That isn't to say that I don't love my mom and step dad. But they are starting new lives now, and you can either be a part of it or get out. I don't like their new life so the only option left is to not really be a part of it anymore.

As a parent my self and a Christian I would say
That your
DAD - is doing the best he knows how with the life he has right now and that he is probably trying to work on his out burst issue since he does show remorse for his negative actions when they happen... hang in there and let him know that you love him dearly - ex: by telling him, giving him hugs & kisses, a card from time to time and helping him around the house or yard.... men bond through doing things with others.
Your
MOM - has found a new life with in her heart and she wants to share this new found peace and love with the ones she loves (this includes you), and while she may be over doing it a bit you must remember that she is doing it out of love and not hate or anger. Please do not push your mother & step father away just yet.... they need you and you need them.
