Unless your mother is whacking the shit out of you all the time or endangering your life there is no way either of you will be seperated. She has a right to discipline you, spank you, etc. for discipline methods. Verbal abuse exists and I have no idea what she is or is not saying to you though.

To professionals it may not sound like verbal abuse. Have you ever said to her "I know you are angry but why are you saying those kind of things to me.? Odds are she is not THINKING before she says them.

If you feel this is serious which it could indeed be tell a teacher or a trusted adult. There is not a thing we can do to keep physical or verbal abuse from happening over here. You need a teacher, counselor, fellow adult to fix the situation for you and with you. Do not be scared to ask for help.

Thank you so much! I have been away from this site for a while and I realized that the person who saved me from making the biggest mistake of my life never got thanked! THANK YOU! My sister called on her and went into foster homes and is COMPLETELY screwed up. All that happened with me was that I said I hated my hair and my mother said if I hated it that much I should shave my head. I can't believe I was stupid enough to think about getting myself put in foster homes over that! I really think you saved my life. If I was my sister now, I don't think I could live with myself.
