needadvice answered Wednesday June 15 2005, 9:51 am: i am sooo sorry for you. you should ask to stay over a friends house and then tell your friend. ask her mom to take you to the police department for a very serious reason that you wish not to tell her. I am your age, so i know this stuff. i havent been abused but i have seen it a LOT on reality TV shows. I really think you should just show the police any marks that are not in certain private spots. i wish you the best of luck and if you dont have any marks, then allow your father to hit you, not TOO bad, of course so that you have proof, otherwise the police will NOT beleive you. Suggest to them a lie detector test and tell them what your father does to you. do this ASAP because if this gets out of hand... well you know. if your dad does this because he gets drunk, suggest that a person you know and trust goes out with him wen he goes out to make sure he WONT drink. again, best of luck, stefanie
tell me what happens @ donnakearns@sbcglobal.net [ needadvice's advice column | Ask needadvice A Question ]

karlyndarlin05 answered Tuesday June 14 2005, 2:08 pm: go to your school counseler or office. if you are already out of school then go to an adult, like a nieghbor or somw one else that you can trust. don't try sucide, your life is so much more. dont' let your dad keep absuing you, if all else fails go straight to the police, they will take you seriously, so he won't be able to abuse you any more

ii_love_yo0h_x3 answered Tuesday June 14 2005, 12:16 pm: well first, suicide is not the answer to that. suicide has never helped anyone and it definitly hurts a lot of people that were very close to the person. try going to an adult that you trust and talk to them about it. show them the marks that your dad has left on you. it could get really serious to where he kills you and that wouldn't be good. if it gets ANY worse than what it already is or you can't take it anymore than i seriously advise that you go to the police and have them moniter the house or something to where if he tries to abuse you again they can see it happen and know for a fact he is. then he'll get sent to prison and you'll get sent to another place where you're safe. i hope i helped you. GOOD LUCK&I HOPE EVERYTHING WORKS OUT!

StarBabe72 answered Monday June 13 2005, 5:14 pm: Go to the police! They can set up cameras in your house without your dad knowing. If they have solid evidence it won't matter what your dad says. The police will also take your word about the abuse. Being suicidal helps absolutely nothing. I really hope I helped!

CCMSbabe answered Monday June 13 2005, 5:07 pm: It depends. If your mom knows, you should go and stay a week or 2 w/ a good friend of yours. Being suicidal just makes things worse. Call DHR and they will come and investigate. [ CCMSbabe's advice column | Ask CCMSbabe A Question ]
karenR answered Monday June 13 2005, 4:48 pm: You do consult the police. Your word means something to them. Don't just assume that dad will be believed and you won't be. Call them and get it over with, you will feel much better. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
ronda answered Monday June 13 2005, 3:42 pm: A parent should never do that to any child.If he gose too far and you get bruses then you should tell the police you`ll have evidence and he can`t deny it? [ ronda's advice column | Ask ronda A Question ]
cUrLyHaiReDcUtiE16 answered Monday June 13 2005, 3:14 pm: heyy .. my dad was abusing my mom a long time back but she consulted with the police and they arrested him for one night but then he got out but no matter what if you call the police saying someone hit you they have to go to jail even if they have no proff for one night and next time he hits you just take a picture with a camera or a camera phone and then show them the proff if you decide to call the police and if he abuses you even more after he gets out call again and then they will realize he is bad and hopefully get dss on him and come check it out
softballcatb answered Monday June 13 2005, 3:07 pm: if you have a father that abuses you talk to an adult. Or a good friend tht you can trust and you know will be there for you. By hurting yourself its like putting pain on yourself, only not by your dad. if you want to talk to me more you can im me at: guardskluv@aol.com. if you dont feel comfortable in your home then you cant call it a home at all. dont be afraid. violence is not the answer for yourself. its not your fault and never will be .its your choice, live with it with your dad or live without it with someone that is willing to care for you. I have the same situation with a friend of mine. dont be afraid and do what you think is right. GOOD LUCK. [ softballcatb's advice column | Ask softballcatb A Question ]
PurplePensRawkMe answered Monday June 13 2005, 2:59 pm: well first off, you father's a jackass, and you should pull a knife on him. what a bastard. CALL DHR. they will definately take him into custody. OH..if you have a friend over, she/he could be a witness.
laurentaylor927 answered Monday June 13 2005, 2:58 pm: oh my goodness! you may think that, but if you do tell the police(which is most deff the right answer!) they will call CPS(child protective services) and come and make random house checks, and also there are hotlines that you can call for this kind of stuff! and your right, being suicidal is deff not the way to go! all it does is make things worse. also, if you have any relitaves that you could talk to, that would be of major help also!
please dont let this continue! take action!
*i really hope i helped* and if you ever need someone to talk to just IM me at...
XxKaTiExLeIgHxX answered Monday June 13 2005, 2:56 pm: OMG...thats horrible! Im so sorry! ok well to go to the police you have to have evidence that he abuses you. Maybe set up a camera so you can video tape it, and the only other way is to show them the brusies and things of that sort, but I think you would get better help with the first one because you have actual hard core proof. Im sooo sorry, nobody should ever have to go through that especially at your age, Im glad you figured out that sucide isnt the answer. If you want to talk more just leave one in my inbox with your SN. I Hope I helped! Much Love...Good luck... ♥ [ XxKaTiExLeIgHxX's advice column | Ask XxKaTiExLeIgHxX A Question ]
maygenx3 answered Monday June 13 2005, 2:50 pm: This is a very difficult question to answer so ill answer it as best I can. Your father and no one else has the right to invade your privacy and abuse you AND your self esteem this way. Does your mom know about this? It could help to talk to her or someone else you trust. Also as stupid as it sounds school counselors can REALLY help you out with these kinds of things, they keep things confidential and can get you the help you need without your father knowing. Becoming suicidal is NOT the answer believe me you havent done anything to deserve what your father is doing to you and you shouldnt have to pay for his sick actions. All i can say is talk to the police, is there bruises on your arms or anywheres else something that is proof, police aer VERY concerned with these types of things and youll gain a lot more than you think if you talk to them. Stop letting him treat you this way do something about it.
I hope everything works out for you. If you ever need to talk send me a message to my inbox and ill help in ANY way i possibly can.
