hey kristen i dont think you should run away and where would you go? ur life mayb crazy but running away is not an option. Keep holding on, ur situation with ur parents and sister may improve. And mayb in the future u can use ur story to impact and inspire young women. There is still hope! I may not know you but i will pray for you and ur family.

If you have a passion or goal such as going into the medical field, I think you should do that. You have a condition but don't  tell yourself that ur not smart. You have to build up confidence and self worth, meaning you value yourself and u love yourself for who you are. And if your serious about the medical field you need to work hard in order to get there. Dont let you or anybody else tell you that u cannot do something or be somebody because the moment you agree to that, u bring down your self worth. Your a valuable young women and love the skin your in. My prays go to u and ur family.

Sincerely, Aubry

You can be watever you want to be. You just have to work hard to get there. And plz plz build up ur confidence by telling yourself that ur smart and you can do anything and accomplish watever goal you put ur mind to. And ignore the negative comments that people tell you, focus on the positive which is a very bright future ahead of you.

Sincerly, Aubry
And ur welcome, whenever you need help just post ur thoughts and i'll comment back. I'll pray for u.

If your parents are abusive to you, you can get help.  There are domestic violence hotlines that will help you to get out of the situation.  If you want, I can give you a phone number and/or website. 

I was in an abusive situation for 17 years.  I was able to get out of it after one particularly bad incident where my father hit me and I had very visible bruises.  My friend told a counselor at his school what had happened to him and the next day a social worker was there to help me.  I was able to get myself, as well as my mother and two younger brothers out of the situation.  My only regret is that we couldn't get out sooner.

I'm now in college, studying to be a lawyer.  Even though this is happening to you, you can still do whatever you want to.  If your concern is that you won't be able to pay for it, you can always take out loans.  I'm paying for this entirely myself and, although I have to pay it all off when I graduate, I'm taking out loans that enable me to get the education I want and deserve.

If you're really set on running away, there are places you can go.  At least where I live, there are places dedicated to keeping children and teenagers safe (safehavens, sort of).  They don't disclose your location to your parent and they allow you to get the help you deserve.  I can also get you in contact with one of these (in my area, at least.  I'm sure I could help you find one wherever you are as well.)

Hope this helps and good luck! Let me know if I can help.
