First know their behavior is not your fault nor can you control what they think or do. You need to keep yourself and your siblings safe if possible. Take care.

You can try to google “social services in Your City, State” Call them or go there to ask for help. It doesn’t have to be in your city for them to work with you. If you cant find anything…Honestly, I would go to your local police station, literally, and ask for help. Tell them you do not want to press any charges on anyone, nor start any kind of investigation, Tell them you’re just looking for a place that offers help. Be very clear about that and they will point you in the right direction without visiting your house. you can also try the local Job and Family Services bureau. If it is truely a hostile environment, you may consider getting the police and or social services involved directly. They are always anonimous as to who made the claim. I would also ask them to make sure they dont tell anyone that you’re the one who made the claim. You can also google suicide hotline.
