Should/ Could I put myself in foster care?
I am 12 years old. I'm not some spoiled kid who wants to complain about not having a new iPhone. I have real reasons. My single mother, 2 brothers ,and I move around every 6-9 months. I just got back from Texas 7 months ago. We moved out of are grandmas house into a 2 bedroom condo 6 months ago. I share a room with one of my brothers (I am used to it). My mother gets stressed out because we can barely afford the basics. We have a couch but I have been sleeping on a blow up mattress for 6 months because we can't afford beds or drawers. We can barely afford food.
I blame me for her stress cause once and a while she gets angry and pushes me into a wall, punches me to the ground, etc. She's calls me things that I have never even heard of and I'm lost too. I think that I ask too much of her only because I'm a preteen. I am so depressed that I began to cut till the white meat shows, I wear baggy clothes so she won't tell me that I think I am grown. My life is surrounded by her.
I am doing/asking this for her and me. For my health, and her pressure.
