If your situation is truly that bad you call the Social & rehabilitation services in your area and tell them your situation. They can get you out.

Go to this website: www.covenanthouse.org
they take in teenage runaways. no questions asked. Read the stories about the kids who lived on the street first. It is very hard.They have places all over the US and Mexico and Canada. Soon, at 16 you will be able to get a job, and maybe get your own place. I know it is hard. I ran away myself when I was just 15, then again at 16. I always ended up back home and nothing changed. At 18, I moved out an never went back. An education is very important though, hard to get by on a job as a waitress for food clerk at McD's. The covenant house had helped millions of teens, they even get you back in school and/or help you get your GED diploma, and some even go to collge. Check them out.

i had a friend who felt this way.. and first off DONT RUN AWAY! they can call the cops and all it does is make it look like your crazy and all they can do really is send you back home if theres no type of abuse or if they dont provide food, shelter, education, and clothing, and i believe theres one more i can remember. buttt i recommend that you strait up tell your parents you CAN NOT live at home. tell them why, and be honest. tell them you are asking they help you and maybe you can move in with a relative.
worst case honey you might be stuck
try this site. its for children who are in a foster care it gives you an idea of what there about. worst case you can contact them and ask them what you can do in order to move out. dont be specific on what it exactly is, because they could get involved just speak of it as if things were bad.. DONT GIVE OUT ANY INFORMATION AND DONT CALL FROM YOUR HOUSE NUMBER..i swear those places like can track you down almost if its like 911.. so i've heard that is i could be wrong but to be on the safe side.. and if they try asking you what it is DONT jsut tell them. foster homes aren't as fun as it seems. now adays people take care of foster children just for money they'd recieve from the state thats required whenever you take a child into your home like that. and alot of the times they treat you just as bad as your real family if not even worse.

if your too scared to contact them honestly tell me. i will call myself (:
i live in CA by the way, but i will do it. anything to help you out i can do. ill search for some other solutions and if i do ill re-edit my advice.
good luck and god bless.. just remember you can't ever pick your family. god gave you them and them you for a reason.. whether its good or bad, you just have to take it and make the best of it.
**EDIT***
try these.. i didnt really search the actual site just found it for you to read about

hmm...i think you can go to like one of those child protector lawyers and tell them you want to move...but they will probly just put u into foster care till yur 18...or you could run away from hoome and live with a friend and tell yur parents you dont wana live with them...thats wut my cousin did....anyway or you can emancipate from them by going to a judge about it. hope it works out ok
Peace
