advice....

I am Megan. I live with a family, mom, dad and bro. My dad works like all the time. And my mom likes to yell at me for retarded stuff like theres a spot on her counter thats like an ice cube thing. She hits me and beats me and yells at me over that...no someone tell me im not the only stupid one here that thinks thats overated or what? if you have any advice hook me up please!

Really J, what point was that to say..?

Megan: Look. Things as meage a an ice cube on a counter are nothing for a mother to beat her child over. In fact, nothing is an excuse. That is called abuse. Granted, the other person was right when they mentioned financial issues. parents do tend to get stressed out when there is a cash shortage. I would know, because our household is dealing with some similar issues. My grandmother just passed away and we're stuck with the $20k she had in bills and my parents have to pay off the loan they took out for my brother's college. Now, my parents have never hit me, but there have been screaming bouts. Not just between me and them, but also between them. Best thing to do is to catch your mom when she's calm and in a decent mood, and calmly and maturely talk to her about how you feel. She loves you because she's your mom. She might not realize she's hurting you. Let her know..

Have you told anyone what she's doing to you? If you havn't, you should. I used to have this problem with my dad. If you tell her to stop and she doesn't, you need to get the authorities involved. I don't normally like the idea of getting the authorities involved, but this is the type of situation you really should. No matter how much you love her you need to do something. Parents aren't suppose to abuse their children.

It shouldn't matter who I am... This thread is about her. Not you. Not me. Frankly, I believe you are failing to see the major problem here, kid. This girl is getting beaten by her mother. That under no circumstances should be tolerated. Yet you want to turn it around on her like she's being selfish or conceited... As I see, you have been going from thread to thread making light of other peoples' situations and spotlighting your own as some form of pity party for you. Post to help, not to ruffle peoples' feathers..

dont put up with that crap. does your dad kno? if he doesn't tell him. if he doesn't do anything about it then as soon as you have a bruise (because you need proof) go to cps and show them. they'll take care of it.

"Think about it hunni. I dont have parents. So I dont know what to say. I just think that yo should be grateful you DO have some..."

Having a dad that is never around is sorta like that and a mom that abuses you i would rather my parents dead. That is abuse tell someone.
