<prompt> Human: As of late my dad has been feeling personally challenged by me even though I havent really done anything to him, he goes on and on about how he deserves my respect but I have been nothing but respectful to him. He said I have 2 weeks to get my stuff collected and get out of his house. Im not really sure how Im going to be able to support myself, and go to highschool at the same time. Im honestly freaking out right now, and I dont know how its possible or what I should do. How can I make enough money to live in a small apartment and go to highschool at the same time? I currently have no money, should I just start selling all my stuff? I cant really work another job right now either because Im interning for IT, I wont be getting money from the IT job for at least another 2 months. After that Ill be making around 15 dollars an hour which I think is enough to rent a small apartment. How should I budget out my money? What should I do for work? How can I make the best out of this situation? Im so young and I dont understand anything. I just need some advice.EDIT: Thank you guys so much for your words of advice and encouragement it really means a lot, I will keep you guys updated and ask future financial questions here. You guys are a great group of people and I hope you know that.8-21-2018 10:15 PM: I am now out of the house I sold most of my belongings on ebay, and am currently paying a small rent to live with my friend and his parents. Theyre only making me pay 100 dollars a month, and I am so grateful that they decided to let me stay with them. My Bishop reached out to them and they agreed to let me live there and pay for my food, and clothes if I just pay 100 dollars a month. With the money I got from selling my stuff Around 4k I bought an old beat up 2005 Hyundai Accent for approximately 2.5k it has 130 thousand miles on it. Got about 1.5k left in the bank can pay rent for a long time with that money. Tons of people in my ward chipped in and are letting me mow their lawns and do yardwork for them after I get home from work. Working 16 hour days If you count school but Ive never felt more free.Assistant: Are you in the US? I dont think its legal for a parent to abandon you financially until you are 18, unless you emancipate. But Im not an attorney...Human: Yes I live in the US. Assistant: I would look up Child Protective Services in your state and make a phone call telling them exactly what you have written here. Edit: or go to your principal or guidance counselor at school and repeat everything you have shared. They may have a legal obligation to contact the authorities on your behalf. Heck, do both if it gets you assistance! I wish you the best. Human: I want to but I dont want to hurt my mother, shes really sensitive to this sort of thing and I wouldnt want to hurt her by ripping the family apart. Id rather just leave, Ive always been the worst of my three siblings academically and I kind of think I deserve it.  <response>: Woah. You do not deserve to be abandoned by your family for being the worst academically. Thats not a thing. And you would not be the one ripping your family apart. Thats what your father is doing. Youre a kid, and its your parents responsibility to take care of you.
