Please help
I’m a (20F) currently enrolled at iobm, but I’m waiting for the second round of admissions at iba and may apply there. I come from a strict household, and over the past few months, it has become quite toxic. My siblings and I frequently get scolded for everything, and I’ve noticed a troubling pattern: whenever I argue with my father, he threatens not to pay for my education. He usually says this in the heat of the moment, as he is otherwise nice, but he has severe anger issues and has made threats to kick me out and stop funding my education multiple times. I’m financially dependent on him. I receive a pocket money allowance of 5,000 and earn about 10,000 by tutoring a child. Unfortunately, I can’t work many hours because I’m always preparing for my entry tests, and I prefer jobs that allow me to work from home or within my area. I also struggle with severe anxiety, which causes frequent headaches, making it hard for me to work in environments like ibex or call centers. I don't think my parents would allow me to work there anyway, and I’ve heard that the work environment is not ideal. I’m asking for help because I'm hoping to learn new skills or courses that can help me land an online job. If there are any other opportunities available, I would love to know about them. I can’t risk my education if my father decides to stop paying for it one day. Even if it’s not much, I hope to earn enough to support myself with clothes, university test fees, and other necessities, as it’s becoming increasingly difficult to rely on my parents.
