<3 Henry Ford once said, "Whether you think you can or think you can't, you're right." Just remember what you CAN be, what happens right now is just experience to be better in the future-

Hi aki.
I'm currently in a grup chat with my pathfinder club and its getting weirdand confusing

I'm in my retirement community in Florida. So I have a faraway perspective on teenage problems, to say the least. I was in high school in the 70's. No cable, no internet, no cellphones or tablets. We were outside a lot, especially since air conditioning wasn't a wide-spread thing in homes yet. We wrote letters in summer (yes, in envelopes with stamps) because some of my friends were long distance calls (I lived in a sparsely-populated county with lots of farms, so everyone went to the same high school). Long distance was pricey, too. It would cost you x amount for 3 minutes and x amount for each minute after. Calling my aunt in Columbus, OH on her birthday cost my parents 2 hours' pay for 3 minutes.

No, it's not a "I had it tougher than you" story, it's just to point out how different the world was when I was a teen.

A few words of advice for you, though. If you are actually being emotionally or physically abused you can talk to your guidance counselor or other trusted person (teacher, principal, etc) who can get you professional help and even have child services investigate your claim. Be aware, though, if you are removed from the home you will probably have to roll the dice with foster care.

If you want to be an emancipated teen, you have to first prove you can do it. In California, that means you must live on your own with no financial help from any relative at all for 2 years. That means getting a job, finding a place to live, making your own bill payments, etc. Then you are an adult and have the same rights as an adult, but also the same responsibilities. You will be treated as an adult by law enforcement, insurance companies and bill collectors. You cannot get financial aid assistance for college through your parents.

I know this because my stepdaughter hated her mother's rules (go to school, do your homework, don't run around by sneaking out at night). So I investigated it for her. She told me "I just want to be free to do my own thing and not have any rules." To which I pointed out that everyone making rules for her right now cared about her and her safety and her future, while adults have lots of people who don't care making rules. The landlord, your boss, the government, the utilities, the bank holding the loan on your car or mortgage on your home, etc.

So if you really need to get out, there are ways. I was in a bad marriage I had to leave, so I understand emotional and physical abuse and finding a way to live on your own after you have to leave the house you're living in and subsist on 1/3 the money. You'll do anything if you're in a desperate situation. But don't go blindly jumping from the frying pan into the fire. I know it seems like forever, but 4 years isn't that far away. Think back 4 years to the age you were then and you'll see what I mean.
