<prompt> Human: Ive made the mistake of coming out as LGBT to my parents, and theyve decided that I have a year to move out. Im 18, so theres not much I can do to fight this, I suppose. Thing is, this kind of puts a dent in my entire life. I have no money, no job experience or job, and I just graduated high school and am in the process of enrolling in a community college. The rest of my family refuses to support me, so I cant stay with any of them. Ive asked friends if I could move in with them, but none of them are able to take me in right now. Twelve months is a good amount of time to prepare, I assume, but my parents wont help me get started on finding work or how to even find a job, they just tell me that Im on my own. Theyre still letting me eat their food, for now.I live in southeastern Ohio, so its not hard for me to find a somewhat cheap apartment, but I dont even know how to begin approaching a realtor or whatever about renting. I dont know what a decent pay for a job is, beyond not minimum wage thanks to my dads lovely answer, and I dont know how to search for a job. Most of all, I still want to enroll in college. The community college Im signing up for is very flexible with its students, and I dont want to have give up on going because Ill have to work. I assume that my life for the next few years will be work and school, but at this point Im ok with that as long as I can pursue a degree. Sorry if there are any details that Ive missed. Any advice is appreciated.  <response>: Well, I am truly sorry that your coming out is what made your parents do this. Thats really rotten.BUT - what was your plan otherwise? Think of this as a good kick in the ass to get your life in order. The circumstances are vile, but youve got a good chance here.I would postpone community college for a year and get 2 or even three jobs. Work as much as you POSSIBLY can for the next year and save every single penny. Even at minimum wage jobs, you should be able to save several thousand dollars that will give you a major advantage when you move out. Then youll have money for an apartment, transportation, etc. Youll want to hold on to one part time job when you start college.Youll be ok. Truly, you will. It sounds really daunting right now but you have an entire year to get this going!
