Get substitutes: I gather that you're a teen but I'll assume it's appropriate for me to answer. If they're meeting your physical needs for safety, but unable to provide for you emotionally, find somebody wholesome who'll befriend you -- a teacher, coach, pastor, older teen. There's good people out there, even when biological parents can't do everything that you'd like them to. Be aggressive in your search.
