moving out of an abusive home (1 Viewer)

[izzy90]

is there some sort of refuge someone can take for a little while?

 

[SpaceHitler]

yes there are
im not sure where but have a search for womens homes or refuges maybe

 

[Riproot]

do you even know what emancipation is? she's 20, mate.

No.
But doesn't she need to prove that she is separate from them to get benefits and shiz?

 

[Ivorytw]

yeah riproot is right, you're still considered dependent until you are 22 unless you have declared independence (ie done the whole 18g in 12 months etc).

Defer uni

Get more work

Move out

Don't worry

or get some blackmail worthy stuff on them and blackmail them and then manipulate them further through fear and rule the house with an iron fist

sad thread

unless in self defense physical abuse is a criminal offence (iirc)
you could always go down that road

some of those might be useful should you decide to take that path

^probably unrealistic but you get the idea
what they're doing is wrong and they need to realise it

sadly they don't realise it and even if they do, they dont care to show it, they see it as a way of discipline.

thanks for all input guys =), but at the moment im going to see if i can get accomodation in university or some friends place.

 

[Lolsmith]

is uni accommodation super spenno

you can get a shared place (which is probably 100000x better than where you're at) for <$200 a week

also I'm assuming you're an asian female so your opportunities are literally endless
