    Abused and blackmail
    Since I was young, my parents have abused me in such a way that there had been scars, and wounds physically and emotionally. During these years my sisters have ran away at different times, and it had affected me, and my mum.
    Recently I ran away from home and a week later my mum was in life support.
    She is ill, and now, she's home but can not be stressed or she will be back in the hospital. Her medicine cost quite dear every few months.

    My father still abuses me, my mum has settled and had stop with the abuse because she wnts to live her last few days/months/years with something worth to remember, something happy I suppose.
    My dad still hits me, and it hurts cause I can't tell my mum, nor run away. Because I'd know my mum will round up in Hospital. So now, I can't do anything..

    Help?

    Wow, that looks really hard to deal with, If I were you I'd talk to a shool councelor, they can make it so your father stops because no parent should be hitting their kids, unless hey absolutely found it necessary and they deserved in which I see no reason why it would be. You shouldn't be treated like that even if it is yor parents. And don't worry about your mom, she'll be fine knowing your not abused anymore... even though when she finds out it might make her angry at your dad.

    It doesn't matter if she is going to be angry at my dad, he also use to abuse her. It's not like it's the first time I've been to the school counsellor. They did talk to him and after a week or two he said
    'don't en sook to your school or I'll beat you up till you die'

    Honey, it's time to tell someone that can help you, the police, CPS, and Aunt or Uncle, anyone, this can't continue for you or your sisters or you mom. It's up to you, you don't deserve to be treated like this.

    Good luck.

    It is a terrible feeling to feel trapped with no way out.

    Is your mother sick with depression or a mental or emotional illness, or does she have a terminal physical ailment?

    You know the sad truth IN MY OPINION is that if your mother is mentally ill, I don't think you have to sacrifice yourself on her behalf. It is your job in life to take care of yourself. If this is the case, I think you have to go to child welfare and get placed in a home that is safe for you.

    If you mother has a terminal physical illness, is it possible for you to just do anything to avoid starting a conflict with your father and wait it out till your mother dies? You will feel so good about yourself if you can be there for your mother in this case. Then, get help in finding a new safe home.

    Best wishes,

    Not if you do something about it. It's up to you honey, only you can change the outcome, only you have the power to do something about this. We can only offer you advice, we can't be there to help you in person. You've told us, now tell someone who can help you.
