Will I be alone forever?
I am a 17 year old girl. I am homeschooled through a distance learning program, and in my senior year of highschool. I live with my parents, but they don’t get along.

“An ex-cop I know advises that if you have to use a gun on a youth, you should leave the scene immediately, disposing of the wiped off gun as soon as possible. Such a gun cannot, of course, be registered to you, but one bought privately (through the classifieds, for example).”
