Moving from my mums house to my dads

[Unregistered]

I'm 15 years old and met my dad for the first time in my life about a year ago and already feel that my relationship and similarities are much greater than with my mum and step-dad. Ive never felt wanted at home before i met my father i had been so unhappy and confused as to why my mum or dad didnt want me however now that ive grown older i have realized that my step dad has controlled my mother in such a way that she doesn't focus on me anymore. When i was younger i ran away from home 3 times (one time i tried running away from school so i didn't have to go back). But if i leave home now i feel bad leaving my 3 year old brother with them when i do as much parenting for him as they do, because they like to go out to get drunk often!!! I also more or less adopted the family dog as my own because the same as everything around the house i do everything for him. I really dont know what to do
