My parents are married and everything. My mom just chooses not to live with us (she has four children) and live somewhere else and i'm therefore stuck having to care for my sisters. My dad thinks this is all normal, that it's my responsibility to "serve" my family. I think they're just using me. The scary thing is it's my last year of high school this year. I have completely missed out on any...life opportunities, SKILLS, having friends, you know, getting a job. I'll be so lost if i do become independent which i won't if i continue living here. My dad has almost psychotic plans for me. He says I'll go to some free college he found in kentucky and be doctor. He said he's going to move there (to kentucky) with me and I'll have to go home and serve my family during any spring breaks, winter breaks, holidays, etc. I know it sounds pathetic and ridiculous, but he's ruined my sister's life already and i'm next on line. I can totally see it happening. I have no support or resources, except for my aunt and uncle but my dad has stopped letting me see them ever since i told him i didn't want to follow his plans and be a doctor.
I don't have a licence, therefore i can't get a job or a license or friends and that's how he has managed to be in control of me this far. I've seen the illinois emancipation thing and it says you have to prove financial responsibility. Well, i've never had a job so....how can i solve that? I can't get a job because i was never able (because he never let me) to get a licence because i was had a car. Now it's too late, it seems. But i want to live with my aunt and uncle and continue school where they live. The only problem they said was my high school transcript. They said my dad would be the only one who could get it but since he's opposed to me living my own life, he won't let me. Do i need his permission to get ahold of it, in the first place? School starts right now, in August, but like i said i don't want to go to school here. I'll be seventeen in four months. That is way too long. Also, I'll have to stay at home one more year AFTER i graduate from high school, caring for my little sisters, BEFORE i turn 18. And no, i don't want to sue my dad or whatever, because i don't want to prolong living with him. He makes my life miserable. I JUST WANT TO MOVE IN WITH MY AUNT AND UNCLE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, THAT IS, BEFORE SCHOOL STARTS (the LEGAL, and right, and FASTEST WAY POSSIBLE). I want to move in with them, but i don't know about my transcript...Any help?
