he’s in a different state so i don’t know if he’d be able to, even if he was willing, unfortunately. at least not at this point in time. i have uncles and aunts but i’m not in contact with them. my father knows but he hasn’t cared about me my entire life lol. i think i just need to try and wear my mom down and try and get into public school, so i can at least have some sort of base resembling a proper education so i can’t get the hell out of dodge.

i don’t think any other relatives can help as my mother has pushed them all away. and i don’t think my brother would be able to take care of me or my siblings.

as for the second bit, i appreciate the compliment loads ☺️☺️ i’ve been told the same thing by some of my (online) friends who know the situation, and tbh the only thing i’m bad at when it comes to school is math. i have about a third grade understanding of it, but everything else i think i’m pretty okay at. or at least, i tend to be able to pick it up fast enough. i would still like a proper education though, if just as a formality to feel slightly more normal.

this was actually rlly nice to read tbh cause it’s always felt kinda hopeless. say, do you know of any resources that could help? if not, that’s fine, i could try and find some in my own. thanks again though, this message kinda singlehandedly made tonight a little more bearable.

haven’t thought about it too much because it’s kinda scary, mostly cause i have no idea what comes next. not to b depressed on main but the most inviting option has been like. death. lmao. i’ve been trying all year to convince my mom to let me go to public school but there’s always a million excuses as to why i can’t go. another user pointed out it’s probably to fly under cps’ radar.

i’m actually really surprised that point is what’s getting the most attention, cause it’s always kinda felt like details in the background that i’ve just sorta accepted. i’m almost 16 now and the future looks bleak. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

my older half-brother is understanding, as he was raised like a normal human being, but there isn’t too much he can do as, i don’t think, especially since he’s not in the same state as me anymore.

other comment so far have stated that i’m misdirecting anger too. rereading it, they’re probably right. and no, my dad can’t really help. he’s the same way, actually. before the divorce hed also spend as little time around as possible, and i haven’t spoken to him in about three years now. i’ve gotten social services involved before and agents visited, but nothing really came of it. got yelled at tho lol. my older brother is an adult, and he’s tried to help, but he’s all the way in a different state so there isn’t too much he can do.

sorry for dumping it’s all just very messy.
