Ok well a few nights ago we had family over and some friends as well. My stepdad is always rude to them, he puts them down or just ignores them completely.. Well the other night things got out of hand, first off he was giving my 5 yearold little sister alcohol while she was on vikadin for her fractured foot.. later on the night it kept getting worse, and near about midnight he got so pissed off and was about an inch away from beating all of us up. He was drunk that night, but he acts the same even when he's sober, and that scares me so much, what if one night he completely loses it and gets the gun we have in our house and shoots us.. I am terrified to be around him, I dont feel safe in this house anymore and I dont when i'm at other familys houses because their allowing my stepdad to be on the property, and I'm scared to be anywhere near him... I dont know what I should do, and I'm not sure if i can move out legally yet because I'm only 16, and i'm kinda afraid to get a teachers advice from my school cause police can end up being involved and things can escalate even more... Then lastnight things got out of hand again with him, and mom is doing nothing about it, so he's going to be staying, and i'm so scared to be here.. I want to try move out for sure when I turn 17(I heard from some people that I can move out without consent when I'm 17 but I'm not sure), but thats 4 months away.. How can I make it through these 4 months until my 17 birthday so I can get out of here?? So what is the legal age to move out of your parents house without consent??? And if I can not move out now, will I be able to move out without parents consent when I turn 17??
