My dad beats me and my sisters and threatens us…
Im 17 years old now and I live with my parents and my 3 sisters, I’m the tird youngest. Its my first time posting so I don’t really know how to formulate this hahaha.
My dad is not the best, he does the bare minimum for our family and claims we would die with out him. He’s the type to get mad, scream, threaten to kill you, and if your eyes go the wrong way, or you say something thing back, or disagree with him or even just start crying, he comes running to you with a really mad face. Running to me to catch me to beat me. He slaps, he hits me with his feet’s, he pushes me around, he pulls my hair, takes objects as well to hit me, he even tried to strangle my little sister last time, and all this while screaming and threatening to kill us. This kind of moments usually happens 2 times a month and on a bad month, maybe 4-5 times. I don’t think me and my sisters deserve this, he start beating us not to correct our behavior, he just gets mad and has to put it on someone. It happend many times that I wake up to him screaming and some fighting sounds, he’s really bigger than all of us so he clearly takes advantage of it.
Recently, he threatened to do some thing so bad to me that he would go to jail, I quote: you know what I can do when I’m mad, and I promise I don’t give a Fuk if I go to prison or even die » all this because he saw me at the dollar store with a guy friend🥲. Since this incident, I really have been thinking about reporting my dad to cps or even the police. I haven’t done it yet because I’m lowkey scared that it makes the situation worst, but I don’t wanna be scared, what do y’all think? Should I keep up with my dad, fight back and handle it by myself, or report him?
