No, you're not wrong but unfortunately you will have to live with your parents until the laws of your state allow you to be out on your own. In the event they are physically abusive, then you can call the law and be put in a foster home.

 

Once you're out on your own and have enough money, you'll need a lot of counselling to get over the anger and hurt from your childhood. You have come from a very screwed up family and it could take you a while to heal from that.

 

I'm very sorry you're having to go through this. I can certainly understand why you would be mad at the world.

Hello there,

Sorry, I can't really offer you much advice except to just stick things out until you're old enough to move out on your own.

 

I really just wanted to tell you that I'm sorry for the rotten childhood you've had to endure. You sound like a very bright young lady.

 

I too grew up in a somewhat screwed up home...my Mom was very physically/mentally and emotionally abusive.....just plain mean and cruel a lot of the time and now at age 35, when I think back to growing up, whenever I remember a "good time" as akid, I still get that sort of 'sinking feeling' because I also remember the tension in our home and always having to walk on eggshells for fear of making my mom angry and her going ballistic. Because of growing up with crap like this, I know it lead me to go from one abusive relationship (and marriage) to another...because subconsciously, I thrived on the drama and tension and chaos; it was 'familiar' to me.

 

I didn't know back then about counselling or how one's childhood could impact them as an adult.

 

I hope you will be able to find yourself a school counsellor or pastor or trusted adult to talk to someday about all that you've endured......because you will need some help to help you heal from all you've been through.

 

Hugs,

JAG2
