your right.
I have made plans to move out, but i have no money, well i do, but not much. Im just 18 and work at blockbuster.
My mom says 'where will you go, homeshelter, get stabbed? robbed? you know i lived on the street buster, you dont know nothing. you sure can live on the street but you will ruin your future'
I know if i do it will slow things down, i cant get into collage for a while. My mom said she will put me in collage, she has money, but she WILL control many things.
My dad, (divorced) has a law firm, which i used to work for, but he has his own mental issues, He puts me down in a diffrent way. Why arnt you the son i wanted? i blow it off, i know he is covering his insercurity. I went to MY MOM to get away from him. He makes good money, but i cant live with him and be HIS slave.
My mom and him HATE HATE HATE! eachother, 'listen you motherfuck*r, you keep your trash mouth away from him, he is MY SON, and you have NO custody over him, you got it! ....... 'he has been warped and sabatoged by YOU, you made him this way, you are the mentally disturbed woman i have EVER met, even in my work'.........'You are a drunk, corrupt, bastard, you are NO role model and you woould tear anyone down, thats why it was DIVORCE"
.......'I have had it, you do what ever you want, im done with you carol"Im sorry this is where my life is stuck.

Matt, I'm really sorry about your situation. As a parent myself, it's difficult for me to understand other parent(s) unwilling to advocate for the wellbeing of their offspring when you KNOW there is a problem to be dealt with ------ no matter how messed up *I* as a person might be. It's goes against my beliefs and feelings I have for the wellness and seeking a good quality of life for my child - if it is within my power to try and accomplish that. It is very difficult for me to comprehend. That being said, I know your circumstances are not, sadly, unique.
I do wish you the best in seeking help for yourself.
I know it's challenging.Glydin

Matt, I'd forgotten about your father. He drinks right? If I'm wrong I apologize. You really need to contact Social Services. Maybe a Group home for a while? Fondly, Phillipa

At least you're only 18 and you'll still get out of that. I used to live beside a man in his forties who was living with his parents and those screaming matches were heard daily between him and his mother. She'd always call him names and good for nothing laying around all day smoking pot, and he'd call her a f*cking bitch and doors slammed and people stormed out of the house frequently. Awful to watch and awful to live too maybe.

I'm so proud of you!
Go talk to the people at the college. You can get financial aid and only go part-time; find enough money and go full-time. (check with them on the # of hours required.) You can also check out huge books at the library that list scholarships you can apply for. You can find all kinds of stuff online, too. But don't pay anyone to find money for you--that's a big rip-off. Your high school counselor will have info on how to get started and about local scholarships you could apply for.
There are ways to declare yourself independent from your parents and get help based on your income and not theirs. Talk to the school and explain the situation. They can help you with jobs, housing, finding a roommate if you need one, etc.
You have plans to move out? To an apt. or what? Will you be alone or are you moving into a friend's place with their parents?
