Are they good parents?

My mom and dad would go out 3-4 times a week to the bar from 5p.m to at least midnight if not longer getting completely **** faced. When they come back home they either wake us ( my brother and I ) up by yelling or bumping into things. The next day after drinking so much they just start yelling at us for no reason for for little reasons. They don't really cook anything for us, and they just but Burger King or what ever. And to have fast food basically everyday or every 2 days isn't good for you! Last week I had a fever of 103 so I stayed home from school resting. My parents were at work, my brother at school. My parents came home and started yelling at me saying why didn't I do the dishes? I was home all day. When they both knew I was sick! But the bottom line is, both my parents smoke a lot, drink a lot, yell a lot, hardly ever cook or clean anything. And it's not like I could move out or anything I'm only 15 and my brother's 17. I told my mom that I'm done everything now and that I hate her and my dad. I mean can you blame me? Are they good parents? And what should I do?

    I believe you are being neglected, Natsu. Since you live in Chicago, call the Illinois Child Protective Services at Illinois Child Abuse Hotline at 800-25-ABUSE (22873). Tell them exactly what you are writing to us.
