You take that $100 a week and turn it into rent. Someone is always looking for a roomate if you can't afford a place on your own.

You should never talk that way to any child ... Especially one that probably looks up to you. I'm impressed that you admitted it. But, am very sad for your brother. He's probably feeling like this is his fault and is going to miss you. He's definitely going through more heart ache and emotions than you are. I'll pray for him.
For you, I was 17 when I moved out of my parents home. I worked 2 jobs and supported myself. I lived in a cozy apartment all by my lonesome and I did just fine. If you don't make enough money at your current job then I suggest you get a second job. One that you'll love to go to. It makes it much easier. Then I would get an apartment by yourself. Roommates are a horrible idea in my opinion. Get a filing cabinet. It makes it easier to pay your bills if they are in a folder and you can just reach in and grab them since they are in one place. It's much easier than looking through the stuff on the kitchen counter. :) You'll be fine. Just watch your temper and pay your bills on time. You shouldn't have many of them since you are just starting out. Oh... stay away from credit cards. I've never owned one in my life and I do just fine paying upfront for the things I need. Things you want should never come before necessities. Good luck to you and God bless!

parents don't make decisions like that just because................. Take this as a lesson. Go talk to some of your friends and see if they can put you up. And let them know that you are willing to pay rent. Most of the time friends will understand. Take this like a lesson. Maybe it's for the best. It will be hard for you at first but then you will get use too it. Then it will come as a breeze for you. You will like it, being on your on. You would be surprise what someone can do when there forced to do something. Who's to know maybe someday you mother will come to you for help. Good-Luck ! Spread those wings of yours and fly !

Since she has kicked you out, stop paying rent. Hold that money for the deposit on an apartment. Start looking. You might be able to find a roommate in the classifieds or a really cheap, really small apartment that you can afford. Check with your friends maybe one of them is ready to move out. You might also be able to stay with a friend for a week or so until you can find a place.
My guess is that your mother will probably cool off in a little while and you can try talking to her then.

Wow still at home with your mommy.. You need to get off the breast and get out anyway. Do you know what that says to single woman about you being 21 and still living with Mommy.. LOL . Your are an adult and you told a 10 yr old to F*** off.

Get the hell out while you can. If you are paying a $100 a week you can afford rent somewhere. I had the same problem except I was 16 when my mom kicked me out. She was abusive and I hated her. So I lived with my Grandma, who understood and didn't really like my mom either. You are 21 so it is about time you branched out on your own, pack your stuff and look in the paper for a place of your own. You will be much happier on your own. It is time to live your own life. Good luck!

The money you're paying to live at home could be your part of the rent if you had a roommate. If I were you, I would start looking.

All I can say is that your question just reminded me of my horrible experience of when I was kicked out. My mother was emotionally troubled and let her anger out on me. If you are out in the real world please take care. When I got kicked out, she changed the locks on me on a very cold January night... I am from a Muslim family...I was working nights as a waitress in a fancy restaurant which does not close till 2am. How else am I suppose to pay for education?

if you are 21, then get off your duff and find your own place to live. Your mother has fed and clothed and put up with you for 21 years. She has another child to raise. It is about time you figured out how to take care of yourself.
