Even though it will really suck, stay at home, finish high school, save up your $ because when you are out on your own, you're going to wish you had more $ than you do, make some wise choices about your future, and try to stay low-key until you get out of there. This is probably not the advice you want, and I'm sorry, but you will truly be better off if you do it this way, unless there is some kind of abuse going on. When I was that age I wanted out too, but leaving before you finish school could seriously affect the rest of your life, even though there is such a short period of time before you graduate. Just try to get through this time by staying out of the way, don't make waves, and use it wisely to decide where you truly want to be after high school; living, working, going to college, etc. Best wishes

First thing you need to ask yourself is are you making enough that you will be financially stable if you move out on your own? Can you live comfortably and still have money incase something unexpected comes up (such as car problems, you getting ill and needing prescription meds?) It may be best for you to just try and work things out with your parents - I know its easier said than done but in the long run it's probably what's best for everyone involved

Talk to your guidance counselor at school. Explain your situation. You really need to go to college because most jobs teenagers have will not pay the rent, transportation and utilities. Hang in there till graduation. Ask your counselor to help you find scholarships, grants, and any type of financial aid to go to college. After graduation if you really want to move out, try to find a roommate to help with expenses, or maybe stay with a friend's family and try to pay them room and board. Good Luck.
