Step-mom And Father Threatening To Divorce And Relocate Me(16) To Another State.

Card image cap

Location: Washington State

Let me preface, I have no vendettas for my father.

I have lived with my Step-Mother since infancy. She has raised me and I attribute most of who I am to her and how she has raised me. My father and my stepmother have been having marital issues and have been threatening to divorce and move me to Oregon with my father.

I would prefer to stay in Washington. I am 16 years old, nearly finished with highschool, just got a job, and I am doing technical college through my highschool. I have so much going for me in Washington, and in Oregon, I have no history, I have nothing there for me. I would move in with my Grandma and my father and lose everything that is going for me.

I have slightly researched the laws, I have basically no say in the courts and it is completely up to the judge what would happen to me. My stepmom does not have legal custody of me, but like I said, she raised me to be who I am today and has been with me since I was a few wee months old.

I have no idea what to do. I have a lot on my plate currently emotionally and I really dont want to deal with this right now????.
