<prompt> Human: Hello!Short backstory: my parentswell mom really basically adhere to every Asian stereotype out there. My moms emotional maturity is pretty much that of a preteen girl spiked on hormones so you know where this is going. So basically my mom continouslly threatens that she wont pay for my tuition and that shes going to kick me out of the house as soon as I turn 18. Im pretty much the most mild mannered sheltered and awkward asian boy I know. I have no idea what to do once I get kicked out. Ive already applied to some schools for college. However, my income is high-middle class so I dont usually qualify for any insane need based scholarships or financial aid of that sort. My parents have pretty much held that theyre not going to pay for my tuition over my head, and if theyre going to go through with outing me at 18, then they sure as hell arent gonna pay for college.So I have 2 dilemmas:1. I will turn 18 in March; there will be like 3 months until I actually graduate from high school. I also have no where to turn to and I heavily doubt that any of my friends would let me crash with them for that long.2. I have no idea how I will pay tuition. I wont qualify for any of the need based stuff, and my parents arent going to use any of their income on paying tuition. I dont see how Ill be able to pay of at least 80k in debt...I have basically no savings either, as any birthday money or we gift money went straight to my parents bank accounts. I have maybe like 300 cash max.  <response>: Actually, sounds like your parents are the near antithesis of the stereotypical asian stereotypes. Asian Stereotype 1 - Children live with their parents until they marry. Or at least, until they have a job good enough to afford rent and expenses, but even then, usually until they are married. Asian Stereotype 2 - They will pay ANYTHING if they think it will help their kid succeed. Extra classes, college, private tutors, anything. Sounds like your parents are more 1. Raging narcissists and 2. unaware that in some states, it is required that they support you until you finish high school, 18 or not. You dont say what state you are in, but heres an example from Ohio. Look up the law for your state, so you are prepared when your parents tell you to get out. You can simply show them the law on this matter, say you are required to stay, and if any trouble, call a policeman to educate your parents on the subject. If it is NOT the law in your state, Whatever you do, finish high school. Dont be shy about telling your teachers, school counselor, etc what has happened. Let them know that your parents want to kick you out the MINUTE you hit 18. Schools have seen this shit before, especially in states where there is no finish high school law. I bet you anything they have either resources or ideas. Keep on them, they are required to support you in finishing school however way they can. Dont...and I mean DONT, EVER say I dont want to bother youthem... and just be quiet about your problems. THAT is Stereotypical Asian. You fight for what you need. Legally, that is. Hard, fast, and strong. Keep on people and dont be like I dont wanna bother them. Thatll make sure you will continue to be homeless once you are out. Keep all your important documents on your body at all times. I do mean on your body. Get an under shirt pouch thingie to keep your money and ID and birth cert and stuff in. Never ever take them off, even take it into the shower stall with you. Homeless people get stuff stolen from them all the time. Best to never have that stolen. Hope this info helps you prepare and fight for the rights you will have to fight for when you turn 18.
