I'm not going to write anything long; I'm just going to post the main issue.
My dad lies. He is home with us all day, and my mom isn't. He takes a story or event, twists it up and then tells it to my mom when she gets home. My mom believes me when I tell her it's not true sometimes, but she usually goes with my dad's story. When I try to defend myself and tell my mom and dad that that's not really what happened, my dad says/yells "are you calling me a liar?!" or something along those lines. I end up getting in trouble for "calling him a liar" (mind you I only say that that's not exactly what happened) and then get in trouble for what I "did".
I don't know what to do...I can't move out yet; I can't defend myself; When I try to tell them both what's happening, no one listens and I get in even more trouble...
