Okay so first I'd just like to say I had no idea exactly how to word this question but basically I'm wondering if my only surviving legal parent is still obligated to support me (ie. Clothes, food, health care) now that I've been identified by my counties homeless liaison as "in transition".
Last fall my mother passed away, whom I was living with, and since then I've been staying with friends. I'm 17 and attend an alternative school and one of my teachers mentioned something about my dad having the legal obligation to support me (child support? ). I was wondering if that is indeed the case, and if so, as how I would go about 'getting' said support.
Also, please refrain from saying anything to the effect of "go home". I was subjected to years of childhood sexual abuse by a someone currently living in his home, among other things, causing that not to be a feasible option.
