I hate my dad..I'm not joking. I honestly do and not just for some stupid reason.
My dad always is threatening my mom with a divorce and stuff she starts crying. I hate seeing her cry when she never even did anything to deserve this. He always is calling her horrible names and cussing at her and me. He hits her sometimes too..she almost called the police. He even hit me once..
I'm so scared of him and so is my mom and my brother. I haven't talked to any of them yet about this. Whenever I hear him yelling or something I'm usually in my room and I start crying because it really is starting to upset me. I can't even TALK to my own dad..whenever he says something to me all the horrible things that he has done to my mom and I in the past just flash back in my mind and I can't speak and I have tears in my eyes. Everytime I hear him screaming at my mom I just want to go down there and tell him to calm down and leave her alone but, I just can't..I'm too scared. I don't know what to do anymore. I can't talk to anyone in my family about this.
How do I help my mom and get my dad to stop yelling all the time? (link)

Praying is all well and good if it helps you out but it's not going to solve the situation. If you are still in school talk to your councilor or a teacher you trust. Just talking about it can help and they should be able to help you out one way or another depending on your personal situation. That might sound scary and sound like it could make things worse but this has been going on for far too long and if you do nothing I'm afraid it will just continue until and unless your mum gets the courage to walk out.
If you don't want to talk to someone you know there are several helplines you can call anonymously and free of charge. Not knowing where you're located I can't really provide you with any but google it and you'll find some.
There's no excuse for your Dad's behaviour but on the bright side I'm guessing you'll be out of the house in a few years and so also be in a position to help out your mum and brother a bit more. Until then to be honest there's no real way you alone can get your dad to stop acting the way he doesso either you need to get someone to step in or you're going to have to block it out as best you can and try not to let it affect your life too much.
Hope it gets sorted out. x
