No you shouldn’t do it. Let them deal with their stuff and help your Mom where you can. But she wouldn’t want you to sacrifice your future for a short term problem (the divorce). You deal with your own stuff and not the soon to be ex’s…

again, don’t drop out of college. your mom’s a big girl and she needs to fend for herself. it’s not worth the regret you’ll have later, nor the resentment you’ll have for your mother.

Do Not Drop Out! That’s not going to solve anything, and will probably just cause problems for you.

I obviously don’t know you or your family, but it would seem that your stepdad is way out of bounds for blaming you for the divorce.
