mom hits me


Question Posted Saturday August 28 2004, 3:03 am

hi im a 15 year old girl and my mom hits me a lot. i was wondering what you think i should do to get her to stop?

[ Answer this question ]

Additional info, added Saturday August 28 2004, 12:28 pm:
no its not cuz i do something wrong...well like not really do something wrong but shell make it seem like i did...my mom has bi polar and a borderline personality so she like blows things out of proportion...like for example...i could tell her that he hair was messed up a lil bit and shed like slap me. or shed make a huge mess and not tell me to clean it up and then come back to it and start screaming at me and hitting me for not cleaning it. and she does other stuff too like she burns my arm and shes cut me like with a knife on purpose before. im like really scared of her. my older brother (hes 19) has tried to get her to get help but everytime hes talks to her she gets mad and starts hitting me. i just need to know what to do to get her to stop..

she cut you with a knife and burned you!? thats not right. you need to get help, and fast! thats not good, thats called abuse and thats illegal. talk to your brother about this too, and i know you posted this 3 years ago, but this is still bad. so you need to talk to someone about this, fast!
hope i helped xo -emily

Tell her it's hurting you. Tell her if she keeps doing this you will end up in a death bed. And slapping you isn't going to help anyone. it just hurts...If it doesn't work call for help, she may be in trouble. But if you don't get help she'll be the reason of why you died in such an early age. Go be with your brother for awhile til she cools down for now. I honestly don't know what to say. Cause I'm abit bi polar myselff. But I controlled my issues...And I want to help...

You REALLY need to tell someone. That's definately abuse, and it needs to be stopped.

Ok, tell an adult or teacher you trust NOW! This is child abuse and it needs to stop. Stay away from your mother, and tell a trustworthy adult right away. You're very brave, hang in there sweetie.

IT DEPENDS ON WHY SHE IS HITTING YOU....IF SHE IS HITTING YOU BECAUSE YOU DID SOMETHING WRONG THEN NO.......BUT.... IF SHE IS HITTING YOU FOR FUN THEN I WOULD DEFINITLY TELL SOME ONE.....YOU COULD TELL YOUR NEIGHBOR...YOUR TEACHER....OR A POLICE....

russianspy1234 answered Sunday August 29 2004, 1:10 am:
ok this has gone waaay beyond talking to her if shes cutting you and burning you. you need to call the police like now. i want you to pick up the phone and dial the cops. at any moment she could snap and seriously hurt you.

cops asap.

My mom works at the hospital on the phychiatric unit. If your mom doesnt think she needs help and you tried to tell her already then I think that maybe it is time to tell your counsler and maybe they can do something. Sometimes when people need help they dont know it so other people have to get help for them. That is not right the way your mother treats you and I pray that things get better.

xfallingfor3verx answered Saturday August 28 2004, 8:43 pm:
I think you should talk to one of your friends mom and get them to help you..calling the police or CYS or something like that could get her really mad and make her do something crazy...maybe talking to a friends mom without your mom knowing could help by them trying to talk to her or by them calling the police or CYS well if that doesn't work then e-mail me and I'll try to give you different advice...=( I'm sorry you have to go threw that...hope this helps!

jesikuh977 answered Saturday August 28 2004, 7:29 pm:
maybe you should get help somehow...talk to some one about getting your mom to a doctor because just because she has a disease doesnt mean she can treat you like that. but atleast tell an adult that u seriously think she needs to see a doctor but u cant tell her that cuz she'll snap...=( i hope everything goes well for you and im sorry about ur situ!!

Blondie04 answered Saturday August 28 2004, 4:11 pm:
You and your brother need to contact the Family and Children's Services program near you (I don't know where you live) and let them know just what you said on your advice column. This is a serious topic and the only way to get her to stop is to get someone who is able to control her and keep her from doing it. They may take you away from your home (with your brother) and send you to a safer place or with a relative unti she gets straightened out. It may seem hard, but it wil be for the better. I'm actually adopted into a family that loves and cares for me. My real family would have probably been doing to same things, if not worse.

You need to call the cops or child services.She is obviously not stable enough to have children.And you and your brother are old enough to get out!!!

dancergal1024 answered Saturday August 28 2004, 11:23 am:
okay you need to tell someone anyone before it gets worse tell a teacher or your friends mom or just anyone...because I dont know how you should approach your mom...if it were me tho id hit her before she hit me and say thats how it feels and run away to my friends house...buts thats what I would do...and thats not exactly the best way to go about this...hopefully once you tell the person lets say you told your teacher...the teacher has an obligation to tell your mom that its child abuse

Here-To-Help answered Saturday August 28 2004, 11:08 am:
Wow...like does she slap you when you do something like talk back...or is it more of a she goes up to you for no reason and hits you...

I don't know what you can say to make her stop...I have toknow more of the situation...does it get really bad? Is your dad there to help? Talk to your mom and tell her you don't think she should hit you like this...tell her there are other ways to punish you than physically..

If she doesn't listen than talk to you dad or something if it's possible that he could help...

If it gets really bad you need to talk to another adult..

Good Luck.

If she hits really hard and leaves bruises, then you should tell somebody & get out of there. If its just like a light-medium hit, talk to her about it & tell her that it bothers you whenever she does that.

Karen answered Saturday August 28 2004, 9:08 am:
You have to tell her that it hurts when she hits you. Sometimes, she might not even realize that she's hitting you because if she hits you a lot, she's used to it. Maybe when she was a child, her parents hit her to? So that's why she hits you now? I don't know but you should just talk to her about this. If she hits you because you get on her nerves a lot, try not to get on her nerves that much. Hope I helped :)

xO_sTePhIe_Ox answered Saturday August 28 2004, 8:31 am:
Hello =) What kind of hits? Hard or soft? If it's a soft-to-medium hit on the butt or back, I would tell her that it's really bothering you and it's hurting you. If it's hard hits on your body- you need to tell another adult you trust. If you don't feel confortable telling another person, try talking to her and telling her that if she is angry with you, there is no need for her to hit you, and that she should be TALKING to you if there is a problem. If either of those fail- take matters into your own hands and I believe there is a abuse hotline. 1-800-abuse. I hope I helped =) Feel free to leave one in the inbox if you'd like <3 Steph

well, is she hitting you like beating you-tell sum1, and get outta the house

but if you mean spanking, or a backhand when you talk back or sumthin, then tell her that it hurts you, and try to talk to her.

I had this problem too You need to talk to you mom She may not realize shes hurting you sometimes its a reflex because chances are when your mom was a girl a spanking was an acceptable form of punishment and she may see it as one too your best hope is to tell her shes hurting you and maybe you can reach a comprmise (like she doesnt hit you and you make a more conciensious effort to fix ...{insert your biggest flaw here} ) i hope i helped
