I turn 16 in december, and get my license in april (thanks to utah's new driving permit laws) shortly after I receive my license, I plan on moving into an apartment (my friend will rent one) and getting emancipated. Once I have filed for emancipation, I plan on informing the police about the many illegal activities that my parents have taken part it, several of which i have proof of. I feel that they should face the penalties for what they havent done for me and my sister. my mother was, and still is too high on prescriptions (not all hers) to notice when we are here or gone, unless some little mundane chore that she could easily do needs to be done. She rarley provided dinner, so me and my sister had little choice but to eat whatever we could find in the cupboards. my father was too busy having an affair with his secretary, and looking at his bondage, beastiality, and "teen rape" stories to care about us. He lied and told us that he was on the local planning commison just so he could be out until 12. I was never watched appropriatly, which led to me being sexually abused. because of the lack of love in the home, and the amount of pain, I filled the void where love should go with pain, and started self harming at age 7. I have discussed charging them with child neglect or abuse with a few people, none of which had a conclusive answer of whether or not it was worth it. this neglect has gone on since i was 6. I am just curious whether I can charge them with child neglect (what the requirements are, and the statute of limitations) and what the penalties are for child neglect (degree of crime and min and max sentences). Im sorry for the numerous grammatical and spelling mistakes i have made in this.. but i am extremely tired.. and after a while it seems pointless to capatilize. :http://www.expertlaw.com/forums/imag...ies/tongue.gif

Thank you!

and with some early intervention you can turn this around. OK?
