So what happened is that my sister found out by me I guess, not hiding because I don't feel ashamed of myself, then she told my sister, and my mom told my dad. They both didn't take it well. Now, I know there is a lot of time for them to take it better or something, maybe when they get older they will realize the mistake they are doing now, but I am so sad I couldn't tell them myself, probably couldn't have get myself to do so, but when I was ready maybe, now everything is so hard.

So my dad said that he thinks that I grew up this way maybe because he's not been close to me (my parents divorced), but something that really made me angry was him comparing his life to mine, and saying that my life will probably be worst, when he married three women, and had children with all of them, and doesn't give a ->-bleeped-<-. I hate him so much, and then he's like, so your mom told me that you use the money I sent for christmas or your birthday to buy for foolish feminine things, and I don't even ask money from him, it's like he should just be that way, plus I really can't get myself to talk, especially since I was not ready to talk about it, he asked me from when did I like guys, but I don't, why do people always think that, it's not about that. My  mom thinks that too, I don't like guys, I told her, but I think she doesn't believe me, what the hell.

My sister told me that maybe if I wasn't so distant from them all the times because she says that I isolate myself really often, than they might get round accepting this more, but that's bull->-bleeped-<-. Religion is the reason they always use, so that's the thing. You know I was actually surprise my dad said something about God, I know he was born catholic, and then turned Muslim to marry my mom, and now I think he's catholic again or something, but it's not like he goes to Church every Sunday, I mean that's not really religious, so that way weird.

Now I got on hormones secretly hoping that my mom doesn't take them away again, if she does I will leave this house, I can't deal with all the abuse, etc... I actually made a recording of her while she was beating me and talking bad about me.

Sweetie, you are in a tough situation with your parents. As a parent myself, it's really hard to hear about that kind of behavior.

How long until you can legally get a job and leave home? And when you say "beating", do you mean your mom was literally hitting you?

I ran into something similar. It seems to be part of the normal coping process. They blame themselves and try to figure out where they went wrong as a parent. At least my mother did. My father blamed my mother for not raising me to be tough and not giving him custody so he could do it. Both of them also thought it meant I was gay. Nobody outside this community seems to know anything about us other than what they see in the movies. As much as I don't want to out myself to the world, things like this make me feel like I'm dropping the ball by not joining one of these activist movements.

I don't know how bad the abuse is that you're talking about or how close to being old enough to move out you area, so I can't really speak to that.

They need time is what I think. The abuse part is to far though. You need to leave if it is coming down to her hitting you regularly. but you are in a very ->-bleeped-<-ty situation...I wish I could do more to help you

Sorry for the non replies, I never checked for replies, I turned 18 so I could do that, and yes she used to, but now she kind of stopped after I threatened her to go to the police, I made a registration of her being abusive, but she is still verbally abusive to me, and she scares me a lot. I can't stand to live with her, but I don't have a job, and can't be independent for now neither, I don't know, there aren't any trans resources, I asked a LGBT youth center here, and they told me that I shouldn't have come out, but I was outed so it's not like I wanted to, and they told me there is nothing they can do. I also don't want to go to a male shelter because they are religious things, and I wouldn't feel comfortable living with guys.
