My dad is basically a big slob. He sleeps at work. When he comes home he sits on the couch and drinks beer. Sometimes he goes out to a local bar and drinks there. He seems to love my mom but he takes her for granted for example he forgot her birthday and gave her his own bowling ball as a gift(it had his name on it)
He sometimes chokes me when I aggrevate him, he isn't very involved in my sister Lisa's life at all, and sometimes he even forget's my baby sisters name altogther. Our neighbor is a religious guy who seems to be a much better father and it makes me want more. Should we leave him?

Well Bart, I'd say that from what I've seen on television that although he isn't the best father in the world, he does care about his family. Homer always comes through in the end.

well let's see, you have a pretty messed up childhood. it sounds like the problem was that your mom kept getting together with the wrong guy. you had a lot of bad memories back then, but you can start building good memories now. now that you're on your own I suggest you get a therapist and talk it over. that is the best thing that can help you i can guarantee. A pedophile, is a person who is sexually attracted to children, or anyone younger than them. be sure that this is you. have you always been this way? It could be because of your childhood, or it could be psychological. My guess would be that this whole thing is psychological- since your dad opened your eyes to seeing girls that age in a sexual age, your mind is still there and you still see girls like that at that age. I do not know much about the disease, so I'm unsure if this can cause it. Look into it, talk to someone who knows (like a doctor or a disease expert or something) but my best advice would be to get a therapist.

First of all, sit down with your mother and tell her how you feel. It might make her "wake up" to the fact that your father's actions are affecting the entire family. Also, suggest that she (and you and your siblings) go to Al-Anon as he might be an alcoholic who needs help. If she won't go ask another family member for help.
Is he abusive to your mother also? Regardless, call the police when he gets abusive. It's not the best situation but it will only get worse if nothing is done. You don't have to live in that type of situation but you've got to stand up and make him see that you're not going to accept that type of lifestyle.
I wish you the best.

Your mom selected him to breed with.. what does she say. She probably likes being treated this way. Some people like being a martyr.
Father's are not allowed to choke their kids. Next time it happens go to your grandparents show them the marks and ask to move in with them.

Tell mom that you don't feel safe at home. If she can't hear you, tell a teacher, minister, or friend. You deserve to be safe at home. Maybe mom will be able to leave, I hope so. She, your sister and you deserve to be safe and loved. Trust your instincts!

If I were her I would leave but it is your mom's choice and I am sure she knows what she's doing( love can be hard to find)
If you really think that then maybe you should talk to your mom about this

It's not your decision to "leave" your father... unless you're an adult and want to strike out on your own.
If your mother gets tired of her life with him, she will do something about it, i suppose.
Meanwhile, maybe you could focus on YOUrself and the type of person YOU wish to be? apparently, your father isn't a very good role model... and it's too bad we can't choose our parents, huh?
If you want MORE, then set goals and strive for them! hugs
