My parents have been separated since I was five. I switch houses every other week. My dad always says bad things about my mom. At my moms, my brother is controlling. Sometimes I am happy about that because he helps me make some right decisions. Other times, he hits me repeatedly and swears at me. My mom yells at us to stop fighting when all that is happening is I am trying to stop the fight and he is starting it up again. He says I am snappy at him and when I try to tell my mom about it she yells at me and lets my brother say his side of the story. When this happens I go from cheery to shaking to relaxed an hour later. I don't know how to deal with my life anymore!
