Can a parent who kicked you out take you back in if...?

Question

I'm an underage minor who was kicked out by her mom about 9-10 months ago. Reason I got kicked out was because my mother and father were in the middle of a divorce, and for some reason I was always in the middle [maybe because I'm older, I'm not sure] My mom managed to get my dad kicked out on false claims and assumptions that she knows are lies. Thats when things got really bad. It's hard for me to function in school when I'm stressed, so I would stay and do after school activities so i wouldn't have to go home for awhile. Soon she said why didnt you just go away. It turned very physical. She would try and take my money, my sisters were against me and physical towards me like my mom was. So I stayed away although. Then she kicked me out saying i was a disturbance to the family. So i'm with my dad now but like, he's not very...helpful. In fact I'm pretty much afraid of him. So one day when it got too much, i left home. I'm going back tomorrow though. But it turns out he isn't looking for me and my mom is. My mom has done some things to me in the past, and I'm afraid of her. And I'm also afraid of my dad.

- told you all this so my questions would make more sense. Can my mom who got me kicked out under false claims [like she did my dad] Re-take me back in? Who should I try to stay with? I really don't want to stay with either. Can I get a Friend's family to legally take me in if they are intrested?

[sorry about the length]

Answer 1

Yes, babe, a family member or adult friend of the family can get a custodianship, or guardianship, and can file a paper of indigence, meaning no money, to get the filing fee waived. If there is someone specific you have in mind that you would like to live with, together you two call Children's Services, and a caseworker will help you with all this paperwork.  

Answer 2

If you are still in school it sounds like you need to stay there....no matter what. If you cant get along with your Mom or Dad there needs to be some type of talk. You need to talk to one of them. Parents ( no matter how we as teen or children think) love their offspring with no reserve, sometimes to the point of enabling them to do wrong things. Best thing for you to do is talk to your Mom and Dad one person to one person and be honest ( BUT RESPECTFULL!!!!!!!!!!) and let them both know how you feel and that you still love them both and are willing to find out how you can be the first person in this family unit to seek a therapist.
