Okay, so this weekend I was suppose to stay home at my Moms instead of going to my Dads... (Not happy about that) On Saturday (Yesterday) I was suppose to go fishing with her and my Step Dad, the problem is, I just came back from a vacation when all I did was fish, so yah, IM SICK OF IT! I told them, they overreacted... They were very upset and I had a fight with my mom, She didnt understand, that I was coming but Im going to sit in watch instead of fish, I mean, Ill be with them, Ill just be sitting back and relaxing watching them fish, Well now, My stepdads very disappointed, because they chose not to go because of me, and My mom keeping yelling at me, SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO THINGS YOU DONT WANT TO DO! Well, for the past 5 months, that all I freakin did! I moved, went to a different, crappier school, and now Im having a baby brother that IM 99% sure that Ill end up taking care of. So, I need your judgement, AM I RIGHT? Or do I deserve to be mad at, explain!

well ive been where you are in a way my dad left my mom and me and my sister when i was just 3 and my sister was 1 and a half he met another woman and i only saw him during the summer foe about 10 or 12 years and he moves several states away so i had to be in a car for 6 to 8 hours to go see him!!! now things are better he left that woman got married again for 5 years then left that woman and is with a nice lady i like but what is nice about all this is i always loved him i had tough times but it always worked out you will have crappy times and sad times but all in all one day you will think ya i had a tough time but i toughed it out and here i am nice and in a good situation that i want to be in!!! i follow my own rules and now i can do what i want! of course this wont happen for awhile but when it does man will it feel good so yes maybe you should have gone fishing again maybe you should have done what you did but in my opinion it was a learning experience. we all need a few of those along the way to maturity!

@stellie--Here's my real world advice, I understand you're tired, because I get tired all the time because I simply do to much. Parents sometimes ask for to much, I don't like seeing my parents under any type of sadness. We don't do to many out door activities; like fishing. We would have to drive a long ways, I live in the city. I would just do what's best and take my time to spend my time with them, but it's your choice. You shouldn't have to be forced to go fishing. Now with the baby brother situation, if you feel as though you already have to much on you, you don't have to necessarily watch that baby. I would recommend it, I'm only saying this because it's not your child you gave birth to in the first place. You may need to sit down and explain how you actually feel for your parents to understand. All the fussing is unwanted, it's normal for families to argue but constantly going back and forth with such anger may be frustrating. Don't let your family fall apart, keep it as happy as possible!

It sounds like they were not listening..You were gonna go just not fish..

I'm sure your baby brother will be fun to watch grow up & teach things to? is this your only younger sibling? It was always the same with my parents, with them not listening and making me frustrated and getting punished for their lack of hearing. It didn't change much, becoming an adult.My best guess is that you should talk with her, or maybe write a note? And explain the situation to your stepdad. Hopefully he won't think you're a spoiled brat, like your mom is acting like.

@stellieTry to expain to your mom what you really meant was not what she thought. I have to do that with my parents all the time >_< My mom always misunderstands me and trys to turn it back on me like I'm acting like a little kid (which I have to admit sometimes I do). Try ant tell her you were going on the trip, you just would not fish. You would be there to talk and enjoy the trip with them.I'm an only child wishing I had a sibling. But it is better in most respects since I don't like screaming children.
