Answers:
omfg! im sooo sorry to hear about that, your parents are fucking sick bastards i have to say! They sound like there are seriously menatally ill and need professional help!
I have to say your bf sounds lovely for taking care of you and being there for you, i would personally give him a hug if i saw him.
Have you reported any of these incidents when you were younger to the NSPCC for example?
You are past 16 so therefore, intitiled legally to leave home and im sure the local council could set you up in a new estate away from your parents. However, although you are past the age of using childline and NSPCC you can always call the smaratins for more help and advice who could arrange your house setting and also prosecute those demon parents of your so you can get your just desserts.
If you ever wanna talk just email me or message me on madness17@hotmail.co.uk
i sure hope things improve for you and best of luck for the future xxx

call social services/child welfare services.they'll tell you what to do.
Talk to your school counselor.
see the school counselor and ask her for help in contacting the child welfare service to be made an emanciapated minor.
Depending on what state you live in and what sex you are.depends on if you are a runaway. Amom will be a mom and always worry but she has no right to place her hands on you, exspecially because of something your sister is doing.
Yes you are unless you become emancipated. You need to contact a lawyer to accomplish this.
Emancipation is the act of freeing or being freed/the reliquishment of control; its meaning encompasses both being able to be as one is (or as a political group chooses to be) without having to adjust to another power, while simultaneously being a contributing part or party to the whole. The latter segment helps distinguish the difference between emancipation and total independence; the term can be used in various contexts:
Emancipation of minors, where a minor becomes an adult in practice, usually by receiving a declaration of liberation from a court expressly for this purpose
If anyone punches you in the head you call 911.
Wow! I am so sorry for what you are going through - just remember that is not your fault. Your mother sounds like she has some issues and needs to address them before she ruins her relationship with you any further.
I would advise you to call the police when she hits you. I'm not sure how long it has been since she hit you last, but if there are any marks, call the police. They have to arrest her if they see physical evidence of an assault.
I would also advise you to get with a lawyer, pro bono of course, and see what steps you have to take to become emancipated. This will put you on the steps to becoming a full-fledged adult!
If she let you move out .. there could have been a law broken there too. You are still her child and under the age of 18 - this all depends on what state you are from too.
Good luck to you and I hope you find true happiness and peace.
You can get emancipated.talk to your school counselor and let him/her know exactly what is happening.or call social services.
I think you should call Children's Aid.
How is it you have a babysitter @ 17? Do you require constant care?
I would suggest emancipating yourself from your Mother (its like divorcing your parents), but if you need constant care, it might be difficult.
get out as soon as possible. Take your sister with you. There has got to be somewhere you both can be safe. I don't think that you would be considered a runaway. The govt and the court system will emancipate you because of the situation. Please get out for the sake of your future, and the future of your sister.
sometimes cps doesnt help ive been through these things before.calm down and tell yourself youre so much better than her because you would never do this to someone and realize how lucky you are that youre 17 and you wont have to deal with this much longer.if you want, think of somewhere you can stay (family friends) and tell your guidance counselor, theyll take care of it.stress to them that you CANT stay there hold on and if you need support please email me @ wickedlette97@yahoo.com

YES, UNLESS YOU ARE EMANCIPATED BECAUSE YOU ARE STILL CONSIDERED TO BE A MINOR AND HER RESPONSIBILITY. YOU CAN BECOME EMANCIPATED BY GOING TO COURT. THERE IS PAPERWORK THAT HAS TO BE DONE FIRST. YOU CAN ALSO CONTACT A CHILD ABUSE SERVICE. NEVER CONSIDER SUICIDE. ITS NOT WORTH IT THERE IS HELP AVAILABLE TO YOU. CALL 911, THEY CAN HELP ALSO. YOU DO KNOW THERE ARE LAWS AGAINST CHILD ABUSE.
I had a similar situation at home. I left when I was 19 years old and I do NOT regret it at all. The best decision I made. So what if ypu wolll be categorized as a runaway. say it like i did. i am a runaway and proud of it so **** off. The best thing in life is to be fre and independent and if ypur is a total ***** call the cops on her *** and call social services. If you are 17 you are still a monor and you will win the battle. If you wait after 18 you wont have anything to use to sue her ***. Save evidence, photograph the bruses, record her talking badly to you. etc. just make sure to have enough proof when you go to court. Take care and think now on you being free. it works.
p.s the court can enmancipate you if she is a bad parent.the other way is getting pregnant or married which you do not want to do so early in life. SUE HER ***!!
Yes that is running away. If you care about her you need to follow the pain. Find out why she is so mad. Anger is a replacement emotion, usually for fear. Follow the fear, tell her that you don't want her to hurt, tell her that you love her so much that you want to understand what it is that she is afraid of, that it hurts you to see her in so much pain.
Call the police when she strikes you. That is battery. If she hits you with something other than her hand it is considered aggravated battery. If she swings and misses its assault.
The question you need to ask your self is, why do you think she needs to take care of you? If you are 17 you should have already been taught how to take care of yourself, you should be helping her not fighting her. If you want to win a fight against someone you love you must learn to loose.
You could emancipate yourself from your parents. This basically means that you would be considered as an adult & would take care of yourself from that moment on.
i presume your mum is separated from your dad now. by the looks of it, your mum is obviously in a distraught.
she should be feeling very helpless with life and with no one or no idea whom to turn to. she is at her wits end in managing self, needless to say about her secondary responsibilities (you and your sis). she's giving herself too much pressure.
you are not useless and am probably the only one with a clearest state of mind right now, else you wouldn't be asking for help. therefore you must stay strong and give her whatever mental support and empathy. you fall right now, everyone fall.
seek professional assistant to aid you. understanding the problem will greatly help you too. approach the police as a last critical resort.
please call 911 or sumthing when you're not home.talk to someone older..please, you don't deserve any of this, get out of it as soon as you can, and your baby sister.she shouldn't grow up with a family like that as well.
