In 2009 my mum passed away and ever since then my dad
has been constantly annoying me. He recently got a girlfriend and he will treat
her like a princess, if she wanted something... she would get it. If my sister
or I wanted something we would have to earn it. WHY?! If dad’s girlfriend wants
to live in this house them she should earn what she wants, not us?!
I don’t know when it’s the right time to start being
who I really am towards my dad. I have only just recently been allowed to go to
this teenagers club ‘Oceana. He still thinks that I'm too young to go. I really
want my tongue pierced but I bet that's not going to happen any time soon. I also
don’t know how to tell my dad that I don’t really like his girlfriend either...
well I like her but she just gets on my nerves allot: constantly singing, I don’t
really see my dad as often and I'm always getting the blame for something she
has done... it’s never her, it’s always me.
Also my dad turns the most smallest of problems into a
massive fight between us both and in the end he blames it on me! As I said, I can’t
do anything about it.
One day I came home smelling of smoke because I had recently
been over my friends house for a sleepover and a member of her family smokes,
me and my dad got into a argument and we didn’t speak for a month.
(Next bit directed at mainly the females) I am at that
age where dramatic changes are happening to my body and I have no one to talk
to about this, my close friends mums have offered to talk/help me through this ‘tough’
time. I feel alone, I am embarrassed to talk to dad or his girlfriend about this
stage in life.
Most of the time at school, most of my friends have no
idea what life is like for me at home, and no one wants to know the bad side of
each other’s lives right? But if we all came together and shared are troubles
then we all might feel equal or glad to get issues like this off our chest and
our friends could help us.
I just keep saying to myself...‘keep calm and carry on’
