What now?
My dad's laziness has finally hit us all hard! We are getting together tomorrow night for an intervention. I told my sister about all the crap that is going on at the store. And the fact that I was trying to help my parents talk about all these issues a couple of weeks ago. My sister was dumbfounded. She had no idea about all the problems, because no one ever talks about it. So...she called me crying, saying that I shouldn't have had to deal with this all on my own, and that I am too young to worry about all this. She is so emotional sometimes!! I was fine dealing with it, but I thought that her and my brother should know. Hello, he's opened up upteen loans to help him with the store. Guess What! If he, Heaven forbid, passes away, then we are stuck paying them all off. That is a burden that I cannot bear. I have hardly enough for my family, let alone pay off $10,000+ in loans from him. I promise to never do that to my kids. Also, it looks like my mom is at her breaking point. I fear that if something doesn't change NOW, that they will get a divorce. I love my dad, but I can't blame my mom! He is pathetic....I can't believe I just said that! It's just hard to believe that he is my dad sometimes. All of us kids are so motivated, and hardworking...he just lays around. I know he has major depression issues, but we need to get all this figured out as a family! Wish us luck, and keep is in your thoughts and prayers!
