ok i dont know how to word this but i will give an example like today i got some headphones from around the house to see which would have the music come out the loudest from my ipod and like i took these pair of headphones from our family room and my dad started yelling at me saying im not supposed to leave the room with the head phones when i didnt and and so he was like i thought i told u to put them back when he never did so i yelled back at him so he came like running over to me and like almost broke my finger and he said if i did it again he would beat the $h!t out of me and a couple of times he has hit me and i dont know what i should do cause my mom never believes me when i tell her this and when he hits me it never leaves any bruises and he says if he goes to jail for beating me at least he would have found the enjoyment in it

well you need to:
1) talk to SOMEONE anyone a teacher you are really close to or a friends mom or dad or an aunt or uncle would work too!!
2) then to make you feel better get home just stay in your room or go to a friends.
BurnieMac answered Monday October 3 2005, 2:54 am: I'm soo sorry that this is happening to you. The best thing to do is to tell your mom that you really need to talk to her about something in private. Then when it's just you and her, tell her what goes on. If she doesn't believe you and it continues or worsens, then the only thing left to do is get in touch with another adult (family member who you trust or teacher at school) and tell them. If it comes down to it and it's really bad, then the police may have to get involved. This is a touchy situation, and it happens to many, many kids everywhere. I'll pray for you, and if you're religious, I would suggest that you pray about it as well. I hope that this works out. I've been in an abusive home before, and I know that it's not cool; trust me. I've been in that environment. I am glad that you asked me about this, and I really would like for you to tell me how it works out if you want. Good luck and God Bless you. Much love from Burnie Mac (Caleb) [ BurnieMac's advice column | Ask BurnieMac A Question ]
Altruistic answered Monday October 3 2005, 1:41 am: When my parents beat me, no matter how hard they hit, they never leave bruises...how strange. Seeing that i've had several experiences similar to yours, i can tell you that you should get help. My parents use to tell me that if I got them thrown in jail, they'll hunt me down after they get out and beat me even more... but don't listen to your dad. You should talk to a school counselor or something. GET HELP. Don't be like me and suffer by yourself for years. That's child abuse and if it continues, things can end up seriously wrong. So the main point of my reply is, dont keep it to yourself. get help. now. [ Altruistic's advice column | Ask Altruistic A Question ]
