That was very helpful, thank you. My parents talked (screamed) in person, and on phone call. The only messages I have is a simple 'stay the #### away' from my mother. My parents are careful, I guess. One of my neighbors saw it go down, so maybe that counts as someone witnessing It? He saw the tail end, at least.

My sister-in-law gets back in three days, so I guess I can ask her then. My brother is extremely intelligent and great with laws and stuff, too, but he's swamped with work right now and I don't want to bother him.

Do save the stay away message, it's not a lot, but if it comes to it you will seem more credible in your story for having it.
I tried to help a girl whose mom was abusive a while back, and I cannot tell you how valuable it is when the cops can look at the situation and believe your version of events is likely the accurate version.
That being said, helping an abused kid by giving them a safe place to crash when they run away, still illegal.
However, leaving because you were kicked out, not so illegal. It gets complicated. But you aren't a run away in a lot of places, and even the places that you are will be more lenient with you more often than not.
I really do wish you luck, and hope you really do take some time to research laws.

Hey so update, my parents cooled off enough that they're letting me choose to live in the apartment on their property or with my brother

I don't know what I should choose now, but I think I might go with the apartment thing. My brother is wanting to start a family soon and I don't want to stress him. Also it's 26 minutes closer to college than my bros place is

I'm a little freaked out though, so idk

This is progress. Good for you! Good luck!!

I'm glad your parents have cooled off some. If you are going to live with your brother you should get record of them giving you permission to.

Oooh true. Thanks a ton. I'm hoping this ends up a better arrangement for me.

I think it might hive me some distance without cutting off totallu

They haven't said yet if they'll still pay for stuff tho, so idk if I need to get more than an internship now

Some distance but still in walking distance from family dinners is a good way to work towards a better relationship.
As long as you are able to, be respectful and try not to fight with them; but don't let them mistreat you, if they are harassing you, walk away. Good luck. :)

I never talk back, I never even look them in the eyes when they're mad. They're terrifying heh. I think that's some of the problem, they just dig into me and I never get up the gall to talk back.

omg is this why the omegle chat ended

Hahaha yup

Also my dog peed everywhere...

I was hoping you would sign on hah

Are you home now?

@wimsyexpergefactor
Have you tried removing yourself from the situation when they are angry? Leaving the room or the house?

Ya I try to leave. They tell me to stop and sit back down or walk back towards them so they can male their point or finish. I'm at my brothers tonight. We met and talked at lunch and tomorrow I might go stay at the apartment/garage thing
