TW: Abuse

Today I was on my way home to return to my house almost being lit on fire, one of my parent's was in the kitchen with a cooking pot (that had residue) and it shortly went into flames right into my living room. I almost saw my house burning, and one of my parents was still hesitating to call for an emergency number because he was afraid they'd charge him with a complaint. I can't live in this place anymore, I only have a small form of income from a part time job, and I'm still studying, I don't have much options remaining for me right now. My parents think I should just calm down but this is the third situation where I was caught in a place like this. I'm pushing to get into renting an apartment and canceling my degree just to get in a safe place. I've suffered this for years, I don't want to see this happen with me not knowing anymore.

Would online courses be a possibility for you?

I'm about to have a practical course soon, I'm not sure if I'll able to.

Are your parents competent to stay alone ? Im asking because some places have a day care type program for adults so their caregivers can do what they need to.

They're still saying it's early for them to, my parents are still not always home, and they don't have housekeeping. If given that i graduate I'll be able to move out but, unfortunately it's not the case yet.
