My dad's also abusive - not physically, but emotionally (and not as bad as the traditional abusive dad, but just bad enough to always make everyone else's lives suck more). I've been trying to convince my mom to divorce him since I was like 14 because I feel it negatively impacted my growth as a person and it is also negatively impacting my severely mentally disabled brothers (they've talked about it but never follow through). At the same time I don't want to move out because that would leave them alone with him and holy shit do I need a lot of therapy once I'm able to afford it if I think like this about my own father
(Also COVID and my own disability putting me at risk means I can't get a job, so I don't exactly have a way to keep making income to pay for another place to live, even if I had a GoFundMe that worked (and I wouldn't set one up when there are millions of people more deserving). At this point it's just take as many online classes as possible while the price is slightly cheaper so my student debts aren't as big)
