Nothing can be done until you're ready to share your feelings.

This is for barbie chick, But what hotline? I don't know any hotline.

Hotlines are a great idea. They are anonomys and don't appear on a phone bill. There is virtually zero percent chance your father will figure out that you have been on the phone with these people. These hotlines can also give more professional advice on how to deal with this.
The hotlines vary by country, and region...

Where do you live?
City, Country will do...

I'm sorry to hear that is happening to u but u need to tell some one, I'm not going to lie but your dad probebly will get in trouble. But u need to tell some one because no one deserves that.

Charlotte, North Carolina.

Try calling,

800 662-7030

This is a hotline for youths in personal crisis. They could probably help a lot in your situation. It is a 24 hour line, so you can call anytime.
The number I gave was for North Carolina. If for some reason it doesn't work (no reason it shouldn't) then you can try these national hotlines:

Childhelp USA®
National Child Abuse Hotline
1-800-4-A-CHILD
24 Hours a Day

Child Abuse National Hotline
1-800-252-2873, 1-800-25ABUSE

National Youth Crisis Hotline
National Youth Development
1-800-HIT-HOME (1-800-448-4663)

National Runaway Switchboard
This hot-line is a referral service for youths in personal crisis.
1-800-621-4000

Good luck, and keep us updated on how things go.

Thanks so much for you help everyone.

Dad hit me last night,
Just got home dad is still at work,
Running away for good,
Im not even joking,
Goodbye everyone!
Wish me luck <3

Well good luck I guess, though that's not a very smart thing to do. You're young and stupid so the saying goes and u don't realize what could happen to you out in this big bad world. I wish u wouldve stuck around and toughed it out and got help.

Yeah,
I guess good luck...

Think about going to other family though...

I really don't think this is the best way for you to solve your situation. I really don't think you would do well on the streets, as nobody would.

Where do you plan to go?

What does your cousin jj think of it?

Have you talked with your aunt and unlce yet, or called those numbers?

Running away should be a LAST RESORT, and I don't think you have exausted all your resources quite yet.

Yeah, good luck, if you end up reading these, just remember be careful and go to someone you can trust... The world is a truly scary place.

The whole point of the counsilor is to help u try to get a solution or to help u see things clearer
If u don't do anything then things can get worse
Abuse starts with a backhand and can end up with u in a grave

Think about your safety

Maybe all your dad needs is anger manegment classes but if he doesn't get the help he needs both of u will suffer

I hope she comes back to read this... and I suppose it's already too late? I don't know, I've actually never heard of many kids who have ran away from home nowadays. I may be totally wrong, but that's just me =\

I do too... I've thought about all this a few times since, just wondering where she is right now. But, unfortunately, there isn't anything we can do.

Well at the very least we can swear to ourselves that we won't push a child to do this and that we'll help whenever something similar happens

Wow, you poor thing. I have all ways looked up to my dad, and I guess it makes me sad to hear any say that they are afraid of someone who is supposed to love you no matter what you do. Listen it isn't normal for a father to be hitting his daughter, my dad hits me, but its only when I'm being a dumbass, and I'm also the same size as him, but your dad hitting you is different, its out of anger. What I would do is go up to him, like during dinner, and explain to him, rationally, that you honestly think that he has anger problums, and explain to him why he shouldn't hit you, if he lashes out at you call the police.

Hopefully she comes back and lets us know how things are going.

What I sense could be that your dad sees 'him' in you and often when people see themselves in someone they take their hurt out on them. Like your dad sees you 'getting smart with him' and he lashes out at the fact he hates that in himself. You might not even be getting smart with him but that is the way he perceives it.
You need to catch him on his good time and tell him dad we need to talk things through when we are in a good mood so that hopefully we can come to an understanding where we don't end up in these fights. Use 'we' and 'I' a lot, avoid using 'you' or it will trigger him to get defensive and in his combat mode.

You have to tell someone. If there is evidence of abuse you will be placed somewhere safe. It may sound scary but you will be safe and your dad will get the help he needs. Have you thought of telling a family member? Like an aunt, uncle, or grandparents they will be able to help you and your father. If your scared it could get worse your right but that's only if he doesn't get the help he needs!

U have to tell an adult you trust it sounds like your still at skl so you could tell your teacher or your bestfriends mum or anyone but you have to tell someone this isn't right

It is really not okay for him to do that to you! The best thing I think you should do is talk to someone about it, someone you trust ( most likely an adult!)
