The only thing you could do is go to the police. They would help you find a place that would be able to help you. Your other problem would be your sisters. You may not be able to stay together. However, you would be somewhere that you could focus on getting a good education and turn your life into something good.

You already have the right attitude. You see what is going on around you and you know that you don't want that life. That is a very good start. I suggest perhaps seeking some outside help - police, school guidence counselor or a teacher you trust. Just realize that you are above all that is happening in your family. It is possible to get through this kind of life and come out on top. Many have done it. Not to say it will be easy, but I think you already know that. Good luck. I think you are on the right path.

I don't think you will turn out like your family because you already see how they have screwed up their lives and yours. Have you tried talking to anyone? Like a counselor or a teacher at school, they could probably tell you where you could get some help or mentoring. Places like Boys & Girls Club or your local church that would give you and your sisters a positive place to go. Whatever you do, DON'T GIVE UP! You are on the right track and you know you want to do better for your life than what you have now. Always know that God is looking out for you and there are people in this world who care. Don't be afraid to ask for someone's help. Good luck to you and my prayers are with you.

You sound a little bit strange dear.I don't know whether to believe you or not.Whatever It is,I think that you are a fantastic person if it is true.You have chosen to live a different life.My advice is not do arguments with people in the house and keep away from drugs and sex at an so early age.Make yourself able to move away from here and do it as soon as you get 18.Or if you want to help your sisters take them with you.You sound like a real gentleman.

Sounds like you are own the right path. You know what not to do and that getting good grades and a decent education are your way out.
If you are looking to get away from them make a call to DHS, and ask for help. But I only recommend doing that if you are being forced to do things that you don't want to do other wise you will be split from you sisters and put into a foster home and you could have made it through this without all that.
I hope that things get better and I know they look grim but you are already doing what is necessary to get out, and you know that you don't want to be like any of them and that is the key to it all
Good luck

I grew up in a very crazy mixed up family. I am 52 and made it without being like them. From the beginning when I realized what was happening I swore that I would never be like them. I haven't thank God. I have had such strong will power in this that is all you have to do. Have the strength and you can do it. Just keep in mind that because they are srewed up it doesn't mean that you are destined to be the same. I know you can do it.

Do not think about your families mistakes, they made them not you. You need to be a beacon of light for your family show them that you can shine above the odds. If you are ever tempted to do drugs just think about your family and trust me you will never do it. You are working that's good. Make sure that you have something to do at all times because the devil finds use for idlers. Have fun, pat yourself on the back you are doing very well keep it up!! I AM VERY PROUD !!

Continue to be who you are.You seem to know who around you isn't acting with responsibility so that means you know what the right thing is to do.Even if you are the only one doing whats right,at least what you are doing will eventually lead you to a better lifestyle.You also will show your siblings a way of bettering themselves,sometimes when kids only see dysfunction,they come to believe that dysfunction is right.You doing what you know is right offers your siblings a chance to see the other side of life.If you can help just one person in your life,just one you have made God visible to the world.

I wouldnt worry about turning out like them if I were you, your obviously showing how much you dont wanna be like them right now, so you can be the one who directs your life. and theres lots of places you can call in these situations.
Good Luck
