Ive been robbed of my childhood and im currently beying robbed of my teen years. I've learned to just deal with it...and wait till i can leave off on my own.Im sad, pathetic, and always in a depressing mood ever since i turned 13.

Ok, here's some thoughts- some kids have a harder life than others. My nephew (on my wife's side of the family), has seen his world turned upside down. Dad lost his eyesight years ago, mom went from being the perfect privileged Mom to a crack addict, hanging out in sleazy bars trading sex for drugs. Not pretty... his parents divorced and then his mom sweet talked his dad (who's blind, and not dating alot as a result) into remarrying. SO, this kid thinks that his dreams have been answered... but they get divorced a SECOND time... and now he's being raised by his dad, except it is the KID who's having to be the adult and take care of stuff.
It's rough, but it could be worse- they have a house, and the bills are paid. He goes to an OK school and is going to college. Life will get good once he's moved to a new city and can get out a bit on his own....
Many of us found the same thing- before 16 life pretty much sucks for a lot of kids- you're trapped, there's no great escape. If you can get a license and a car, there's some freedom, but paying for the gas, insurance and upkeep can tie you to a job...
Life will get better (trust me!), and college should be the BEST 4, 5 or 6 years of your life! Stick with it, find some kids you can hang with that share the same values as you (make sure that they are good values- you need not be a saint, just done be stupid and ruin your life before it's started. I originally hung out with the stoners, fun for a few months, but they we not going anywhere (and years later, never did... total loosers- which at 30+ is PATHETIC to see. Minimum wage is ok when your 17, but not 33...
I found kids in the technical theater group, lighting, sounds, building stuff. One of my friends made it big and toured for years with world famous bands... great!
The one thing to remember is that life does change, and 99.9% of the time for the better- we all worry that it will get worse, but seldom is that the reality. Try to find something good in every day- as stupid as it may sound a positive attitude will generate positive experience, and a negative one will bring more negativity... just the way it works!

Many successful people have overcame great obstacles to even survive. There are group and mentoring programs available...you definitely need to reach out for help. Can you tell us a little more about your situation? What has robbed you of your childhood? Are you suffering from abuse or neglect? if so there are protective services and dhs, school counselors, ministers,.is there anything you can think of that would help? Mal
