I’m seventeen and want to move out. I’m turing eighteen in december, but my mom is stressing me out too much over stupid stuff, and i can’t take the stress anymore. But i want to research the law and if my parents could do anything about it, or if i would get in trouble. My mom isn’t physically abusive, which is why i wouldn’t bother getting emancipated, cuz telling the judge that “My mom grounds me for stupid, and trivial stuff. And she wont’ let me ride a bike without a helmet. And she won’t let me hang out with friends who smoke EVEN THOUGH i turned a FRIEND down when he asked me to smoke. She underestimates me, and trys controling every aspect of my life. She takes my cell phone away, even though i pay EVERYTHING on my phone; my phone cost $60, the minutes cost between 43-56 dollars a month, i’ve had it for three months…that’s over $300 dollars. And she has the nerve to try and take it away from me!!?? And every day i dont’ use it, is a whole days worth of minutes i didn’t use, so I spent MY hard earned money on something that is a NECCESITY, not just a want, but a need, and she’s gonna waste MY money??” I can hear the judge laughing at me and telling me to stay at home already…and, i woudn’t yell…but i caps my words to underline them or emphasize them …anyway! I wanna know if i can, and if i can without going thru the system…as stupid as it sounds, i dont’ wanna put my siblings through this ordeal and i dont’ want my mom to turn my WHOLE family against me and make me out to sound like a rebellious, trouble maker that ran away. Cuz i know my mom would! She’s a drama queen like that. I can’t concentrate at school cuz i’m afraid that i’ll be grounded for a missing assignment, or being a lil bit late, which in return makes me do bad in school and makes me wanna not be at home, and i go slow when i’m going home…which as you can see, would make me late. I’m a good kid, i’ve made mistakes like smoking, and drank a lil bit (but alcohol is nasty and i hear my friends talk bout their hangovers and stupid hook ups, i don’t do that). But i’ve learned from those mistakes, and i’m alot more grown up than my mom will admit or knows. Me and my boyfriend have been together for a lil over two months, and i’m tired of only seeing him in school cuz my mom grounds me for a week. It doesn’t even feel like a good relationship anymore bcuz of my mom being a control freak and feeling the need to ground me for every little wrong doing. What can i do to escape her? RESEARCH the law, or if you actually KNOW the law, let me know. i dont’ want opinions! I want real facts, cuz i dont’ want the police out to get me if you said is wrong
i live in michigan
