Don\'t leave until you at least graduate or get a GED. Underage without that you will find the world a rougher place to survive in. There is already enough rough stuff going on. Do what you can to bide your time, focusing on you, your goals. Vent your frustrations here. Remember your brothers and mother get hormonal too. Boys rage and get aggressive due to progesterone increases, Mother still has a monthly that may crash with yours.
Boyfriends are great, but emotionally there is still a lot of growth yet for you both For him he has the same going on in what your brothers do, wich also increases the libido and \" Superman\" feeling. They beleive they can do it all, and jump faster than thinking. It also makes them more passionate, being the \"Knight in Shining Armor.\". So please don\'t rely on just him. I know it has worked when two people have actually grown together through this age on to the next(I have 2 sisters, still married to HS sweethearts) But what often happens is your needs and goals change as you mature.
Please please, use protection if this is also a sexual relationship. Hormones can rage in reactions to stress, so unplanned pregnancies happen. This leaves you carrying an extra responsibility, when you need care yourself. Hugs I do care for you, your well being.
I actually tried looking up counseling / community centers in your area, that may offer you some confidential help. I seen 6 listed but 2 look promising. If nothing else they may help you graduate early. Eighteen and starting on your own will be hard, no lying here . But it has been done. Though going right to a community college is preferable since hiring with no extra training or schooling will limit your potential. But money can be made to get by in retail/restaurants as long as you are competent with computers.
Keyboarding is so important now, basic computer and excell are almost mandatory for a job you can move up in. So if you have not taken those, and still have time ask your school councilor to switch some electives around so that you have those. To help you hit the ground running. This goes for the boyfriend too. Both of you can build a world for yourselves that way. Plus learning something new together can bring you closer.
I am here for you. Message me if you just need to vent or want ideas.
As always Jewells.
