I am 17. I want to get out of here, yes i have thought it through. No I am not sure where i would go, but i know that i feel that anywhere is better than here. My question is, should i wait for my mom to leave and take me with her, which she has been talking about for YEARS. or i should i leave without her because she isnt going anywhere.
i would take the car, its not my car. could i be put in jail for theft? should i just walk? catch a bus?
how long would it take for the police to find me? Five months is too long to wait to be 18. I HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE. I CANT STAND IT ANYMORE. 17 years has been far too long to live with the both of them.
perhaps i am over-reacting but i really have no outlet for the way that i am feeling. my mother would never listen to me and my father sure as hell wouldnt. i love them, i do. but i cannot live with them.
i really need help.

if you only have 5 month until you are 18 you can wait. just keep your self busy with friends and activities so you are not home a lot. and what makes it so bad at home any way? if you are on your own you have to get a job, get a place to live, pay all your own bills, and be an adult. so just deal with what ever the prob. is and stay at home and i bet if you asked your mom to talk to you and tell her that it was serious she would listen. or try writing a letter to her.

Trust me, you don't want to be out on the streets, and if you take the car you would get into alot of trouble. Do you have a relative you could live with or a friend? I left home when I was 17, and it was the worst thing I could've done. I know you feel like you're trapped right now, but if you can just try to wait it out and make sure you have yourself situated as to where you can support yourself and make it on your own, you should just stay there. If you run away, there are to many things that could happen to you.

If yo urun away now, it might make your parent's situation worse. They could get into a fight over you, and that's not really the best thing. Wait until you're 18, then you should be of legal age to make your own decisions. If you're going to run, you better have a goal of where to go to.as for the car, it would be stealing. Why don't you sleepover at a friends place for a while, or live with one friend for say a week, stay at home for the weekend, then at another friend's for another week.
One thing else I want to point out - will if be safe for your mom if you leave her like that? Alone with your dad, I mean.

if you run away now .....it will make your parents feel that all the years they have taken care of you has been a failure......
wait 5 more months and then when you leave it will be on "good terms" otherwise...things will never be the same..
If you take the car ...it's theft.
tomorrow will hold a new meaning for you...and a better outlook.......don't jump to conculsions......mother will probably leave AFTER yout turn 18.....she doesn't want to break up your home as long as you are underage...no matter how bad things are.......so do yourself a favor and stay for now.
Find some extra work to do for neighbors by mowing their yards (especially the elderly) or cleaning garages,attics,gardens. Anything to keep your mind busy so you don't do something that you will regret......pray for guidance.......God bless

Wait until you are 18. If your mom has been talking about leaving for years and hasn't she probably won't.... so don't rely on her.
DEFINITELY DO NOT TAKE THEIR CAR!!! No kidding, my sister pulled that stunt and my parents called the cops and reported it stolen. Lucky for her she brought it back the next day....but if the car is not registered in your name it IS a crime, and if they report you missing the cops WILL be looking for you AND the car!
