talk to her or live with your dad if you can? She’s probably changing for his sake to stay with him for your sake of having shelter and some sort of income to take care of you. My mother put me in that position when I was little too. But the guy I tried being nice put I was too protective of my mother. Try to open up with the new guy and see what your mom see’s in him. It might workout and ask your mom once in a while if she needs help or if you can do something for her and that will make her wonder if she’s doing something right or wrong!

give her some time i bet shes just having trouble with everything thats going on right now. people tend to let out their anger on the people they love they most. its not your fault and you wont lose her. your mom may not be completely happy with her new boyfriend if he is a jerk but you dont want to end up homeless. just talk to her i bet she understands shes just stressed.
