You have to tell the police! Or an older source who can help you. Your mom is probably in a really tough situation and so hurt right now. You're probably getting hurt really bad right now too, mentally. You have to call the police and they can get help for your dad and your family. I really hope this helped you and good luck! =)

you need to tell the police because even though hes not hurting you, you are still witnessing him hurting your mom and that is abuse. He needs to get help and it would best for everyone if you inform the police. It would all work out in the end. God bless.

Abuse is really bad and you can't stop it alone. You need to call the cops or one of those protective services things. If you don't do something now, it will only continue most likely get worse. And you'd feel bad if something actually happened to your mom wouldn't you? so, get help asap!
good luck!

There is something you can do.

You can call the cops, and just as JesusFreak said, if she has proof, they can do something about it. If she doesn't at the current time, don't just wait it out and wait for something to escalade. Tell your mother how you feel, be supportive, and still, tell the cops and let them know what's going on. And, if he does yell at you and calls you names, that's emotional/mental abuse.

Well, although he may not be physically abusing you, he's still mentally abusing you and yes, that is still a form of abuse and that is a offense.

Just as JesusFreak said, if you try to tell your dad yourself, you're going to get yourself hurt too.

If your mom has physical evidence of the abuse, take pictures of it and save it. If you have a tape recorder or something like that, when he starts to mentally abuse you with harmful words, record it. Let the police take care of it.

But if you want more professional help, go to www.safeyouth.org and there is a button on the top of the page where it allows you talk to a person working on that site live (through IM and it's annonymous)

drama_queen_101 answered Thursday January 25 2007, 2:22 pm:
i had this problem 4 years straight. what you gotta do is talk to your mom and tell her how you feel. tell her that your unhappy and you want this to stop. help her realize that whats going on is NOT healthy. this going on in your life can cause you serious mental damage, like you will always be afraid of your dad or any guy and it might also perhaps affect your marriage if you ever do get married. talk to your dad and tell him your point of veiw in the situation. tell him that you love him but you dont want him to hurt you and your mom anymore. Offer fior him to get some help. and if he doesnt stop then talk to your mom about leaving him. well i hope everything ends up alright. hey if you need more help or advice, contact me at my email, stupidcupid12@verizon.net or my mysppace URL www.myspace.com/bonkersbritishbabe12 it seems like you need a freind that can help you right now. and im always here. =)

The only thing you can do is call the cops..as your mom has proof such as bruises and also tells the cops it happenging they can talk him away...You can also say he mentally abuses you...I wouldnt stand uo him because he could get mad and hurt you real bad
