ok..so im seventeen and me and my mom grounded me. For three whole weeks i couldnt use anything that plugged into the walls or use the trampoline or even play freakin monopoly BECAUSE it was fun!? ...so one day i got tired of it and just start watching t.v ( plugs into the wall). mama said i was gonna "regret this" and stopped talking to me at all. when i asked her a question she totally ignored me for a almost a week..she Only communicated to me through letters! one day she left a note on my bed that told me i had to ride the bus from now on ( im a car rider)...it made me mad that she kept telling me stuff thro' notes so i left HER a note that said ""i was going to a friends house . be back tomorrow afternoon."" i also called her two times while i was gone, she answered once. ok, so im back home and everythings NORMAL except im still watchin t.v and using the computer and she says soon she'll have to take desperate measures....CAN I GET KICKED OUT? WHAT CAN SHE DO TO ME??!??

wow... sounds like an extremeley dysfunctional family... god thought i had it bad.. okay heres what you do. walk up to her and ask her if she loves you. if yes, then ask if you can talk about this. tell her that shes way out of line.
...if she ignores you, make bruises on yourself, and report her to child protective services.

We had to go by the rules of the house whether we agreed with them or not. I was 21 and finally got up the nerve to tell them I would not be coming home that night. I moved out 3 months later, when you pay for the place yourself you can make the rules. NOW it really all depends on what you were grounded for and how you responded to her about it too. You should never disrespect your mom even if you think your right.

the worst scenario-She can call the police and state that she is unable to handle your behaviours,that she has exhausted everything that she can possibly do and still you are not responsive to changing for the positive and that she is emotionally,mentally and physically unable to go on-the police will then advise her to take you down to juvenile where through signing papers she is releasing you into their custody,relinguishing her parental rights.The police will not transport you for no crime has been committed or which they can arrest you,they can follow you and your mother though in case you get volatile or attempt to run then they can take you into their custody. Once you've been turned over to juvenile you'll be housed in juvenile temporarily for the Juvenile Dept will contact DFCS-Department of Families and Children Services-who will either place you with a foster family temporarily(if they can find a foster families by calling all those on their database that have ROOM in their house and are willing to take you on a temporary basis. Be aware though that teenagers esp those classified as incorrigible by the natural parent are the most difficult to place for all will expect defiant acting out behaviours. If no one can be found you will be placed in a for Children(17 still considered a child)Emergency Shelter which are always crowded ,understaffed and definitely NOT a nice place to be for will be in a large room with other kids your age-a lot of them tough,violent and punches often araen't seen because staff cannot have eyes everywhere and I did mention understaffed. No private rooms with TV-lucky if a Recreation Room with 1TV-definitely not HDTV or Premium channels.Personal Computer -not likely. I think just a couple of days in one of those,always having to be on guard,hungry and you'll be there-no choice-until a family is found or a treatment center has room. Your Mom can also call DFCS and turn you over to them without involving the police. I think you should examine yourself like why this conflict between yourself and your MOM for slthough sh eis your parent does NOT have a Legal Obligation to deal with anything and everything you put on her. To do as you want and NOT follow her rules, be defiant etc shows your lack of care for her for why else could you make such problems,cause her such stress and even put her in the position where she'll have to make such a heart-rending decision. You need to weigh NOT watching TV or using the computer against losing your Home.Support the Love of your MotherAll that you now take for granted for if she did not love then would not care how you are or how you'll be. Its a mothers responsibility to attempot all she can to have her child grow into a resposible, well adjusted adult and along the way of a child growing up discipline is a necessary tool that all CARING parents use..Now you know the rights that your mother has-she too has the right to be happy,to live without worry and stress,to live without conflict and strife and if you are the cause of extreme unhappiness to her then YES

Legally she has to care for you, room and board, until you 18. But I have a question, Are you sure she's not the 17 year old?
