If you are being seriously insulted and abused, maybe talk to the police, or a psychologist.
You can also ask at your school to talk to someone.
Don't be scared, they wont tell it to your parents if you don't want to.
I hope they find a solution for you.

Take a breath. I am in my 20's now and can totally relate. I grew up in an abusive home w/ drugs and verbal abuse and neglect. But there is hope. Hang in there and don't turn to the dark side. Now I am a mother of 2 and I give my children everything I didn't have. YOU are doing a great job with your extracurricular activities. You should stay a little busy so you don't have so much time to think. You'll be 18 in no time. I didn't get my license until I was 18 b/c my mom didn't want to teach me. Here is some great advice...Trust Jesus. He can help you overcome.

I am very sorry to hear that. You should talk to a teacher at school or some other adult, maybe relative. There are many services that can help you and take care of you. You should not be exposed to your parents' drug addictions and the results of it.
Can you go and live with some relative until you graduate from your high school? In a very bad case, you can get emancipated from your parents but then you will have to get a job or find a way to support yourself.
I hope you will go to college because it is really important to get education. You can always get financial aid from the government and take some loans. You will pay back when you graduate but then you will make your life better for yourself because you don't have to end up like your parents.

well this is hard, i know how that can be, and TRUST me, people on drugs are not able to reason. You can't spend your whole life wondering how you can be better because look how great you are right now and you're only 16! you have so many accomplishments and if they can't see it, they should be VERY ashamed. You just gotta stay strong and keep up the good work because if you do, you will get so far in life and you can thank yourself, not them, that will feel soooo good!
good luck sweetie!

aww bless you. sounds like your having a hard time. i think you should ring childline on 0800 1111. your parents are treating you badly and you need help from a proffesional. if you dont want to do this sit your parents down and explain to them all this that you have written on here. it may be hard to tell them this but they need to know. they are treating you so badly and you do not deserve this. it sounds like your a good girl and do alot and your parents dont appericate this.
i really hope you get this sorted out.
good luck hunni

Wow I am sorry to hear that your parents are not behind you in what your doing in school and such. Do you have any grandparents or someone else you can stay with since they seem to not want to stand up and be parents???
