Hello guys my mother recently found out I got mmy septum pierced, this is on top of her fndng out last year that I do not believe in god; I am a overtly artsy perosnn and my parents pretty conservative. Anyway I think being disowned is for the best for me and them, so I was just wondering a couple of things:

1) what do I have the right to in their house ? (passport, green card, social, etc)

2) I need to pay my school tution how can I go about raising money for it

You have rights to your legal documents and anything you purchased. Passport, Birth Certificate, Social Security Number, etc. That's it. If you're 18+ they could give you a 11x8 envelope, a trash bag for your stuff, the middle finger, and never have to explain themselves to authorities.



Laying this out simply for what happens after you walk down the sidewalk:



Day 1-3: You will have to find a job and an apartment for <$350 month. Most likely you will be crashing on a couch till then.



Day 4-90: You will work for minimum wage, surviving on chicken, rice and potatoes because you're saving up for community college.



Next 4-5 Years: Most likely jumping between a couple jobs and trying to figure out how to transfer your CC credits to a university. So you can get a degree that will help you with a practicle and happy life.

Well, I hope you don't feel bad if that is the case. I think you're alright, you do seem to have a sense of independence. If they are disowning you just for being different, go ahead and find you own way, try not to take it so personal. Those who disown others over differences are not those who you should be concerned with.. Peace! ^^

Really the best advice would don t do anything you might come to regret later, sure you might disagree with them on things right now but that does not mean later you will not want those relationships to be solid. Life is about people.



And I think if you wanted to make this into a college easy you would have to be willing to do a lot more work than usual mostly in soul searching and dialogue between both parties.

part of being a teenager is feeling like youre going to be disowned on a regular basis :p (i was there, had my 1st baby at 17) but so long as you're acting like an adult you have a right to your own opinions and body - they know this too- they will trust that you will not F** up your life and appreciate you more as a person regardless of their views AS LONG AS you talk/act like you are an adult. It gets ALOT harder once you start moving out so unless they are beating you then stay home, watch your mouth and be respectful, get your schooling done and you'll be out before you know it

You have a right to all of those things you listed and I would try to get a hold of them ASAP. Get your birth certificate too.



As far as tuition... get a job and work as many hours as you can, basically. Data entry pays pretty well. You can lower your load by becomming a part-time student. Talk to your financial aid office to see what kind of help they can give you, or perhaps they can point you towards scholarships. You can take out loans, but debt is no fun so try to minimize debt. You could transfer to a cheaper school too- community colleges are underrated! Good luck.

It is a lot harder out there than you imagine. It is almost impossible to start from scratch without an education and support yourself. Everything has gotten very expensive, I strongly suggest you kiss backside until you are capable of being on your own. Any job you get will cost you as much to get there as you will earn. Anything given to you as a present is yours as is your personal papers. Anything you bought with money given to you is yours as are your clothes. If you have a bank account of your own or if it is in an either you or a parents name, you can withdraw from it. If it is in two names you both have to sign to take money out.

If your over the age of 18 then theres nothing you can do your a legal adult your mother has the right to kick you out even if your family but if your under the age of 18 its against the law for her to and you would need to tell someone like school counsler or a teacher. and and to pay for your school tution you can get a job or get a loan from the bank or borrow money from a friend and pay it back or you can try to get financial aid so they can pay for your college but you would have to pay it back at the very end of your college course like gradguation.

Dear Obscureusername,



I do not think that there is even one person who has answered your question on your current relationship with your parents who believes that any part of your story is funny.



It appears from your attitude and your actions that there is no way that you will be able to live a good life with your way of thinking and acting.



Advice: Change completely. You need to learn to think well and become able to live with other people in the coming month, decade, and up to your final days. If you do not know what that means, then you need to reach out to a good adult who you know or who works at a hospital. Show that person your message and be ready to answer questions from adults you already know and from adults at a hospital who may be able to help you in determining what your situation is.



Good luck.

Getting disown is a bad idea. u will lose everything except birth documents of crap other then that u get nothing in their house. if they are paying your tuition stay and get it paid. stop this nonsense. u will end up losing everything and be homeless

You need to pay tuition? Get that thing called a J-O-B. it will help you pay for college. What do you have rights too in their own home? Nothing. 0

Would this make for a good college essay? what do you think?

I know at 18 they dont owe me anything I understand that I just want to know what I have the legal rights to, what already belongs to me in that home. like I mentioned above

if they are rich and likely to leave you $$ or stocks or property, then suck up to them and ditch the piercing. if they are poor and likely to leave you jack s### nothing, then what does it matter?

if you are under 18 they have a legal obligation to provide the minimal: ford, clothing, shelter, medical care..... that's it...



if you are over 18 you have NO "RIGHTS" to any thing of theirs.... you have chsen your "life style"...... LIVE WITH IT...... you have said to hell with them... you have no right to expect anything from them....
