I really don't know your situation, but here are my thoughts. These are tough times, you also need to consider who has supported you the first 20 years of your life. I can understand you wanting your independence though it would be much easier to move out on your own with the support of your family.
Good luck with the choice you make.

Did you see if you can have a large tank(s) in this place you're looking at? Have you checked out getting an advocate? He/she may be able to help you find a place where you don't need a cosigner and can have fish.
Well this is what me and my best friend are doing in a year or so. We are going to rent a house together and split the cost (possibly getting another roommate to make the portion we pay per person smaller) renting a place is almost as much as an apartment (well in detroit anyway). What I recomend is finding some friends and rent a house instead of an apartment, there will be plenty of room for your fish and usually things like a stove, fridge, washer and dryer are included there, sometimes furniture is too and some places have the utilities included in the rent so you don't have to go out and buy all those things. Plus it's a house so you wont really have to share that much space besides the bathroom. Usually places allow fish so yeah. I totally understand where you're coming from tho, you're starting to feel like "oh god i gata get out of here". I feel that every single day Dx
well ill have to wait tell friday to find out what i can do ( my social worker will be here for 2 hours so ill ask him what i can do ) but ive been at my friends for the last few days so il be staying home tonight prolly.
and ive been back and forth b/w family members and friends for the last 3 years so i really havent been at one place for more then a year. and now i wanna get settled and get a place of my own. and and from the ages of 5 to 10 or 12 was it? i was in a few foster homes and from 10 or 12 i lived wit my mom tell i was 17 ( when she passed away ) and from 17 tell now i lived with all my family members and some of my friends, so now yupp i wanna get my own place and settle down for the rest of my life that i live instead of always moving back and forth, when i move out and if i dont make it im not welcomed back to my grannys to live so ill prolly be living with my dad or finding anothe place, but hoping i get the apt and things work out as planned!! but ill let you know friday.
your not welcome back at your grandmas because you took money away from them. i would be willing to bet she was skimming your account for themselves because she had control of it.
also i notice your grandad said about breaking promises and trust. he was trying to guilt you into staying. you are nothing but a cash machine to them, its disgusting behaviour from a family member who is supposed to have your best interests at heart.

well my grandad told me if i stay here another year he will co sign for me next summer so im stuck here tell then, which isnt that bad i guess lol
remember to take care of your own money. tell them its to get in practice for paying bills when you eventually move out. teaching you some responsibility so you can make it on your own.
good luck.
good luck.
Personally I think you should talk to dad or someone else about co signing your apartment. I'm pretty sure she's milk you for what ever you are worth for this year and then refuse to co-sign. She has no reason what so ever to keep her word and you have no way to compel her. Talk to your social worker.
