You have wayyy too much on your plate! Not only is someone leaving you, but almost seems like your whole family is going hawire! (No offense!) As I say to everybody, start a journal. Write in it everyday or night, telling your story. I hope everything works out! Good Luck!

It's tough when parents fight. It's not good that your dad hits your mom. Get a phone book and loock up a marriage councelor. They need some help. Otherwise your mom will end up really hurt. If he keeps hitting her you have to let some1 know. i know hes ur dad and you love him but you can't let this keep happening.

you need intervention for your parents! call a help hotline they'll know what to do. counseling and help from obsessive consumption. you'll be alright if you keep yourself safe. your brother was right to step in for your mother. stand up and be strong too and let them know where they stand. if they come after you get help. but don't let this go unnoticed, it only grows. there are many hotlines that will help u out with this one, its a growing problem. evern child protective services could take care of thiso one.

What you can do is be supportive of your mom. Talk to her about getting elp because shes been abused..tell her you want family counseling. None of this is your fault..so dont think you can save everything and make it right.Your dad needs to do a lot of that. After you elt your voice be heard..there isnt much you can do. Space yourself away from your dad..keep yourself happy by hanging with friends more. I hope this all passes. Best of luck.

Just kind of space yourself from your family a little bit, stay in your room. Don't try to fix anything, maybe talk to your mom. About your dad, stay away from him, either your brother will figure something out, or your mom will, but if I were you, the more space for now, the better. Just be there for any of your family members to talk to, if worse comes to worst, call the police or CPS, someone that can make the situation more controlled. I really hope things work out, Merry Christmas! -Angel
