So, it's been a while, hasn't it?
I've been busting my ass lately, recently got my old job back because the place re-opened. Anywho, I'm a dishwasher right? I stand on my feet for 5 hours a day, wash other people's stuff and get paid for it. It's not anything to brag about, but it's work. Saving up for when I leave high-school. Anyways, my parents are a different story. Both are unemployed, we live in a trailer, and I do everything I can to distance myself from my life at home. 90% of the time, I'm at my uncle's house. Mainly because the people there actually care about me. My uncle is more of a father figure than anyone I know in my life, my stepdad tries his best, but has always been sort of a richard to me, and my mom only had me because she wanted my biological father to stay (surprise, I haven't seen him since I was like 4.) Clearly, it didn't work out. So now, my mom could really give half a stuff about me. All she cares about is getting money from my biological father (which is her primary source of income) and I don't see a loving dime of it.
Now this isn't the problem, but she demands 20$ a week from me because somehow, inadvertently, I "screwed" her over. Apparently she says that by having a job, the state can take away all of her benefits she receives. Again, I don't know how any of this is my problem, or how true it is that her insurance can be taken away because I'm working an actual job. I tried to defend myself and say, "I work for my money, and I'm trying to save it up." And the retort is always "Whatever, I'm not doing anything for you anymore." (like she does anyways) I tried telling her that I can always move out, and whenever the subject itself is brought up, a stuffstorm ensues. Like seriously, it's not my fault you're able to go out of your way to fake a loving disability but yet too lazy to get a loving job and pull your stuff together.
What do I do forums? I have like another year and a half before I can actually move out. Do I deal with this stuff for that long, or just leave?
