    Default Abuse from parents. What can i do?

    For at least the last 5-6 years my parents have verbally harassed me over and over about what a failure i am, how much i disappoint them, how i really shouldn't be alive, and many, many more worse things. Can this be filed as abuse? My mom is huge on the verbal abuse towards me and says some terrible things that make me want to hurt myself and have made me before. My dad is extremely violent and has a very short temper. He has no problem with hitting me, punching me and yelling at me as well. I am the youngest of 6 and it's me, my brother Ryan, and my parents who live at home. Ryan takes very much after my dad and has beaten the living crap out of me just as my dad does. Every day for the past 6 years or so i have been nothing but the family punching bag. I come home and if anyone is stressed out then the anger is taken out on me. And at this point i can no longer take it. I am looking into getting emancipated but am finding very little on who i call to get papers and to get out. All that I've found is very unclear. Could anyone please help me with this? I have been on the edge of suicide since i was 12 and high school isn't helping anything. Please, please post anything that will help me. And lead me on my way to things that will best help my cause.
    Thank you

    Abuse should be reported, you can discuss the problems with a school counselor who is mandated to report the abuse.
