The law might be different where you live but in the UK, you are old enough to decide who you live with but there may be some practical considerations (eg. can he support you? Does he have a house that's big enough?). Is there a child advice line that you know of? They'll be able to give you any relevant information you need. Or is there a teacher at your school you trust? There's no reason for you to remain with your mom if you don't want to. Every situation is different, you really ought to talk to a teacher or school therapist about your feelings, they may be able to speak on your behalf in court... If things are really bad with your mom, you could call a teen help line and they can direct you to local resources in your area...

Honor is a very important thing in Japanese culture even more so than the Chinese. They'd rather die than surrender (the way of the samurai's or their Bushido) and there is no way to say surrender in Japanese, it just doesn't exist.

If you are using the word as an improper noun, then no. It is like the words “doctor“ and “professor” in this way.
Examples:
I met Rabbi Goldbloom‘s husband yesterday. Her husband is also a rabbi.
Talk to your rabbi about that issue. My rabbi— whose name is Rabbi Diamond— is of a different sect.

Is it important to use proper grammar at work?
It probably depends on where you work. In some work environments, such as one in which you have little contact verbally with others, your grammar might not be an issue to the others. But if you are working in a job in which you would want to make a good impression with your speech, then good grammar would be more important. Of course the attitude of your boss toward grammar would be important too. If he or she thinks proper grammar is important for your job, perhaps you should also. Depending on the kind of work you do it can become important. The more information you have to communicate within the company the more important grammar becomes. It can be a good indicator of how educated you are. The more educated you are the more is expected of you and therefore the better grammar you have to have.
