Warning-this post might be a bit long.
Long story short, I have been trying to get help since my early teens to escape domestic violence and abuse. My mother enabled this behavior on behalf of my father for many years now, and the both of them have effectively thwarted every attempt on my behalf to break free. Not a year would go by without my father risking us ending up on the street, amongst other things. Eventually, I decided to risk it all and introduced my family to Spiritual Satanism (I excluded my Xian Father for my own safety, he wouldn't even accept me not believing his "God" was real). It did help my mother and my sibling immensely, and I eventually ended up graduating from trade school, etc. Everything escalated to it's breaking point during lockdown, last year, with my father physically attacking my mother (he has attacked us before and even my mother would COVER for him when I once tried getting Child Protection Services involved). I called the cops and...my mother still covered for him (she depends on him financial ly)... fortunately the evidence was so obvious that the cops helped me get a temporary restraining order...during this time my mother decided to not press any charges for fear of ending up on the street...I understood, and convinced my father to live as expats (my father would be forced to stay behind for his job, limiting contact). This bought us time to think things through. My mother clearly WANTS to keep depending on him...I felt like I was losing my sanity...My brother will become a legal adult next year...I literally sacrificed much of my own personal time to help homeschool my brother, amongst other things, but alas, my human limits have been reached. I feel like it is time for me to basically escape my parents' control (they won't even let me walk around the corner without their "permission"). I feel like focusing on my financial independence and moving out will help also give my brother somewhere to run off to. I need an opinion outside of the bubble, so-to-speak. What do you guys think?
