Yeah, one of the reasons we fought is my disrespect for them. I've flat out told them for years I don't respect them because nothing they tell me ever actually happens. It's hard to respect people who have lied to me or never made good on their promises for as long as I can remember. Being the Disney nut I am now I HAD to bring up when they told me they would take my brother and I to Disney World when I was 8 and they never did..

They then promptly reminded me I wouldn't love it so much if I'd shared it with them first. No wonder I'm so negative!
Anyway, when I came home we had another fight and I told him I wasn't going to change if they didn't.. and that once I get the money together and walk out the door, I'm not coming back. Ever. It's not worth the emotional crap to me and if I gather enough (pardon) balls to walk away-- I'm going to keep going. And not look back.
Dad sorta stared at me for a couple minutes and then said "I can see you doing that, too." and walked away.
'Bout an hour later he came up and told me they were going to make good on their offer to help me. So I got a copy of their gas card and I'm supposedly going to get a $40 check every week for food.
We'll see.
Thanks for the concern!
