Why Does She Do This?

I hate how my semiformal is coming up and how nobody can help me out. It’s in a week and I have the dress and the shoes, but nothing else. I should be getting my hair done this Thursday, but every time my mom gets stressed out about something she tells me, “call your deadbeat father. I can’t do it all alone.” When I call my dad he never answers, and when I do finally get him, he’s just a bum, always saying “I have no money.” The reason he has no money is because he spent it on everyone except his kids, which is why there is no reason to call him. I get accused of being a church mouse and my dad walks all over me. And it’s not like that at all. I haven’t seen him in four years and he doesn’t pay for anything, which is why I understand my mom’s frustration. But it just seems like no one cares about what I say in my family and it’s gotten to the point where I’m upset and I don’t tell anyone and most of the time I don’t want to tell them. There are too many things to write and describe but I really don’t want to be in this house anymore. But since I’m only in eighth grade, maybe I’m just being a drama queen.
