Daphne, AL asked in Family Law for Alabama

Q: I am 16 years old and I am dealing with emotional neglect at home and I don't know what to do about it.

the thing about it is that I've tried to talk to them about it specifically my dad and he doesn't seem to be doing anything about it. I've confided in my JROTC sergeant and my counselors but nothing seems to be done. my home situation has become unbearable, coming home doesn't feel like a relief from school. they won't allow me to have a job to fend for myself, they won't let me get my license, they won't allow me to have my phone for communication and they are taking every good relief I have, and throwing it out the door. I don't know what to do anymore, I'm tired of always going like this, it doesn't even look like things are changing for the positive. At this point, I'm ready to leave and go into foster care just to have a chance at a normal life.
