I'm a 14 year old girl living in Oregon. I'm struggling to try and live at my dads house. I am emotionally abused at my mothers house and treated like a lesser person. My mother constantly tells me "you need to eat less", "your ripping the family apart", "your not aloud to say I Love You in this house unless you mean it" she always discusses how my father doesn't pay the child support (when he had to leave his job because he got back surgery and he can't work construction anymore, it hurts him to the point of tears). And I'm called names like "whore" and other things by my mom. My mother thinks I have a manipulation problem a lying problem and a stealing problem. She thinks I'm abusive, I think she's a hypocrite and she needs help. My mom seems to think everything is an argument, I used to self harm really bad Due to my mothers actions. And my mother decided to tell my father it was his fault that I did this and I did it at his house because I hate him.mwhich is all a lie. I have my own room but I used to not have a door, I now have a door but do not have a door knob therefore there is a large hole in my door where my younger siblings think it is appropriate to spy on me while dressing. The walls are so thin in my house I can hear my mom and stepdad having sex, and I hate it. My mother insists to my father in several texts that I listen to them have sex and that I like it. Which is a lie. I have food but I eat the same amount as a 4rth grader due to my mothers "portion control" I have a roof over my head but it leaks I have a floor under my feet but the basement floods in the winter. I have to have a space heater in my room along with the fireplace in the living room along with 2 comforters because I am so cold. If you need t know anything else just ask. What can I do to live at my dads? I'm so desperate to be happy please help.

@Helpfulhelper,
Talk to your father about your wishes. You will need to work with him in order to make this happen. Most likely, everyone will have to go to court.

In the meantime, do what you can to keep yourself safe and warm, and retain your privacy, whether it's changing in the bathroom or wearing extra socks to bed or getting involved with a club or sport at school so you're out of the house. We can't help too much from here. The best people for you to be working with are your father, your doctor, and any other trusted adults, such as a teacher or a member of the clergy.

I'm so sorry this is happening.

Tape the hole in your door shut or put paper over it. - Easy fix.

Wear earphones so you don't have to listen to other people's private time - easy fix.

Does your dad want you to come to live with him, or is that too much for him?

If so, then have him petition the court (ask for a custody hearing) and you tell the judge that you want to go live with him - harder fix, but doable IF your Dad is willing.

(The court will want to know if you have a private room at your dad's and if there is a good school for you to attend.)

Thank you I have tried some of this, my dad already filed once for an emergency custody once it was really nice. But my mom got me back because my dad didn't have a lawyer at the time. He wants to get me back. My mom doesn't want me to go back because she wants the child support money...
