My parents are kicking me out. I'm 17?
My dad called me and he said he's kicking me out when he gets back from home at 12 is when he gets back. He said I better pack my things and not to go to my uncles and if I do, he's gonna beat me up. He is kicking me out because I got in a really bad argument with my mom the day before and I got really mad and swore at her. He always says I'm disrespectful and stuff when I start to help around the house like they wanted. I also have good grades no C's at all. I'm 17 and still in high school. I'm still at home at the moment but my dad said he's gonna kick me out when he gets back so I better pack my things. Where do I go?
My parents are kicking me out, I have nowhere to go!?
My parents are kicking me out. I don't have a license or a car. I never took drivers ed, because my mom/dad refused didn't pay for it. I have 450 dollars saved up from my 13 hours a week job at a retail place. A back pack full of clothes, but I don't have anywhere to go, or relatives/friends to go to because we're new to this state. I don't even have a phone, because they're always busy making sure my older brother has the best of everything. He doesn't work, didn't even graduate high school, smokes pot 24/7 (I know he does.) So anyways, what do I do? Where do I go? I'm 18, legal. I have nowhere to turn! Help me guys!! I feel like just taking the easy way out but I don't have a rope, but no. Please help me guys!!! Please!
My parents are kicking me out I'm 16?
Report them to your local social service agency and get help. added: Douglas Your totally crazy, there can be NO excuse to kick your child out of the house, no matter what that child did. Whatever happened to parental responsibility? The parents must seek help in the system rather than kicking someone out of the house, especially someone under the age of 18. This is one of these issues that really gets my blood boiling. No Parental Responsibility! Your belief is another example of our Throw Away Society. People who believe like you do are sick and need more help than this kid does. What ever happend to peoples' cherished beliefs of Family Values?
Help turning 18 this june (parents want to kick me out)?
There are so many teens on Yahoo Answers who seem so overly confident that they can make it on their own, it is refreshing to find someone who realizes it's hard. I'm not an expert on New York Law. Try talking to a social worker or your High School Guidance Counselor. In most states, they can kick you out when you turn 18. There are some laws in New York saying under some circumstances your parents may still be responsible for you until 21. I think that may just mean that if you go on public assistance they may send your parents a bill. See: http://public.leginfo.state.ny.us/menugetf.cgi?COMMONQUERY=LAWS http://public.leginfo.state.ny.us/menugetf.cgi?COMMONQUERY=LAWS http://www.worldlawdirect.com/forum/family-law-matters/5065-can-my-18-year-old-son-move-out-his-own-legally.html Options to Consider 1.) Are your parents really serious? I don't know them, they may be. I do know many parents threaten to kick kids (or each other) out for years and never do. 2.) Have you Tried to Negotiate? Most of the time when parents threaten to evict a teen, it is because he is not working or going to school. Is that the case for you? (I apologize if it is not) You could also offer to pay rent. Chances are the number they come up with will be lower than real rent at an apartment, and you can still get free food from them. 3.) Staying With Relatives? Are your parents still married? If not, whatever parent you don't live with might be someone you could move in with. You could also try living with grandparents, Uncles, older siblings. 4.) Staying with Friends: You could see if you have any friends (or girlfriends) you can stay with. (Of course, there are risks if you choose the girlfriend option...be safe) 5.) College: Are you book smart? If so, go to college, It is real life with "training wheels", designed for 18 year olds. The trick is paying for it. If you get good grades and your parents are poor you may be able to get lots of financial aid. Fill out the FAFSA form early, go for the federal loans, and resist the temptation to borrow more than you need (You will have to pay it back some day). 6.) The Army Obviously has many risks, but is something to consider.
My mom wants to kick me out! Help?
(I know it's kinda long but please read it all so you know where I'm coming from. Thanks) I'm an 18 year old guy which obviously means I'm legally an adult but I know absolutely nothing about life and how to live on my own and do adult things. My mom has been threatening me with kicking me out despite I'm the only one who does chores and respects her. It's her new husbands doing really since he wants me out the house so he can take over but that's another story...Anyway, she kicked out my big brother without teaching him a thing and I've been afraid that she'll do the same to me. She promised that if I attended college and did chores (which I am doing right now) then I could stay until I got my college degree and enough money saved up. As I mentioned before, her new husband is putting crap in her head about me and she's now doing the whole "You have 3 months to leave" thing. I kinda have severe asthma and was hospitalized quite a bit as a kid...My greatest fear is dying due to not being able to breathe. I don't want to be kicked out on the streets when it's cold and die on my first night. Winter is coming up you know? So what do I do? I want to get a job but honestly don't know how to get one, where to look or anything. She just told me to google everything about what I'm supposed to do in life but I only know that I'll eventually have to pay bills and rent. So where do I start? What do I do now? I know nothing about my own medical stuff but is there was way I can order medication in advance? My doctors and dentist want to see me but she won't take me and I don't know how to make an appointment either or make her give me my personal information so that I can try to do it myself. I want her or somebody (anybody!) to teach me so that I can do it by myself. I hate being so dependent on her and so does she but she won't teach me (and didn't teach my brother) a single thing!
I m 18 Years old and adopted. My parents are kicking me out, What can I Do?
I have been able to get a job but there just isn't enough hours for me. My job has me come in for 3 hour shifts twice a week and it's just not enough. My checks are usually 40 and 50 dollars. I've been desperately trying to land another job for the past 5 months and I've been unsuccessful. I have no ties whatsoever to my family and there is no friend's house I could just crash at.. This is stressing me out so much I feel so hopeless. Any advice?
