My mom has gone too far, what can I do?

Do you have a therapist/counselor at school that you can talk to? Or another trusted family member or adult friend? This is neglect, plain and simple, and you need to make someone aware of it….

That sucks .. but if you go to the authorities she’ll soon be out of her rights and you’ll b e placed with other family members [ if you have any ] or foster care.

I know it may be to early but you need to start taking care of yourself a bit from now on.

I’ll pray for your family situation.

Talk to an adult that you trust. If you can talk to someone at your school, such as the nurse or guidance counselor, they can help get you in touch with other people to help you out. If you don’t feel comfortable talking to people at your school, you could try talking to someone a social services directly about what’s going on. Unfortunately, not having health insurance can make things a lot harder when it comes to needing to see doctors. Has you mother looked into getting insurance through the state?

A parent does not intentionally ignore their children. I am not sure of your age, but your mother is in big violation of the law.Its call child neglect.

Do this, Make a phone call to the Youth Guidance section of your local police department. A detective will come to meet you anywhere you chose. Explain the situation to the detective and let him investigate.

There will be action taken for you to receive the help you need and deserve.

Make the call.

Find out why you are no longer covered for care with your braces, call the orthodontist you used to see and ask their desk people about the account. Ask what can be done so you can be seen again, ask what costs are involved and what kinds of payment plans are available.

If you call CPS or talk to a school counselor then the chances are great you might be removed from your home and place temporarily in foster care or a group home, neither of those are good places to be if you’re not being neglected in any other way at home. Try to work something out with the orthodontist first.

@Neizvestnaya It’s not just the orthodontist. My brother has been turned into something he’s not because our mom doesn’t pay any attention to us and lets him do as he pleases when he pleases.

@rock4ever: I’m really sad to read that. There comes a point when in a situation like yours, you must take over as much care for yourself as possible, maybe reach out to extended family like grandparents?

We could make all kinds of guesses as to why your mom is doing what she’s doing (and not doing) but I can pretty much guarantee you confronting her with it isn’t going to get you, your doggie or your brother what you all need in time.

talk to somebody about it. your grandparents, someone you trust at school, anyone that is in a position to help you. This happened in my family-my kids were much younger- and it was me! I was the mum. I regret it more than anything, and now I am trying to get back to them. perhaps you can catch her in a moment and make her listen to how you feel. It might shake her up. If you have any relatives, talk to them. Please do it soon

I think I know what I’ll do. I can trust my grandma and I’ll talk to her about it. Thank you all for helping.

Good luck. I am sorry you are going through this. It’s sad that you can notice this circumstance and your mother can’t :(

Please let us know how it goes. We care.

@john65pennington is the call is made sooner or later the mother will be stripped of her parent rights. Because they won’t give her enough time to change.

Help is needed indeed but He needs to think about it carefully.
