The only thing I can advise you on is to be carefull when moving in with a family, who are also your friends. If the dynamics aren't just right, things could go bad quickly. If either party of the friend/family unit is not secure in their relationship, people could get hurt. I'm not just talking sexualy either. If the couple has a fight, and either party comes to you for advice, then the other person may feel that you are siding and "ganging" up on them. And since you mentioned that they have money problems, I forsee lot's of fights.
I am telling you this from my personal experience. Hopefully, if this is what you choose to do, things will not play out like this, but I wanted to give you a heads up. I moved in with my married friends and their daughter once, then later when they needed help they moved in with me, but each time it just got a little weird and strained the friendship.
About your dad, just talk to him. You shouldn't feel like you have to stay. I'm sure he will be ok without you. It would might actually be good for him, to learn to be on his own and make new friends. And you won't be that far away if he needs you.
Good luck!
