I need to get away from my house?
Hi I'm 15 and been living with my mom on and off for my whole life. Writhing the past two years I've lived with my grandma and two friends. I moved back in with my mom a few months ago when she got her house but she's had legal custody of me this whole time. Since I've move back in she hasn't stopped drinking. She drinks everyday and smokes weed and gets drunk and fights with me a lot and I'm usually never here because I can't stand the fighting. Last night we fought for almost two hours and I can't take it anymore. She isn't a good mom and I don't know what else to do. There are no other adults I trust who I can talk to who can help me. I don't really want to run away but I will as a last resort. Who can I go to, to help me get away ?

3 AnswersLaw & Ethics7 years agoTwo teenage girls bored at night in a small town?
First off no makeovers or anything like that because we are more emo/scene type girls, but we still like to do fun stupid stuff. Not trying to label ourselves, but we are not the type of girls who like makeovers and stuff. Anyway we are allowed to walk up and down the street, but not go anywhere and no one can come over and we can't buy anything. Any good ideas of fun stuff to do?
4 AnswersOther - Games & Recreation7 years agoDo you think the states should be more lenient with homeschooling laws?
I live in Ohio which require you to provide you to make a portfolio of what you've learned that year and the superintendent decides if you should stay with homeschooling or come back to public school. I fell like all the states should be like Indiana. Parents should be able to school their kids however they want and it shouldn't be any of the school's business. We are going to start unschooling next school year and I wish we could have a little more freedom with it. What do you guys think?

3 AnswersHome Schooling7 years agoDid Ohio's homeschooling laws change?
I read somewhere that this kid's mom's boyfriend was beating him and one of the teachers reported it so his mom took him out and homeschooled him and he died because his mom's boyfriend beat him so badly and now all parents who want to homeschool their kids in Ohio have to have backround checks and social works have to come in your home and question the kids. Is this true? If not could I get a good link to Ohio's homeschooling laws? Please don't be rude and thanks for helping :)

2 AnswersHome Schooling7 years agoHow do I get my mom to stop yelling at us so much?
My whole life my mom has always yelled at me and my little brothers. I'm 13 and my little brothers are 10 and 4 and my mom can't just like talk to us in a normal voice she always has to yell especially when shes really mad. And she yells at us for really stupid things sometimes like spilling water which is so easy to clean or if we didn't hear her or something. Everyone in my family has tried to tell her she needs to stop yelling, but she thinks she knows absolutely knows everything so she won't listen. Last night me her and my 4 yo brother were driving home and she was yelling at him because he was upset because he dropped his cars on the floor and couldn't reach them (hes very sensitive about his cars) and I was fed up so I told her to stop the car I was gonna walk home and so we got in to a big fight about it and she kept telling me about how im not a parent i dont know what im talking about and im the kid and shes the adult so that means everything i say is wrong and shes right and that i need to stop telling her what she needs to do and if she doesnt yell we wont listen which isnt true. I babysit my 4 yo brother and he listens to me and i never have to yell or spank him and I cant take her yelling anymore it makes me not even want to be around her anymore and were homeless right now im at the library using the computer and no one wants to let us live with them because they cant stand her yelling all day for no reason. So what should I do I really need some help please. And if you were wondering my mom is only 30 shes not married but she has a boyfriend who loves and is trying to help us as much as he can but she isnt putting any effort in on her side. And I know she isnt abusing my physically but she is mentally and she doesnt realize how much it hurts us and she thinks there is nothing wrong with yelling at us like that so she doesn't want to get help but me and my brother both have depression it runs in our dads side and she refuses to accept that and my brother has even said he wanted to kill himself before because its to painful to be in this world and I'm the same way but hes 10 he shouldn't be feeling like that.

1 AnswerFamily7 years agoShould I ask him out?
Ok so I've liked this guy for a few months and he just got dumped by his really s**tty girlfriend. She left him for someone else even though hes a really sweet guy. So I know hes just getting over the breakup because he took it pretty seriously, but we were talking the other night and we kinda both said we kinda like eachother (we are shy people so we were txting and we didnt say much..) then he asked me if we did go out would I ever do what she did and I promised I wouldn't, but then he had to go because he was using a friends cell because he doesn't have his own and that was wednesday. So I won't get to talk to him until Monday at school if I'm lucky. We don't really see eachother at school. So should I ask him out or wait for him to or should we just talk more or what should I do I don't know. Please nice answers and the answer that helps the most will get ten points. And also guys I want your opinion. Do you like to ask the girls out or have them ask you? And is there a way she can ask you out that will make it more special or make it seem like it matters?

2 AnswersSingles & Dating8 years agoI don't know what to do and no one will answer my question?
Ok so I moved back to my old school this year and I'm "Emo" and so are most of my bestest friends. So there was this boy who moved here who I didn't know and i found out his name was Brandon and I thought hes pretty cute I'm gonna get to know him. So I told my best friend Lyssa that I liked him and she should be my wingman. So the next day I hear they are dating and i'm very p***ed off at her.... So they've been dating from 9/7 and then on the 2nd she told me she broke up with him. (Which her relationships never last more than a few weeks) So I asked why and she said "Because he was trying to cheat on me with Brittany and I really like someone else." I thought it was pretty funny because Britanny has had a steady boyfriend for a month and he never even talks to Brittany and the person she likes is in 2 years older than us and my cousin used to date him and he's a huge *** so I hope she gets whats coming to her. And I felt really bad because he treated her like a princess and then she just dumped him for someone else... like really? (/-_-)/ So it must have got around that I like him because we were walking home one day and he said "I heared that you like me. Is it true?" So I said yeah, but then we had to go our different directions to get home. So that was wednesday and we had Thursday and Friday off school. So Thursday he started texting me from his friend's cell (He doesn't have his own) and we were just geting to know eachother better since we don't really see eachother much at school and I asked what came to his mind when he heard my name and his response was "Kind, sweet, loving, caring, and one of my good friends." So I said thanks and I can't remember what he asked me, but he said ok you can ask me anything this time. So I asked do you like me? And he said "You know now that I get to know you I think i do." Then he said can I ask you something so I said sure and he asked "If we did go out would you ever do to me what she did?" and I said no I promise I would never do something like that. So after that he said he had to go him and his friend were going to bed. So I havn't talked to him since. If you were me what would you do?? I really need some advice. I dont really have anyone to talk to about this since it was my bestfriend who left him.,.. Answers would be greatly appriciated. Please nothing rude and please ask some of your friends to answer this.. Thanks guys :)
4 AnswersFriends8 years agoDoes this count as my first period?
So from the 27th to the 30th I saw brown stains in my underwear and I didn't have a clue what it was, but then I though it could be my period so I looked around online and couldn't get any good information. So I know it's called spotting, but does it count as my first period and will my next one come in 28 days? I can't ask my mom for help because I live with my dad and I can't talk to him about this kind of stuff and I'm to embarrassed to ask my sister.... And also I refuse to use pads thats so gross to be practically sitting in your own blood so which brand of tampons do you reccommend? And any other information you could give me about periods would be super helpful. No rude answers please :(
