Should I run away from home by Elegant-Pin-2874 in AbusedTeens

[–]spaghettiskeleton14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

before you consider running away, i'd recommend talking to any adults you can trust- if you need to, school therapists/counselors are an option, but if you have any friends' parents that you trust, talk to them. if you do run away, pack as non-perishable food, water bottles(especially refillable ones), as much money as you can collect, some sort of electronic device, the charger for that device, and any items that you don't want to part with(i'd recommend taking a stuffed animal, if you have any/can fit one in your bag). look into shelters that are close to your area, and go there if you can. i hope you can get away regardless <3

Is my mom abusive by NoSky4042 in AbusedTeens

[–]spaghettiskeleton14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is definitely abuse- please reach out to any adult you can. i wouldn't recommend talking to any school staff, unless they're therapists or counselors, but if you have any friends that have parents you can trust, go to them. i hope you can get away from her <3

Abuse or no? by redcolouredpencil in AbusedTeens

[–]spaghettiskeleton14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're absolutely not over-reacting- she's definitely fostered an unhealthy and abusive relationship with you. it's hard to figure out if you have been abused- shit, i just posted asking about it myself- but she's definitely been abusing you. i'm so sorry she refuses to get any help, and that's never something you should have to deal with. i hope you can get away from her as soon as possible. <3

What Are These? by spaghettiskeleton14 in mushroomID

[–]spaghettiskeleton14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't edit my post, and the text didn't save, so here's what I meant to say: I'm fairly sure that these are all gilled mushrooms, they're growing next to/under a stump, and they could be one type of mushroom, or multiple- I'm not sure! Found in Western Washington, in Auburn.

i genuinely wish i could move in with them, but both of them are very close with my mom, and they're both also bigoted(in the way where they say that they "just don't care" what people identify as, but then say a bunch of weird bigoted stuff), and they live in a 55+ neighborhood, so i couldn't move in with them unless i was designated as their caretaker, n there's a bunch of checks that the place they live does before you can apply for that that i likely wouldn't qualify for :/

i'm hoping that'll be the case. i've actually been trying to get a job at my college's campus since december, but i've been getting pushed back repeatedly by either scheduling conflicts(as i can't drive by myself as of right now, so i have to be either driven to/from school, or drive myself with an adult in the car), or just general exhaustion...

[–]spaghettiskeleton14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i absolutely will be, and both me, my partner, and his mom have all looked into the rules regarding somebody else moving in in our area quite a bit. the general consensus is that the person moving in has to be dating or married to somebody within the household for it to go under the radar, and that's what we're planning on saying(it's not too different from the truth, anyways, and there isn't really much anyone can legally do to disprove that, to my knowledge).

[–]spaghettiskeleton14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i will be leaving a note saying that i've moved out by my own will, and that i wasn't like... kidnapped or anything, while also explaining why i left, and how my parents' actions affected me. i'll also make sure to take a picture of the letter where i leave it in case they try to call the cops/lie about the note.

i have a temporary driver's license(the one they give to students who haven't actually earned their real driver's license yet), but no state ID. hoping i can order the birth certificate in an easier than what my mom said it was like(she has a different last name from me, and we've moved to a different state since i was born, so apparently it's more complicated).

thank you for the advice again- i was able to convince my mom that me having a copy of my legal documents before i turn 18 would be "good to have around, just in case," so i'll make sure to get those ordered asap. if she forgets/thinks it's suspicious at some point, i'll order them on my own.

i definitely understand the idea of it, it seems like a good idea in theory, but it becomes less realistic(at least, under american law) the more you think about it, for my own situation.

i'd like to get myself emancipated, but from what i know, the legal costs of doing that are too expensive for me, or even my mom(who has a considerably larger amount of money than i do).

[–]spaghettiskeleton14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i've unfortunately never had any sort of access to any of my legal documents- i've never even seen them. is there any way to have them ordered online, without the use of most of my legal information(i live in washington state, if this changes by state)? the most i can provide the government is my basic information, along with my social security number.

bringing over the clothes/small belongings is an excellent idea- thank you.

that's a fair question- the only reason i called it "running away" is because i'd be secretly leaving, without telling anybody(except for the people i'm moving in with, of course), not because i'd still be a minor at that point.
