  1. I would run the heck outta there and go to the police station. hopefully they can set you up w/a womansshelter


  2. stay  with  friends

  3. Call social security.then call everyone you can to point you in the right financial direction.I beleive in a emergency they set you up in a hotel.Get on the phone now.You can start by calling your local police station non emergency and they can give you phone #'s.Just realize your going to need all the patience in the world and all the help out there that there is from friends  

  4. call cps, tell them this, right now. if your dad does anything really bad call the police.

    stay with a friend tonight and call your moms relatives in austrailia in the morning, pack up and move.

  5. there are shelters you could go to, would you not report him for hitting her, he deserves it your too young to move out but if you tell someone maybe at school a teacher or concealer they will help you.  

  6. try and get in contact with a womens shelter and see if they can help you. With you only being 16 it'll be hard to get a apartment or hotel depending on where you live. They should be able to find you a safe place to stay and assist you in finding something more permanent. DO NOT TELL YOUR FATHER WHAT YOU'RE DOING. if you need anything else get in touch with the police.

    Best Of Luck!

  7. i dont think u can get an apartment at ur age by yourself. if you really dont want to call the police, the best thing to do would be to keep working, stay over at a friends house for a while, the both of you, and contact ur mom's relatives in australia and ask if you can move and possibly live w/ them, and keep working so u can buy the plane tickets. and take your belongings our of the house little by little, especially ur passports and stuff like that first. or u can call child services and have them put you in guys in a foster home.

    I hope that things will get better for you guys. i truly do. may God bless you guys

  8. I read your other question.

    Now I would call your mothers relatives and catch a plain ride to Australia with your sister. Your father shouldn't be doing this to you. He's taking all his anger, pain and frustration out on you. Its not good and I'd get out.

    No you won't be able to get an apartment. You have to be 18 years or older. Sorry.

    Good luck and I hope you get out of this situation. :-)

  9. stay in a hotel and continue on with your regular life

    ask your moms relatives to buy you some tickets over there

    and tell them that you will pay them back

    get away from your father

  10. Try a hotel, tell the staff the situation your are in, and if take a photo of your dad and show it to them and say if you see him turn him away. then get hold of your mum's relatives and get out to aus. i'm sure they will help.  good luck and leave no trace of where you have gone, get out and do it soon. good luck. i feel for you. and i see no reason why you couldn't get an apartment.

    remember my previous answer!! CONTACT ME PLEASE!!

  11. Where are you located? You need to contact local authorities. Get out now!  

  12. Contact child protective services and ask them to help the two of you. You are old enough to maybe get emancipated and possibly get your sister to. DO you know your relatives in Australia at all? If you know them even through letters and messages ask them if they can help you at all.

    The chances of getting a apartment are slim to none unless you are emancipated

    Good Luck and all my support for you and your sister

  13. The only way you could live on your own at your age is to get emancipated. Do you really think you could take care of your sister and pay all the bills yourself? What about school? It would be a better idea to go to relatives.

    Contact family and get out of there. If you can't contact them, sort out somewhere else to stay for a while. I'm sure it would make your dad angrier that you have been gone already.

    Call someone who can help you immediately.

  14. GET OUTTA THERE NOW! that is a dangerous situation! u and ur sister go live with relatives and pay rent there.

  15. $3000 is enough to buy 2 plane tickets....call ur moms relatives and give them the money cause u cant buy plane tickets at 16 have them but the tickets and u go stay with them....then when u r 18 if u dont want to live in autrlia then take ur sis and come home....u can live in an apartment together until she is old enough to get her won place....ur a great big brother to protect her like that....and no i think u have to be 18 to buy an apartment

  16. You can apply with your school and the government to be a legal adult and guardian of your sister.  If you can't stay at a friends house together, go to a shelter.  There are lots of them around.  They will be able to provide you with a place to sleep, live, food and help you move forward.  They can provide you with information about where to go and what to do.  Do what is in yours and your sisters best interests.  You need to get out now.  Don't let this go on any further.  

    Good luck, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your sister.  Please help yourselves.  

  17. stay at a friends house... going to a hotel will drain the 3 grand in no time. but you have to get in touch with some sort of hot line or police. you should call your relatives in australia and have one of them come to you and agree to have you stay with them. you dont want to get in trouble trying to run away or anything because then if you get caught they can place you back at your hosue if your father convincest hem you are lieing. so def go to the police. good luck. and dotn tell him where your sister is if he gets home and flips.  

  18. Definitley get an appartment!! GET OUT and don't tell ur father don't let him know where u guys are,  

  19. Can you place a collect call to Australia to one of your moms relatives?

    I think the most important thing for you to do is find a safe place to go tonight, and make some calls in the morning and see if you can get some sort of assistance.  

  20. get a small apartment or efficience I don't know how to spell ,I don't know in what part you are but with that money you can rent here in florida ,but believe get out before your father get home ,just leave a note and that's it

  21. u wont be able to ge an apartment at your age yet, you have eunogh money to get an aparment (that depends where you live) but if your sister is old eunogh she can get an apartment and you can move in with her and help each other pay
