My father is an …

..
I don’t wanna complain since I’ve been in a way worse place.
My dad used to hit me almost every day.
Now he got scared cause I told some social worker.
I thought everything would be over once I’d get him scared but now he’s starting to call me names again and bullying and he isn’t exactly afraid of physical contact anymore, if you know what I mean:P
I was sooo happy when it finally stopped, all the bullying and hitting.
My dad was actually my dad and not my little brother.
That lasted for a few months now he’s turning into his old annoying self and he’s hurting my mom with this too.
I feel like I’m turning into this depressed kid again who has headaches every single day cause of too much worrying.
Please, someone, tell me what I can do to stop my dad/stop caring this much about what my dad thinks of me.

hmmmm, in that case I’m not sure :P But the facts are: He hurts you, and its effecting you both physically and mentally. You need to take action and call the social worker and take it to the next level. Go and stay with family or friends, ANYTHING! He need to stop the abuse!

I have nowhere to go.

I don’t really know what action you could take because you have to really know your situation and I also have to say you make my problems look miniscule. All I can say is that you have to do something, you can’t sit back and take it, because you shouldn’t have to put up with it.

Don’t do anything drastic without really considering it first, that’s all I can say mate. But you have every right in the world to complain about this, you’re the one in the unfair position here.

I suggest you should get a pet maybe dog. A pet will keep you and your dad busy and make you stick to a routine. This will discipline your life and leave no time to think or do the negative things. Take your dad to a church or a religious place of your religion. A family which prays together stays together. Always give more than you receive. do not take any favours from your dad but keep doing favours for him. helping him out with the garden work, fishes clening the car etc. Try to make him guilty and let us watch if he changes. Nothing wrong in trying it.

We already have 2 dogs, my dad loves one of them more than me but that doesnt seem to make a differnce either:P
My dad goes to church every sunday unlike me since I stopped believing a while ago.
But thanks for the other advice:D
