    My mom has been forcing me to go to church, and she also suggested I get church friends because she thinks they'll be better for me and she is upset , that I'm hardly at home and doesn't want me volunteering any more.
    She told me that I won't make good friends at the volunteer program,aShe doesn't know it's for lgbt
    people. I think she's acting like this because she thinks forcing me to go to church with stop me from being a lesbian.:dry:

    Your mom thinks you should be what she wants you to be. Sorry. (*hug*) "Won't make good friends". Right.

    Next time she bruises you call the police. I'd personally go a step further and reach out to the local BAR Association (law organization), find a pro bono attorney who might be interested in a little civil action to pay for counselling and your own place...

    Just make sure you have the marks and she has zero.

    Additionally, you should go to church, talk with the pastor. Tell him you are here because your mother threatened you with violence and hit you. Just ignore the religious bs for a bit :slight_smile:

    You beat me too it, I was going to tell her to run away to a liberal area and never look back. Stocking, I'm sorry your mom's such a jerk.

    like the cost of living in Washington (I linked this earlier I think once?) is only a couple of dimes higher than the minimum wage. If you can manage to get a job paying more than min. wage, or cut some of the expenses like rent, you can live independently. It won't be luxurious but damn it'll be "yours" and she can't take that away from you.

    If you do he church I can see a scenario where they become soft Ally's and maybe some of the church friends will come out

    And then maybe a church split. Lol

    Maybe you can get church friends and try to freak them out.

    Okay, if your mother is hitting you, GET AWAY FROM HER. That is never healthy in any relationship. It must tell you something that she has to resort to using violence in order for her to get what she wants. Doesn't it? I suggest that you go find some friends/other family members that can support you financially and for your sexual orientation. You deserve better than to be coerced into going to church and making friends. I'm appalled that she goes to church and acts this way. Abhorrent...

    this is an Escalation Stocking you need to get out NOW. it is a mistake to think you can endure for a "couple of years". you have to trust me on this as someone who got out of an abusive relationship and who works in the social sector. Please find new accomodations, even a shelter is better than getting hit and worst that i see coming. your mom is, as far as i can see based on your posts, mentally ill and you are not equiped to handle or treat her. she needs professional help.

    think of a shelter as a detour on the path to getting an apartment. there may be social workers or community workers there who can help you get there.(&&&)

    You don't have to do what she says. Just ignore her and get on with your life.
