Can I be put in a foster home if i am being emotionally abused?

I just saw this today, so it's pretty late, but I'm still going to say:
You say that he lead you to depression, self-harm, etc. To an extent, I agree. But it's up to you. If someone says something negative about you, you can't let it get to you. Keep your head up! As for the emotional abuse, it depends on how you define that. Saying that you're fat is, I suppose, in a sense, emotional abuse. But it isn't always greener on the other side. Foster homes can be a nightmare, I've heard. I would talk to someone you trust about the issue. And if DCP didn't put you in a foster home when you voiced your troubles, then unless he does true harm to you other than emotional abuse, you're staying with him. Plus, any teenager can say their parent is abusing them emotionally, even if it's just taking away a privilege for doing something the parents didn't approve of--that can also be a factor. Be strong! If you need someone to talk to, I'm here.
