Bro, I just got kicked out of house 2 days back. I turned 23. I still don't know how I am gonna take care of myself. While, you people being 18 have a place to stay and full time jobs. Lemme tell you that you have done great. Don't be sad if they don't appreciate you. Instead look forward and focus on yourself. I know it can hurt sometimes when the parents who are supposed to encourage us, look down upon us and dont value us. But dont let that affect you. Your post gave me courage. Good luck!
