  • Here's my advice, deal with it until you turn 18. While you are dealing with it, save your money up. Then when you turn 18, maybe you and one of your friends could move in together, that way you aren't doing it alone. Having 2 people to share the financial burden will really help. Good luck =) I really hope that thing get better for you.
  • You could move in with relatives or read up on emancipation of minors in Wisconsin: http://www.law.cornell.edu/topics/Table_Emancipation.htm Scroll down to Wisconsin.
  • that's teenage life if they're abusing you or doing something the authorities need to know about, then by all means make the call. but if you're wanting to move out cause they're strict then join the club. i thought of it too just recently, but realize how much you're shooting yourself in the foot by literally moving out and spending all that money imagine the kind of money you could make and then save if you didn't spend it on bills, which is really the only thing you gain by moving out. BUT, that was a huge tangent i guess. sorry haha. maybe move in with a relative? good family friend? you won't have all the legal rights as an adult, but maybe it's better than staying home
  • Someone- I remember it well. Went away to college at 17 and had a blast. How about you?
  • Do you have any relatives with whom you get along? How about best friends, whose family loves you like their own? Time sometimes takes care of these situations, but it sounds to me as if you need to change your environment sooner rather than later..going out into the world on your own would not be a good option, so I hope you can find some solution that will be good for you now and in the long term. :)
  • I had a friend who was in a similar situation. He had himself put into fostercare and became a foster kid for awhile. It got him out of the awful mess at his parent's home and he had a place to be, people who cared and food. He was able to finish high school and the comparatively quiet time gave him a chance to figure out what he was going to do later. Go to the social service agencies in your area. Be certain to tell them with all the energy you have, just how bad things are and how you must have an alternative, NOW!!! I wish you luck. Just keep going. Things will get better even if you have to stay where you are for awhile longer.
  • well if its really that bad theres always Shelter. theres a Shelter in West Bend, a few in Milwaukee, places like that. idk its not the best place to go cuz its mostly for little trouble makers. but your on ur own...ur just stuck there then. in ur own little pod. now that i think of it that sucks. idk im 17 also and my parents drive me crazy...but right now i have never been closer to anyone in my family...i got into some trouble and being tried as an adult..so im looking at 12 and a half years for a mistake done by a kid.. i was in jail over the weekend never missed my parents more.
  • avoid moving out at all costs, however if you are seriously in danger then you should get out... my best idea for moving out would be a commune... something like zendik farm in WV... if youve got no money its a good kind of place to go, get an apprenticeship and learn a skill for whenever it is you decide to live, but finishing high school first would be advised.
