<human>: Condense the text into a few key points

I'm not sure how to format this, so I'm going to try to get to the point as fast as possible.

I have very, very few friends and a long-distance relationship with a really lovely guy. I've been having trouble with my divorced parents, my dad is unemployed and my mom is abusive. My boyfriend really hates seeing me upset and about a month ago in a bit of an argument, he told me that if I don't do anything about my mom hitting me he's going to cut contact. Despite how mean that seems, he's really a good guy and I depend on him quite a lot.

In the past month, my mother's only gotten worse and earlier tonight I told him about it. He's giving me until tomorrow to call the police or do something about it or he's going to cut contact. I can't call the police because I don't have any good relatives except my father, who cannot support my sister and I. If I call the police, we're going to be taken into custody or something and I really can't choose between keeping him and not leaving everyone else.

My current plan is to wait until my dad finds a job so I can be put into his custody, but my boyfriend wants me to act now. I'm just not sure what to do to stop him from leaving.
<bot>: I need a way to convince my boyfriend I'm trying to stop my mom from abusing me until my dad gets a job.
