My mom kicked me out today two weeks after my 18th birthday. I had expected this because she threatened my brother with it but his situation was different. He had graduated high school his junior year and then went into the army once he turned 18. He never wanted to go off to college. I’m still in high school and will graduate next month. I live in a small rural town in Texas and I know some places you can’t kick your kid out until they graduate high school but going back to live with my mom is unappealing to me so I’d rather just rough it out for now. My high school has a program where you take classes at the community college in town and those classes count for college and high school credit and I have taken enough hours at the college to graduate with my associates next month as well as long as I pass all my finals. I have a car but the title is in my moms name. She says she will switch the title to my name this week but I know that I will need car insurance before that can happen. Also my drivers license is from a different state so I think I need to get it renewed before then also. I have 1500 cash but no real job as of right now. I can start applying once I find a place to shower and have time to go get clothes from my moms house. I have a phone that I’ve paid off but my mom says she is going to take me off of her plan next billing cycle which ends on the 18th of May. I’m paying for unlimited data right now and am using my phones hotspot to connect to my laptop so that I can do my homework. I have one friend that I can ask to stay at his place but I’m not sure if his parents would be okay with that. I don’t have any relatives that live anywhere nearby. I’ve already been accepted into college and have scholarships and that has always been the route I planned to take. I could always go into the military though like my brother. You get food and shelter and a paycheck. I’m an Eagle Scout so I would get an instant pay grade increase. I have no clue what to start doing and no idea how to get my car sorted out. I’ll ask my friend tomorrow at school if his parents would be okay with me staying at his house for awhile. Also I’ve kinda just been chilling in a McDonalds parking lot for a couple hours and have no clue where someone living out of their car is allowed to park so that I can sleep. Any help would be appreciated.
