My mum wants to kick me out and send me to live with my dad. It would means I would lose contact with this side of the family, probably. And I love my grand-parents and great-grandparents on this side of the family. My grand-parents on my dad's side are old and have a carer and don't always remember me. The only good thing that could come out of this is the fact that it might help with my aunt's fight to have custody of me a few weeks every year.

Does she truly want to, as you say, kick you out?
Would you have to, say, change schools? Your grandparents and great-grandparents will always love you and remember you, even if you do move away. And maybe you can visit them?

Yup. She's already contacted the CAFCAS officer in charge of our case to get the judge to try and let my dad have permanent custody of me.
No, my dad actually lives closer to the school than my mum.
Very rarely, because they hate my dad, and so I wouldn't be able to go and see them during holidays and such, since my dad would probably want me to go with him when he goes on holiday. They live in a different country.

That sounds...messy.

This must feel horrible. At least you can still go to the same school (very optimistic of me:rolleyes:).
Maybe during weekends or something? And maybe your dad could just bring you there...?

XD Yeah.
Plane tickets cost too much, and the only other way to get to the south of France is by car... And it takes a whole weekend to get down there. So no for weekends. And my dad is some kind of banker, and rarely gets time off work, so he couldn't drop me off there for holidays. And when he does get holidays, he likes to spend it with us.
I love how my mum thinks my sisters are perfect, even though they both physically attack me. -_- And yet she wants to send ME off to live with someone who is practically a stranger to me (when I was growing up, my dad was always either sleeping or at work, so I didn't really know him). *shakes head* Maybe I am better off going with my dad.

Sometimes it's good to have a fresh start. Not an entire fresh start, though.
Wait, who lives in France? Your maternal or paternal grandparents? Or someone else? I meant visiting your mother at weekends, though that side of your family doesn't sound very nice.

All of my family except my parents live in France or Spain. But maternal grandparents live further away, and paternal ones live north but are one step away from having to go into a home to be fully cared for. I suppose I could visit my mum at weekends, but it's a lot of hassle for someone who only seems to want to bring me down.

So what is it, aside from your maternal grandparents, that you'd miss from that side of your family?

Not much. It's just that I've spent my whole life with my mum... It's kind of scary, leaving her.
