My Family Won't Stop

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to write to us here at the National Runaway Safeline. It sounds like you are living in a house that is not a good environment for you. We want you to know that you do have the right to make a report with Child Protective Services. Child Help USA is an information and referral line that can connect you with your local CPS abuse hotline. That number is 1-800-422-4453. If you ever felt like making a report or needed help, we are here to assist with that. We understand that making an abuse report can be intimidating so if you like we can call together to provide support.
It sounds like having a safe place that you can call your own would benefit you a lot right now. Have you considered talking to your parents again about making your sanctuary a reality? Talking to them again might let them know how serious you are. It is understandable that you would want to leave a place where you are not treated properly. We want you to know that you are not alone and you do not deserve to be treated this way. If you would like to talk more about your options you are always welcome to call us anytime 1-800-786-2929
Best wishes,
NRS

I'm 12 pretty much 13 in 3 months...regardless, my mom just now grabbed my neck and left a red mark. My brothers steal from me and my dad honestly has no ********s given to even do anything about it! A lot of other stuff happens too, like 2 days ago in the morning, my mom, grabbed me and yelled at me while still squeezing me. My parents walk all over me, they smoke and drink. They say that they will make my room a sanctuary, but I don't believe that. It gets worse, my brother, goes and unlocks the bathroom and uses it, while I'm showering or getting dressed. I honestly don't care for my family. I really have no love for them because of how they treat me. I wanna run away with someone at my school.
