HI there. Are you new to 7 cups. As a teen, you perhaps should be on the teen side of the site, rather than the adult side. You'd get better support there.

I'm sorry to read about your situation. It's my belief that no child should be put in the position of having to chose between parents. Your uncertainty is totally understandable and reasonable in the circumstances. You are confronting adult questions without the adult experience to base them on. Do you maybe have someone at school, a counsellor or teacher, you could discuss this with? They are probably best placed to help you.
