Should I run away from home? Part 3 Answer on this one please!?

What do you think I should do? Please help :c I'm not being a drama queen, please don't say anything like that. I know I'm being ungrateful for all the nice stuff I have but that's exactly what it is; stuff. I want to feel loved too, not feel unimportant and unwanted. I want to just be a normal family with no fights. I want to be me and wear my casual clothes and have my hair up. I want to be happy.

    You are 13

    Being lost and confused is normal

    Sadly being in the middle of divorced Parents, is normal for too many too

    It is not the divorced part that is the problem,

    It is kids being used to score points

    Nothing wrong with being a Drama Queen, if you can make it work for you.

    It may even work far better than running away

    If you are up for a bit of Over-acting

    Calm sensible discussion might be a challenge

    When the other person is not being calm

    Don't start shouting, even if they do

    First of all, people often want what they don't have. Secondly if you would provide your age it would give me a little more information about where you mind is, and what's really going on. However with the information that you have provided it is unlikely that running away from home will provide you with what you are looking for. Happiness doesn't come from the outside, it comes from within. It is often said if you don't like your situation change it (no not by running away). Instead figure out what you can do within your situation that would provide you with some degree of happiness. If you are old enough, and can maintain your grades, maybe getting a job would be an option for you.

    It is not often that ones parents provide them with stuff, and don't love them, as a matter of fact this is their way of demonstrating their love for you because this is the way they grew up. Usually when a parent is not giving you a hug, providing you with words of encouragement, and things like this is not because they don't love you, it's because they don't know how.

    So, you have to look at their actions, and ask yourself, would someone who didn't love me do these things for me? You should also work on yourself so that you won't pass this on to your children. Maybe take some classes at the local community center.

    Maybe consider taking a psychology class at the community college,and this will get you out of the house, give you some college credit, and better help you understand the mind set of your parents.

    I kinda have the same mom and if it was me I would go with the dad because your happy and if you do got a poor lifestyle you can have a sense of responsibility, cook on your own , get a part time job.you'll also be able to see a loving family no matter how much time you spend apart.

    But if you need to stay with your mom then you have to stick with it, try to find a time when you can be yourself so when you grow and leave , you will be on the winning end and probably go see your dad if you don't already. Your mom will regret her mistakes.

    And your 13 you won't be able to do anything at that age if you run away, jobs are hard too.

    So if you are with your dad on your time alone , you can exercise in a nearby park or at home.

    But it's all up to you, and what you are willing to do.

    Just tell your mom that's you don't like the way she makes you do things. And you could get a job and live at your dads house to help out with money and pay for healthier foods? Think a little

    I do not think that is the best way out to escape the problems, you should talk to your family hacerca what's wrong and try to solve them.

    I hope you understand me

    Um, well where would you go? If your not 18 then you can't really run away and be homeless.

    No, you have to talk to your mother calmly: do not yell
