TEEN LINE WROTE:
Hey, thanks for emailing us at TEEN LINE. It sounds like you are feeling very trapped and hopeless right now. It can be so hard to deal with living in a place you don't like and feel like you can't do anything about it. I wonder if you have talked about this with your grandmother. It seems like talking with your parents may not be helping, but sometimes finding an adult who you can confide in can help you make the best decision for you. You say that it gets really violent with your parents the more you try and talk about it with them. I am concerned for you. If something dangerous is going on, and you fear for your safety, I really encourage you to call the National Child Abuse Hotline at 800-422-4453. I also want to encourage you to call us here at TEEN LINE. Our number is 310-855-4673 and we are open from 6-10 pm PST.
