about your own decision to settle down into marriage one day.

this is tough and a problem that many kids face. I would stay with my dad if I got along with him better because I don't mind starting over. Its all up to you, you know the pros and cons with both parents, at least they are giving you an option unlike many other situations. This is life. Which ever direction you go you will have good and bad times till everything settles down. good luck

Kids should not have to make these types of emotional changes.There are positives and negatives on both sides.You are in year 10 and dont have long to finish?What about visting your dad in the holidays?Are there so many problems that you cant iron them out with your mum? Most teenagers seem to hate one parent or the other?There is no concrete answer to this.You need to talk to both your parents individually and ask them the advantages of living with either parent and then weigh up your answer fom the information you have gained.Best of luck.

I would stay with my mom to finish high school and stay close to friends. There will be allot of new things for you in these next couple of years that you will need your mom for and will feel more comfortable talking to your mom about like boys, crushes , dating etc... You can always visit your dad during thanksgiving , x-mas, spring break and the summer.
You can also plan weekends together occasionally

I went through something very similar. I stayed with dad, but he wasn't nearly as secure as my mom, and I just had to move with her a couple of years later. I can't tell you who you should go with, but you should go with whoever is most secure and will be over to take proper care of you.

well really it all depends on what you are willing to give up for another.....you will definetly meet new friends at wherever you are going to live at with your dad. maybe you can stay with your mom until high school is over, then move in with ure dad, or be on your own

Go with your Dad, starting over has it's benefits too...nobody knows you and if you have any beef with anyone it will be gone when you move. I want to move out of state and start over too even though my family, boyfriends family and all our friends are here. It is nice to start over. Plus you will be happier with your Dad.
