I'm sick and tired of my family.

Just let me explain..
My Brother is getting married, and I respect him. If His girlfriend asks me a glass of water, I'll give her a glass of water. But to the others (my mother and my sister), Its like Im a slave of him and his girlfriend. My mother says, that I will live with them, and they will make me their slave, telling me to do this and that.. Now what I feel is.. That they are not trying to make me their slave. In fact, my mom and my sis are making me their slave. They tell me to do this and that.. Its freakin annoying. My dad doesn't give a damn about it.
Im so f***ing tired of them.

I'm finishing my 8th Grade (giving my finals atm.)
When I finish my A Levels, I plan on moving to South Australia for good. Staying away from my family, atleast I'll get a piece of my mind. I need tips on.. urm i dont know..
Tips on, RUNNING AWAY FROM MY FAMILY!

^Agreed. But do you really think running away is necessary ? I've gone through the same thing, and after a while I told my mom that I wasn't her slave and she has two arms and legs of her own. I mean , won't they just come find you anyway ? _unsure.gif

If I were ever going to run away, I would contact a friend that lives pretty far away from my family and ask if I could stay with them (in exchange for helping to pay some of the bills or whatever).

Do you have a job? 'Cause money will help you with this whole running away thing.

Before you decide to leave for sure, talk to your family and let them know how you feel. Most people do a lot for the people they love and are willing to help them... you've been willing to help your family so maybe they'd be willing to help you by giving you some respect.

... lol your mom said that you're moving with them? That's a little too cold for a parent to say.


You're too young to just run away. Unless of course you plan to live in the streets.. but keep in mind, there's vicious people out there who will target you to do God knows what.


So all I can really say is... drop the idea of running away, graduate highschool and college and finally you can live the rest of your life, healthy, wealthy, and away from a parent who tells their child they're gonna live with their sibling for whatever the reason is.

My Mom is the one who thinks shes right and everyone is wrong. Besides, It'll take some time till they can actually know stuff about me.
Running away I mean as telling my parents "ohh im going to Australia on a study permit" and then forgetting them completely (not exactly)

No, I dont have a job. Can't get a job till I do my A Levels.
Talking to my parents? Yeah right. Like they'll understand. And If I tell them Im leaving forever, my mom will end up crying which I hate..

*cough* You didn't get my point.
My Mom says that when she dies, I'll have to move in with my Brother, or Sister maybe.
But I dont wanna take any chances. So ASAP I finish my A Levels, Im doing a study permit to Australia.

Tbh, I honestly don't see the reason to run away. You need to stand up to your mom, and tell her to get up off her ass and do some things on her own for once. Just because you're having one problem with a parent shouldn't mean that need to run away. Everyone has problems with their parents at some point, you're probably in the I hate my parents stage. I'm sure if you just stand up to your mom, it'll pretty much shock her and probably make her realize something. I think you would regret running away. You say you're in the eighth grade, and you have a little while more to go, not going to school will be a bad mistake unless you get your GED, which might make things a little bit easier. But just saying, there are people who have way worse parent problems than that, and I think you can resolve that issue if you put forth the effort.



Agreed. I don't let my mom run me for nothing. You're only in 8th grade, running away tbh wont do you any good. If your mom does not control how you sh-t or piss. Then you should be able to tell her , no. I argue with my mother back and forth all day everyday about any little thing, especially when she tries to tell me what i'm going to do and when. If you don't want to move in with your brother or sister when your mother passes away. If you are still young when it happens (god forbid) then you've got no choice. If you're around 16 when it does happen, get emancipated and do you. You gotta be smart about it.

Running is the most unmature thing you can do. And an immaturre kid can't survive without his family.

And by immature I dont mean like an immature idiot i mean, you havent matured.

And your finishing the 8th grade? You want to run away at 13? Atleast wait till your 16 and you can drive?!

Your problem isn't bad enough for you to run away over. Other kids have parents that beat them, drink excessively, sleep around, etc. So, your family members keep asking you to do things for them. Big deal. Have you ever thought about everything they've done for you in the past?

I mean, I don't see what's wrong with moving away after you take your A Levels because I believe you have to be sixteen or eighteen for that, right? A lot of people leave home after that. But I don't think you should cut off contact with them completely. Even if they can be asses, they would have kicked you to the curb by now if they didn't care about you.

talk to your parents and tell them how you feel like you have to do everything for them. They have arms and legs they should use them too, they should be lucky that they can use them in the first place.
Your only in 8th grade you don't need to be running around for them constantly 24/7 and they should know that. So just try talking to them and tell them how you feel...if they give you a hard time threaten that you will run away.

Been there done that. It was by far the biggest mistake I have ever made. I ran away from home when I was 10, just for a bit of fun.

what you're describing happens in almost every family.

and "running away" is no solution; you become a burden on anyone who has to support you... and i'm guessing at thirteen you will need financial support, unless you're a kin to bill gates.

"moving out" is the solution. i did more than a year ago, and believe me, due to a problem MUCH more significant than yours. but you need moolah for an apartment and food and electricity and phone and the list goes on and on and on.

do yourself a favour, stay home & talk to the family. you can't run away from every insignificant problem that is thrown your way.

I agree with most everyone. You are being immature. Running away because your parents ask you to get them a glass of water or do the dishes when you're done with your homework isn't that big of a deal. I think you are over-reacting. Just talk to them, if that's too hard write them a note or something. Just don't run away.
