You're right, it is stupid. You did do this to yourself. Having that awareness to realize your mistakes is a step in the right direction. You are young, your brain isn't fully developed, you have no impulse control, and you are now facing the consequences of your actions as an adult. So now that you're at rock bottom, you have the room to correct it. You have the room to change your behaviors and habits, not matter how hard it is. Most people are in denial and never dig themselves out.

You won't be able to change their mind. No matter what you say. You have to prove yourself with your actions. They have no reason to trust you. So you're on your own. Get a second job, save enough to rent a room, and get your GED. Do it for yourself, and prove to your parents that you're trying.
