Q: What will happen to me if my dad called cops on me for not listening/running off? I'm 15 and turn 16 soon. In Kentucky.
So the social services placed me with my dad yesterday, the last place I want to be. He's verbally abusive behind closed doors but hides it well and denies it when brought up. I do have a bit of history, I got molested again and was drunk and high when it happened last week. I have friends whose parent offered to take me and family friends who would take me but I assume it would be custodial interference. But if he calls the law on me, I see a way out. What would happen if I took that route? I turn 16 in early November. I've also been diagnosed with bipolar, depression, and schitzophrenia and been involuntarily hospitalized over suicidal tendencies.
A: If you don’t comply with the cops, you will either go to jail or a mental health facility.
