ME
k dad no problem
*the first situation comes when my boyfriends sister lost her keys(she was my ride home) and we could not find them a whole hour before i had to be home.so i called my dad well in advance to let him know "hey dad im going to be late because ___ sister cannot find her keys".so he yells at me and says"walk your *** in this house after your curfew and you are punished for 2 weeks"....
immediatley my head is spinning because all that keeps repeating in my head is his words telling me to just call and let him know the situation..so im already confused at this point..but god came through for me within ten minutes of me having to be home..she found her car keys an was able to rush me home.
*the second situation was recently when i called a cab at 11:00 pm...two hours before my curfew so that i could reserve a cab for 12 am to go home.i called again t 11 45pm to double check on my cab and they confirmed.. so time went by and i dosed off to sleep..and with this cab company they are supposed to call your phone to let you know that they are down the street or outside...but guess what..no call and no show because i also had a couple friends who spend all their time outside look for a cab..no show and no call..so when i realized this it was 12 43am and i imediatly jumped up and ran uptairs to ask my boyfriends cousin to take me home..so she got mad because i woke her up so on the way there i could have made it because we left at 12 48 am and its only a 7-8 minute ride from his house to my house...but shes so mad she decides to stop at the gas station for nothing...she had almost a full tank of gas in her car..then she took her precious time..so anyway because she did that i did not make it home in time enough for my curfew and now i am punished for god knows how long..i will be 18 in like 4-5 months..i dont know if ican stick it out becuase my dad has been changing..he has been having really bad mood swings..and when u try 2 talk to him and reason he cuts u off and only he can be heard..i cant take it any more..today i tried to talk to him and he started saying things that made me realize that hes taking his anger and stress issues out on me.
He told me when i first got punished that i cant leave the hoouse until he told me to and if i was to leave theni should keep going...well im thinking about it...i will be 18 in march so i want to know whats the most trouble i can get in for leaving??
The reason why this sitation is so big to me is because when i was living with my mom i was kept away from the world and i was a prisoner and i wasnt heard out...so when my dad came to my rescue i thought everything was okay bcause with him i started discovering life and furthering my dreams in ducation and working but when he does things like what i typed above...i am confused and i feel like i right back where i started..i cannot be forced to stay in this house for any reeason becaue i feel no trraces of love and or a home..this house is messed up because my dad is and his wife are cheating on one another and step sister is bisexual(which i have no problem with cuz thats what she likes) and they have no belief in god...growing up with my mom the house was filled with gods love despite how she treated me and my brother behind closed doors.
I have places to go but even if i cant get in anyl egal trouble...i dont wanna burn any bridges...my back is up against the wall please help me.please.
