    How do I get put into care, or just somewhere else to live?
    Erh I'm 16. My parents hit me and the usual. I've taken that for near enough my whole life. But recently, my parents have been taking sides, never mine. I have a 14 year old brother who is the biggest little s*** I have ever met. He annoys me so much, and I hit him. Being the attention seeker he is, he cries when my parents are near. When they are not around, tears are nowhere to be seen. Every time, I get shouted at for it? It's as if my brother WANTS me to hit him.
    The main issue I have is the lack of support. All my parents do is compare me to cousins/friends. They take the negative points out of me, and contrast it to others. They never say the good things, oh no. That'd be too much to ask. For instance, I worked from 5pm-10pm on a Saturday night.. When I got back in, I sat on my phone for about 5 minutes before I went for a shower. I got shouted at for being on my phone too much? -.- Then apparently I don't do enough work either. I said that I'd worked from 5 till 10, but just because my brother had worked from 3-9, my hours aren't significant.
    They just don't care.
    I give the f*** up. Please can someone help me find a way to live somewhere else.. Or put into care. Thanks!

    First stop hitting your brother, violence is not an answer.

    Report to the police when your parents hit you, can get children services involved.

    Have a private talk with a trusted teacher or school counsellor. They may be able to help you more than anyone. Is there another adult you trust, and admire, and can have a conversation with, or family member?

    It always helps to have a friend on your side, that listens and supports, without judging.
