Legal Question in Family Law in California

hello.i am a pregnant 17 year old girl from california,and am in the state of florida at this moment. My boyfriend and i want to stay here and get our life started,and i have alot of opening up to me. My boyfriend is 18 years of age,and his mother,knowing of the pregnancy,is more than willing to let me and him live with her until we are settled. My situation is this. My mother and i over the years have had petty fights,and she has disagreed with all my choices from day one. I've suffered incredible amounts of mental abuse,that has pushed me to the point of throwing up,even before the pregnancy. I have tried reasoning with her,but her main issue is that i think about myself. I had told her that even if i have to,i will join job corps,so i can learn and make it in life,and she says "im not set here and u theart me with shit". I admit,i bicker back,but i will not just stand there and let her abuse me that way. She has,for many years,insisted that i was fat,that i needed make-up,that noone wants a lazy ass,though i worked while i was there. I am tired of all of this fuss,and wish to move out on my own. I am turning 18 in the next 2 1/2 months,though i fear i can not handle this stress and abuse any longer..
