2. Find a safe place.
If you feel unsafe, or if your mother is becoming physically or emotionally abusive, leave the situation and go to a safe place. This could be another room in the house, a neighbor's house, or a public place.
3. Call the police.
If your mother is physically abusing you, or if you feel that you are in imminent danger, call the police.
4. Talk to a trusted adult.
Tell someone you trust, such as a teacher, counselor, or family member, about what is happening. They can offer you support and help you develop a plan to keep yourself safe.
5.Seek legal advice. If you feel your safety is at risk or you fear further harm, you may need to consult a lawyer to understand your rights and options.
6. Develop a safety plan.
If you have to stay in the same house as your mother, make a safety plan to ensure you can remove yourself from potential harm. This may involve keeping a packed bag in a secure location or having a code word with friends or family indicating you need help.
7. Maintain self care
Take care of your physical and emotional well-being during this challenging situation. Prioritize rest, a healthy diet, exercise and reach out to friends for support.
