Can I move in with my boyfriend's family if I'm being abused?
I’m 17, working, have a loving and caring boyfriend. My step-dad treats me like I’m a dog. He emotionally and verbally abuses me. Since hes been around I’ve developed migranes and a stomach ulcer. I have panic attacks and I’m now losing weight. I currently weight 105lbs by my doctors scale. I have been offered to stay in the spare room at my boyfriends grandparents house. Can I do this without being called a runaway? If not, can I get emancipated without my parents knowing? One way or another I need to get out of here for my own safety. Any advise is greatly appreaciated.
You would be considered as a runaway, at 17. Have you talked to your mother about this? If so, and she did nothing, then I would call social services…I don’t know where you live, but, there is someone that is in charge of young people, they will look into the situation, and perhaps put you in a fostor home. This sounds scarry, but, the other sounds worse. I would hope that your mother would be able to put a stop to it, but, some can’t or won’t, and you don’t want your life ruined. If you can’t find the number for social services you can always call or go by the police station, and ask for their help and advice. They are there to protect you.

Dear Heavenly Father, I pray that you will intervene in this situation, and bring the change that is needed, protect this young girl Lord, she does not deserve this kind of treatment, make a way, where there might not be a way, and bring healing to her, bring her to a place of safety, Amen.

I’ve talked to her. Shes to dumb, and shes afraid to be alone if my step-dad gets put in prison. I’m already in trouble with the court for missing to many days of school for being sick with ulcer flare ups and migranes. i want to be emancipated butmy mom won’t let me. Can I do it with out her knowing?
By the way, I live in Southeast Texas if that will help with knowing what the laws are. Also, Thank you very much silverwings for the advice and prayer. I’ll look into it.
NO IF YOU ARE GETING ABUSED YOU NEED TO DUMP HIM. YOU ARE A PRTTY WOMAN YOU DONT KNEE THIS AT ALL.THERE IS A LOT’S OF GUYS OUT THERE WILL TREAT YOU BETTTER. I KNOW I BEN THERE.& I DONT LIKE BEEN HIT ON. SO YOUR BEST THING TO DO GO TO THE POLICE.OR I CAN CALL MY DAD HE IS A POLICE MAN.BUT HE NEED TO STOP. BY REBECCA CENA.JOHN CENA GRILFRIEND.
