Sounds like you could do with some help. Try Get Connected at www.getconnected.org.uk, or connexions-direct www.connexions-direct.com. Both have free helplines, and Connexions Direct have offices in most large towns where an advisor will help you draft your letter. They can help with your other problems too.
Also Parentlineplus will take a call from you because they are as much about teenagers as parents. Their helpline number is 0808 800 2222 and is 24 hour and free. They will help you talk through your problems and hopefully ways of improving communication with your family.
Hope this helps.

get the person in charge of the bursery to help you apeal, this always looks good and its hard to disagree with them. Also sort yourself out youneed to show them some willingness over improving your attendance. Talk to your College Counseller or a counseller show that you arre dealing with the issues.
Good Luck

i would get your student representative to go in with you. Most places have one either indepndant or part of the student union. You have to explain your situation, do not lie but be upfront. try and provide any evidence you have that may help you cause.

Explain your situation and tell them exactly why you could not make it to class. Be honest throughout and explain why you need to stay on in school. Good luck.

tell them a sob story, you aint lying about it either. you gotta stand up for your rights lady.... and plus you deserve it with the problems your having. fight them for your money.
alternatively try and get a weekend job for now.... if you can.
but then again you dont it to distract you from exam revision.
hope everything gets sorted :)
