Answer #1

Techanically it is both yors and your dads fault.Your for lyeing his for getting the ticket. Tell your mom plans changed and it has been moved to next month that way you wont break her heart from lyeing to her and then not come at all.

Answer #2

hmmm…so let me get this straight…you lied about the day you were moving because you wanted to see your mom. now you feel guilty about it, and you’re not sure what to do.

so…I would just tell your dad the truth. tell him that you really wanted to be able to see your mom and that’s why you lied. Talk to your mom about it and tell her the truth too. If she doesn’t want to stay that long before you really move, remember that you’ll be able to see her all the time after you’ve moved.
