1. Your father is obligated to take care of you until you are 18 regardless of the situation. Naturally you can understand his position in being upset. However, being upset about a situation does not EVER give the right to abuse you in any way. He will have to face the consequences for any abuse he causes.

2. You are still considered a minor and can get yourself into a lot of trouble legally by running away. go home.....or SOMEWHERE SAFE, and CONTACT THE LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT letting them know the circumstance, they will be able to help you.

3. If your fiance is over the age of 18, you need to be very careful. He is likely to find himself in his own legal trouble for being with you, especially if you are still considered a runaway.

Seek legal help. If your home with your father is truly an unsafe place to live, the police will be able to get you in contact with the appropriate departments in your area to help you. Focus on finishing school, and doing what you need to do for your life. If you are seriously planning on getting married to this guy, your relationship through this time while you are still underage and in school going through drama will only make your relationship stronger. Do the right thing. Make the right choices. Don't add fuel to the fire with your father. He is likely only trying to protect you. Marriage is difficult and shouldn't be jumped into lightly. Your fiance should understand this and be willing to do what is necessary to get through this year until you are 18, done with school, and are able to move out on your own.

Contact the local police department and get help. They will make sure you are in a safe environment.
