Dear Diary,
I finally decided who I wanted to celebrate Thanksgiving with: this year, I’m going to hang out with my dad. I mean, that’s the best choice, right? Like, my dad never gets to see me on Thanksgiving…and he really sounded like he missed me. And when I told him on the phone? He was SO excited.
The only thing is that I haven’t told my mom yet. And she’s not going to be happy at all. But at least she has my aunt and grandma to celebrate with. Right?
Ugh. Maybe I’ve made the wrong decision after all.
Maybe I should call my dad and cancel.
Maybe I should just tell both of them that I’ve got an invitation to a friend’s house for Thanksgiving dinner and I won’t be available.
I wish this was easier.

Salley, I think you need to tell your mom your decision right away – the sooner the better. I think you need to let both your mom and dad know how stressful this is for you. You love both your parents and they need to know that and help you feel good about spending time with both of them – not feeling guilty about it. You have nothing to feel guilty about! I think if your parents knew how you’re struggling they would do work together and put their own feelings aside. That’s their job as parents.
Your mom might be dissapointed but it was your choice!!!
well, there’s always christmas! lol sorry Salley :(
decisions decisions, if your being bothered by your choice you probably didn’t pick the right one. but you also have christmas! ok, hope this helps :)
That’s a tough decision, Salley, but I’m sure your mom will be ok with it. She loves you and wants you to be happy.
Aw, maybe split the holiday. If it is just you and your dad you can see him on the day after and you two can have your own thanksgiving meal and hang out together. Than you can stll hang out with your mom for one thanksgiving as well.
come on just ask your mom i bet she will understand
Why Dont You Invite Them BOTH??? Just Becaude They Have Divorced Doesnt Mean They Cant Even Look At Each Other Right? **~**Sonici**~**
Why dont you ask your dad if he can come to your house on thanksgiving so you can see them both
Salleys not making the rite choice. Im sorry for her tho. Lay-Z Rezpect Me
