Toxic Parents

I don't know what to do anymore.

I'm a 20 year old, full time college student who, for the summer, is living and working for her parents. They are paying for my college and they are constantly using that to control me and make me do what they want. They make loans look like a deal with the devil although they just recently took one out for a large amount.

Almost every day, I have to listen to my mother talk about me like I make her life a living hell. Just a few minutes ago, she said she wants to take their time on their vacation because she wants away from me for a bit.

Anytime I catch her doing this or blaming me for something that's her own fault, I confront her about it but I'm the one who gets in trouble and gets yelled at.

What can I do? I can't leave until next summer. I just don't know what to do anymore.
