well if ur too young togo into a foster home, then ur obv too young to b away from ur family,running away would cause future problems in ur life- it def wouldn’t b pleasant, my friend ran away wen she was 15 and became a heroin addictt …

if i were u i’d tlk to ur mum & dad to try & dissolve the situation, i mean there are other options…

LOL its what i’m studying to become :P a social worker in this situation would work with your parents & yourself as a mediator, if the social worker decided it was an unasfe situation they wud have the power to take you away n put u in a home

Dont b scared, and don’t yell, be mature and civilised and say

mum, dad i need to talk to you both, I can’t cope with the arguments you have and it’s making me not one to live here anymore. I love you both very much but if this keeps going on the way it has been I’m going to have to leave

Well it won’t hurt to try, what’s the worst that can happen- no more than what’s happening now.
If they see how mature you respond then mayb they’ll realise how stupide they’ve been acting and share whats really wrong with you
