Two nights a go I screamed in horror as I watched my dad choke my mom and then chase her with a knife. I cant stand this anymore. Alcohol is killing him and he doesn't want to admit it
he needs help but if he doesn't want it I know he won't get better. Im holding on to the last thing I have,hope. So far it hasn't helped. What can I do?

Let me start off by telling you how proud I am of you. Not many people would stand this strong in face of such an awful occurence.

You need to tell this to an adult you trust. Neither you nor your mom should be dealing with this anymore. Your dad needs to get help.

Good luck, and I am so sorry you need to deal with this...
