with the fridge handle frm our old fridge. its made out of metal. i really don't think she has the right to be doing that regardless of the things i do which are not that damn seriuous. i have no life. she calls me ugly, talks about my lips being big and makes me feel really bad. i graduate in june and i think i need to find the courage 2 tell her i want 2 go dwn south and go to school dwn there so i can live with my aunt in miami. it's just so hard. she tells me i need 2 get out and she's not responsible for me but she always contradicts her ownself. she still treats me like a child. i know if i was to really decide to leave she wouldn't let it be just that she's all talk...my aunt is now worried because she thinks she's going to hurt me (which she says...she threatens to kill me! often) what should i do?????
by the way my sister is eight and they are actually close. it's only me that this happens too....she rarely ever puts her hands on her. matter of fact when i was her age i got hit for the smallest things
Well, it short term, yes, you are being treated wrong. If you are under 18 you need, and I stress need to call the cops or social services on your mom[?]
You are being physically and mentally abused. Nobody deserves that. You are gradutating this year, you don't need her adding onto your stress.
As I said, you need to call the cops or social servises on your mom.
As for you wanting to go to college in Florida, go ahead and apply. Do what you want to do. Its your life, if you want to go to college there, then go. Don't worry about her.
christina answered Monday April 2 2007, 1:43 pm: Yeah, you are being treated wrong. Your mother verbally & physically abusing you. I suggest you call the cops on her & see what happens. You need to get out of that household immeadiately since it's a danger to your health. But if you do that, they might take your sister away too even if she is close with your mom, they're not gonna believe it. For the safety of everyone, you guys have to be removed from your mother's house.
If you won't do that, try & find a friend to stay with until you graduate. In the meantime, apply to some Southern colleges & see if you get accepted. If so, then move in with your aunt in the summer, & continue life normally. My mom used to go through this type of abuse too, and she hasn't spoken to her mother in years because of it.
