Dear Michelle:

      My Dad hates my Mom. He tells me that she is a liar and that I should not trust her. Of course, they are divorced but they have “joint custody(共同监护)”. What a joke! I am 15, my brother is nine, and we have a life of hell, frankly.

   We live one week on and one week off. This was the brilliant idea of both of my parents, which was fair to them but ruining my life. I can’t get away from his voice and his putting my mom down. Sometimes I think about running away.

                                                                     A Hopeless Ant

Dear Hopeless Ant:

   First, thank you for trusting me with your problem. If all you said is correct, then there are several

things that you can and should do to help yourself, your brother, and your parents.

   ● You need a family counselor(顾问). Such a person could listen to each family member alone and

then meet together to talk about the situation.

   If refused, you need to talk to a counselor in your school. You need to be heard, and you need an

adult who will listen. A school counselor can organize a meeting with your parents.

   ● Perhaps you need to write to her. Writing things down allows people to go over it more than one

time.

   I cannot imagine that she will stand passively by and do nothing at all to help once she reads how

you feel. Your father needs a letter as well. He may not realize the destructive effect that it has on his

children.

● Lastly, have a plan in mind when all else fails that is not self-destructive. Life passes very quickly, and you will grow up and have your own life.

   Above all, you need to keep yourself safe. Never doubt that it will get better. Write back and let me know how everything is going.
