Sometimes the rubber nozzle removes easily and once removed the metal nozzle behind the rubber can be unscrewed with a wrench or pliers.
With the nozzle removed and the glue gun is hot it should be possible to push the eraser and the metal ferrule back through the heated tube of the glue gun.
If the nozzle can't be removed it poses some difficulty as a rod or stiff wire will be needed that will go through the hole in the nozzle to push back the eraser. It will probably be a fiddly job and it might not be possible to push the eraser right out but if it can be moved back a little it could be possible to hook it out with the same wire after bending it so there is a small hook on the end.
You made an honest mistake and your parents shouldn't be angry.
If you find you can't remove the eraser; if you have a car repair shop nearby, I am sure you will find help there. Once hot a quick blast of compressed air through the nozzle should clear everything from the heated tube.
Good luck!
First try and get as much glue that is left in between the left over pencil and the tip out. Then find something that is the same diameter as the tip of the glue gun and about 6 inches longer that the length of the gun. With the glue gun OFF jam the object into the tip of the glue gun until it comes out the rear of the gun. Whatever you find to do this needs to be stiff like wire or something of the sort.
