wow that's a LOT of information - not complaining this is actually really helpful especially since i'm likely gonna need it
my mum would definitely do half-custody. she pretty much looks after us as a single mum already because my dad's always working & when he's not he just doesn't bother, just gets drunk and smokes and watches crappy R rated movies ... he'd probably have us for weekends or something at most but still would likely "accidentally" book something in smh. he isn't abusive but he's very absent & gets angry easy so he's still not the best lmao.
oh god the idea of having to stay in the same school is scary. my dad would probably wouldn't care, thank god (i know my mum would because she never wanted me to go there in the first place - she wanted me to go to HER old school because my one has a really bad rep). i mean if i come out it might be different right? because a lot of people are "super straight" & transphobic here so i'll likely get bullied & misgendered a lot. ughhhh-
i'm so sorry you feel like that :( it must suck but at i mean after the drama of it all is settled at least they're happy, y'know? if it means my mum will stop breaking down & threatening to k*** herself then i'm okay with it (plus the perks for me of possibly getting to move). the idea of my mum dating is ,,, ew kinda weird ngl but i guess you get used to it huh.
thanks so muchhhhhh <£ (& i hope so too, i really do)
