I’d say stay with your mom. I know things may get rough at times, but you need your family even though you think you don’t.
If you don’t mind me asking, why do you think you’ll do better getting out of her house.

I’d advising running away, but that probably isn’t a very smart idea. I suggest just staying with your mom till you can move out of your own free will at 18. I know it will be tough, but if you have lasted this long, I am sure you can last till then.

Well all my mom does is stress me out about everything, if i go to the other place (my friends house) i know that i will continue to go to school and actually have food in the house to eat. over there i actully get treated like a human instead of a dog. and ive only live with my mom for 3 years.

Make the best of being at home. Go to your friends house for dinner. Where did you live before?

Your only sixteen, you don’t eve know what life is all about.
Your age is the worst age to be, yet it should be the happiest for you.
I know it will be very hard to do,but try to be extra nice to your mother, always
walk around with a smile, and try to do extra things to help out your mother,
belive me, after one week, your whole life will change for the better.
Remember, in two years,you will be on your own, you will have to pay your own
rent, telphone, clothes,laundry,eletrical bills,car, car expences, and if you turn away from your mother who loves you with all her heart and takes care of you,who will you turn to for all you get now.
