It depends on why you are in custody. In many instances, like traffic violations, minors are automatically remanded to the adult court system. That's why your parents do not have to be contacted or notified for traffic violations.

What do you do if youre abused at home and nobody will listen?

First contact the police. From there, you should contact your state's department of child and family services if you are a child or if there is a child being abused in the home. If you are an adult and there are no children in the home, you can start with a local domestic violence project if you need help getting out. Or you can just leave.
