That doesn't sound like a good situation. Is talking to them about it an option?
Cody Turner OKC:
No, They care about thereselfes and there bad habits and thats it, I am too embarrased to try and ask a friend to have it sent to them, I have to explain enough already about why they cant come over and why there is always problems, usually if i leave my parents alone, they leave me alone, and I am happy, otherwise they make my life terrible, thank you for the ideas though guys, you all have helped me more on this post then I have ever remembered being helped by my parents, it feels good for once, I think i figured out my meter problem to, I havent found replacments yet but im looking through boards of tear downs i have done for the diode bridge and smd diode, im on summer brake at school right now so I have lots of time!

Man, get out of there as soon as you can, that sounds like a losing environment. In the meantime stay focused on school and do the best you can there, not to sound cliche but a good education is your ticket out of that mess.

Yup that is very true, the kid's got a good work ethic so i'm not worried about him, i feel for him because i have friends whose parents acted the same way when we were growing up. i don't know how long you have to go before college applications Cody but work hard towards that and you will be very happy  :clap:

Watch a lot of joe smith's youtube videos too. I don't know a single resource online that has more meters being destroyed and repaired with such clear and easy to digest material.

That doesn't sound like a great situation. Just know that the world can seem like a terrible place at times and it sometimes is, but that it's also full of people who are willing to help you. There are plenty of incredible people who often materialise when you think things couldn't get worse. Remember that your current situation isn't the rest of your life. As other people have said, make sure to develop your skills and do well in school. Having success is the best answer to people causing you trouble.

If you ever need some help with electronics or your more general situation, don't be afraid to ask. It sounds like an already unfair situation, you shouldn't have to keep it a secret and do it all on your own for fear of people thinking badly about you. Even just talking about it could help.
