im not sure if this would be considered abuse or not
Question Posted Sunday December 18 2005, 9:17 pm
my dad is always really impatient and sometimes he hurts me but i dont know if it would be considered abusing me. the worst time was when he shoved me up the stairs and started smacking me screaming at me and then shoved me into my room and i hit the door..it was horrible. other times he squeezes my arm or twists it so i listen to him. so would this be considered abuse or not? if it is should i do something about it? thanks, i rate high!!!

If he continues to do it hit him back, that will let him know that you wont take it anymore. At first, he might hit you harder or whatever, but if you keep up with it and keeping fighting back then he will eventually stop.

I wuoldnt immediately go to a counselor, without talking to my father first. Tell him how you feel about his physical harm. Maybe this will make him see that he does lose his temper and can become violent. This may cause a change. However, if the problem persists, or gets worse, you should definately seek help in a school counselor or another adult! Hope this helped!

No matter what you say or do, you shouldn't be hit thrown around or treated like that. If you think talking to your dad will anger him to that kind of degree again you need to talk to another parent, a school counsler, or anyone you can trust who will take action. That's not safe and if you let that continue it'll only lead to worse things.

sweet08dreams answered Sunday December 18 2005, 9:56 pm: anything that is hurting you in anyway is abuse. no father in this world has any right what so ever to hurt their child. my advice to do something about it right away! you do not deserve to be treated like that at all. talk to someone around you who you trust and can help you with the situation, most likely an adult.
i hope everything works out but please do something quickly before you really get injured or maybe even hospitalized.

Child abuse is defined as the physical or psychologoical maltreatment of a child.
Don't just sit there and take it. Maybe talk to him about it if you're up for it? If he doesn't stop, please consult another adult. You shouldn't have to deal with this.
