ok this isnt really abuse. i get fights like this with my parents but the thing to do is say to ur mum, whats wrong. maybe your doing something that makes her upset? i dont no because i get accused all the time trust me! child abuse would be more physical but at the end of the day your mum will always love you she just might not like you sometimes. and stay out the house dont worry, just tell her that u deserved that and just let the anxiety go over your head.

maybe what you should do is go live with another family member who you get along with well and get all your things from you parents house, and just go where you chose and talk to them back and fourth...... just do something that will make you happy and keep you and your parents from staying out of fights

you sound like my friend

you have many options
1.call the cops because it is she could have killed you
2.tell a trusted adult that would help and fight bak for you
3.fight back

those are 3 options i tell my friend but she dont do any of them i kno u love her but if she chased you out in the cold that is wrong
yes it is abuse she basically tried to kill you and didnt take responsibility as your parent by giving you a home to be in wen it is cold so pick one of the above and do it before it is too late

love ya

Way too vague to answer.

You ran outside into the cold and she yelled at you in anger telling you to not come back inside.

That does not sound like abuse. Now, if she locked you outside for a significant period of time (read, more than 5-10 minutes to teach you a lesson) then it could be considered abuse because she placed you in harms way.

If she just yelled at you, then no it really isnt and I'd lean towards you just looking for justification to make yourself more mad at her and to try to ignore your part in the fight.

This question is patentedly unanswerable because of the severe lack of information. We dont know enough about past and present history to tell you.

The answer of the poster below me is ridiculous. Comparing you (who are probably 14-18) to locking a 2 year old outside is stupid and shortsighted. Do not take such answers as truth, even though they may tell you what you want to hear. I'm beginning to wonder if shes a 15 year old girl pretending to be a grandmother to be taken more seriously.

No, that's not child abuse or atleast its not something that you would get taken away for. Child abuse is when the child is mentally or physically abused such as being hit or being called really bad names and making the child feel really bad about themselves. If your mom wants to lock you out of the house for a few hours, that's her own form of punishment and you should learn to respect her and not get in fights if you don't want to be punished. Child abuse is when the child does nothing wrong or does something little and gets punished to the extreme. You were not. I'm sure everyones parents or atleast a lot of peoples parents have done that before. Next time run up to your room and lock the door.

Hope this helped!
