I am 17 years old, and my father tries to control every aspect of my life. I don't know what to do.?
I have 255 more days until I turn 18. Yes, I am counting down. I live with both of my parents, but my mom doesn't stand up for me when dad gets mad. He has never abused me physically or ually or anything, but I am starting to feel the strain of emotional abuse. He doesn't approve of my boyfriend, who is barely a year older than me (dad says he is too old for me.) I have had several major and minor repairs to be done to my car, and he expects repayment for nearly everything. I owe him all this money, but he only lets me work on friday, saturday, and sunday nights. Yesterday, he told me that since I am so irresponsible, he will be making all of my future decisions for me, and that me turning 18 means nothing to him. I used to try to explain to him that when I am an adult I can do whatever the hell I want to, but he just gets mad. I don't have the funds to get emancipated, the resources to run away, or the patience to sit back and do nothing. Help.
