So today I effectively ruined my family, but I'm not sure how I feel about it. My mom spontaneously decided to actually get my dad a dog, even though I've been arguing against it for years (even she doesn't like dogs). I've been trying to tell my dad that not only is this a poor decision in general, but it's also not the best financial decision for us right now. I tried to compromise with him, telling him I'd be willing to help out a lot more, take the fault for my own mistakes, be more responsible, etc. up until he said that getting rid of the dog would change things between us, to which I responded that keeping it would change things between us. After that things got very heated very quickly. Usually he'll get super pissed like this and then be over it within a week, but I'm not sure at this point. All I want is another family, I even told him to get rid of me instead of the dog because I cause so much grief in my family. I keep telling myself "two more years, two more years" but at this point I don't know if I can make it that long. So yeah, my family is really messed up right now and I'm not sure how or if I'll fix it.
