i dont think there is anything wrong with moving out if you are able too, dont put yourself in a bad situation to get out of another one , it can be really stressful

I think that is perfectly okay. In fact some say the key to mental health is to distance ourselves from our parents lol (Frasier quote) - and from personal experience, I totally would too, if I had the money... So if you can, I wish you all the best.

It is okay. But think.. Why do you hate your family ? Can you do something to change your relationship? And if you want to move so bad. Will you be happier if you moveD?

Yes, I feel the same way often, it is 100% okay to feel that way if they treat you wrong and make you feel unwanted.

Realizing the pressures and responsibilities moving out so early welcomes is very important. I was in this same position, but decided to mutter through due to wanting to get a good education and save money before I jumped into anything too soon. Maybe you could try solving the issues before deciding to flee.

Hating family is no solution of the problem, Talk to them how you feel and see their perspective. Family is not enemy. Be in a healthy and constructive conversation.

Being your own adult means that you may feel it necessary to completely isolate yourself from your family in order to establish your own identity and live your own life. If you can move away while still maintaining a healthy, stable lifestyle then you should do what you feel is necessary.

It is okay. You after all are considered an adult by then so you should be allowed to move out. Just be careful on where you move too.

If you think that it will help you and that you are ready to move out when you turn 18. Then I think it's okay. Although keep in mind that it's not easy to live alone and you need a job as well. I don't know your family situation but maybe you should try to talk to your family and if that does not work then you may do what you think is the best for you.

Sure. Your feelings are your own and if you decide that this is the best course of action for you, then I'd trust you. Make sure you have a plan for living on your own, though. The world can be a scary place.
