Not trying to start a fight or anything ... I just want to point something out.
To me that sounds exactly like something your parents would say. This is based on the things you have posted here because I don't know you or your parents.
Yes, your stories can be read regardless of paragraphs or grammar. The point is do we want to make the effort? It is your job to make it easy for us. That's assuming you actually want it to be read in the first place.

Fathers can be especially twisted. It sounds like he gets some kind of kick out of tormenting you about these things. My advice? Get out. No matter what it takes. Call your fathers bluff about "having you kicked out." That's what I had to do when I was 17. I lived in squalor for many years. I didn't have a car until I was married at 29. I didn't go back to college until I was 27. Not that I'm suggesting you wait that long.
I'm 35 now and looking back I wouldn't have done <i>anything</i> differently. You have to stop making excuses for yourself and you have to stop making excuses for your family. My parents and I get along fine now; in fact almost immediately after I moved out we got along better.
