If mom is receiving child support from your dad or SSI money for you; those funds would switch to your sister if you mom allowed you to live with her. If your mom relies on that money for her own purpose, which she shouldn't be, then this will be a tough problem to overcome.
The place to start though would be to ask your sister to talk to your mom. With summer just around the corner maybe your sister could ask your mom if you could spend all or part of the summer with her. Then she could tell mom how much better you like living with her and see if something more permanent can't be arranged. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]

My younger brother went to live with my older brother in another state because of problems here but he couldn't get into school because they need the parent to sign for everything. Your sister wouldn't be able to sign anything for the school.
It's best if you just try to tough it out till you graduate high school. [ lightoftruth's advice column | Ask lightoftruth A Question ]
