    Your friend's mother cannot adopt you without the permission of both of your parents. If the house is as uninhabitable as you say it is - and I have no reason to disbelieve you - someone needs to call Child Protective Services. They will investigate and remove you. Your friend's mother can then apply for guardianship.

    Do you have younger brothers and sisters? Older?

    What State?

    Talk to your guidance counselor at school. If conditions are as bad as you say, they will be required to act on it.

    You need to speak with an adult. Someone needs to protect your younger sister and niece if/when you leave. Perhaps someone at school, a clergyman, someone else?

    Where is your father in this scenario?

    Does your mom work? Does she have anyone to help her with the dirty house, and dirty clothes? Like you, for example?
