    If my father kicks me out of the family home for being cheeky, does my father have to pay my uncle maintenance. As my uncle is paying my room and board and any school fees I have. I have been living with my uncle for 7 months. My mom died and my dad had a new girlfriend in 5 weeks. I could never accept her. She was nice to me, but I could never accept it. My big sister 19 moved too Canada, my little brothers 8. & 12 live at home. I will be 16 in two more weeks.
    My uncle doesn't talk to my dad and says he wants no money. But should my dad pay. We live in a rural village, I haven't many options. My mom was an only child and I only have one uncle and a Aunt in Canada. She said I need to finish school before going over like my sis did.

    I didn't want to leave the house. I was cheeky to my dad. But he changed the locks on the door, he told me to be home at 9pm, at 9:10 he tested 'you Don't live here anymore, good luck in life' I called him and he didn't answer. My brother let me into the house, my dad physically threw me out. I have lived in my uncle's since. He won't talk to me. Any fees or subs for hurling my uncle pays. He bought me a new bike from school. When my uncle went to collect it my dad said 'I bought it, he can't have it' I live about 10km from school so I need it.

    I know I was cheeky all the time. I blanked his new GF. I missed my mom, she was trying to replace her. I never spoke to her. Never insulted her. Never sat in the same room. This is my punishment. I lost my mom , dad and home in the same year.

    7 months on and my uncle still looks after me. Should my dad pay for me to live here?

    Hi OP - as you are a minor this is really beyond what we can help you with.

    Suggest you seek or your uncle seeks legal advice or contacts child welfare.
