mom help: my mother punched me in the face multiple times. - Help.com

Go out and get yourself either a cheap video camera, or a webcam. If you have a video camera, hide it somewhere and start recording. If you have a webcam, start recording, then shut off the monitor (screen). Do something mundane and undeserving of punishment as you did here, then make sure you’re in view of whatever camera you set up. Once you have evidence, call the police. If you have a witness right now call the police. Nobody has the right to hurt you.

You need to report this to the police immediately! If you’re under 18 then your mother can be arrested for child abuse, and even if you’re older, she can still be charged with assult. Regardless of what you did, your mother should never NEVER hurt you in that way! She is obviously a disturbed person who is unable to control her anger. It is likely that she will hit you again (since it has happened in the past), so you need to take action before this occurs again. I do hope that she doesn’t do it again though.

As for what Mr. P suggested, that would be good if you think you concrete evidence. In fact, it would help you very much, but the only downside is that you’ll have to let her hit you again.

What’s your age?

19

how old are you my parents are the same too,
When i take an advice they told me to call to the police but im not good to do it.

But no one can hurt you.
Its not fair beacuse everyone forgets or do a mistake.

Good luck Dear friend.
and if your 19 years old you can get out of home.

You need to report this asap. This is NOT right and should not be happening.
At the end of the day she is your mother and is supposed to be the one caring for you. She may not be able to control her anger so by reporting it, authorites would get her help.

Good luck x

Call child support services after you get evidence.

You might not call child support because you live your mom, but you are old enough to get. And you shouldnt call child services because of you age but you should the police.

thank you all your advice is greatly appreciated

I’m 40 and my mother punched me in the face too, after calling me stupid numerous times! I’ve been in counselling 5 years and still the pain of a mother’s rejection is so intense. I suppose if I was a drug addict like the rest of my siblings perhaps she would have loved me as much as them.

Sad

phone the police on the *****, there no excuse ever for her to lay her hands on you, have her nicked for assault, before it get,s out of hand, or consider taking up karate, in 6 months time give her a bit of her own medicine, and take her out
