Goodness, you are in quite a jam. I will say prayers for you. Always remember to go to the Lord when in need. It is not because of righteousness that there are problems in the world, but because of a lack of it.

When I was a teen my older sister moved away. My folks were good providers but we never really talked about what was going on in my life. All I had to go on was the example of those around me. It was the 60.s and those examples weren't so great. I really needed my sister, but she was at the all important college. How much better might my life have been had she stayed close I will never know. I could not blame her. I could only wish.

Who does your sister and brother have to confide in? It's the 2000's now and good examples seem farther and farther between, especially with parents like you say you have. Your siblings need you more than any of you can even guess. If you could all move in with your grandpa, that would be ideal. If he is willing, and you all will help with his needs, as he helps you with yours, it would be the best for all of you.

Your sister is in the worst position. She is far too young to be setting up house with some guy she met. If you can keep her with you, you will be doing her and her baby the greatest thing ever. This age, for all of you, is a crossroad in life. If she ends up with a bad guy it will affect you all adversely for a very long time to come. Not to mention your new nephew or niece.

You are so young yourself though. This is too much burden for you so let you Grandpa help all he can. Wherever you all do end up be sure to join a church there. A church family can give you much needed comfort, friendship, and guidance. If the first one does not suit you try another, and another. You are sure to find one that inspires you.

But you can just do what you can do. Be kind to yourself, come what may. Peace comes in knowing we are doing the best we can with what God has given us to work with.
My prayers are with you.

If your grandparents will care for you all, that would be wonder ful. You are all so young and have parents who aren't really parents. You do need all the support you can get. I am amazed that you all have escaped the system so far. And maybe you would have been better off in foster care, who knows. Sometimes the people are wonderful,but sometimes they are not.
Talk to your grandparents to see how much and how many of you they can take on. Even your sis and the baby would be better off with gramps and granny, but they may not be strong enough. I will pray for you all and wish you good luck!!!

I admire that you care about your syblings enough to think about them before you make decisions. First of all. . . If your sister is pregnant by her boyfriend then it may be best that she does stay with him, so that they can work on becoming a family for the new arrival. From the information you gave, I think it would be best if you did go to your Grandparents house, and take your little brother with you. Whether you decide to live with your grandparents long term is completely up to you, but either way it would be good to have supportive family close by to help share the responsibility of your brother.This way you won't have to give up your education, which is something you'll need to get anywhere in this life.

Wow that is deep....my heart goes out to you. Listen, you are young and it seems like you have a good head on our shoulders. You seem responsible particularly not wanting to leave your siblings behind. The best thing for you is to go to grandmoms try to insist that your sister come with you. Once they are settled get your self together get your grades up especially if you want to attend college. If by chance your sister does not choose to go with you ......that would be a hard decision to leave her behind.....reporting your parents which you should do more realistically if you do you already know the outcome......I wish you luck

maybe all three of you guys move in with your grandparents...and then maybe when you get to be 18 find a job and a year or two later find a place for yourself?
and let your grandparents get custody for you guys?...

as hard as it will be, contact child protective services, nothing can LEGALLY change to protect your siblings until the law gets involved. good luck to you!
