If your father has a history of losing his temper like this you should really consider seeking help. your right in thinking he could do it again to be honest. I know what your going through. I think you should wait and see how things play out - See if he apologises or shows any sign of remorse, just see how he reacts. he could realise he went too far and he might feel ashamed or guilty or whatever and maybe apoligise or act particularly nicer than usual as a show of remorse.

But if theres no sign of him regreting what he did the chances of him doing it again could be high.

I’m going to be honest, telling someone is the best thing to do. I would recomend an adult you trust that isnt family. a family member could confront your father and that would be a very big mess, trust me. there are organisations you can call too. I’d recomend getting the numbers of a few and at least saving the numbers to your mobile or writing them down.

what it comes down to is that you need to look after yourself and your siblings. No one should feel treatened by their parents. they’re supposed to protect you. not hurt you.

Take Care :)

like you should realy seek help ask your mom, and if you have an older brother like 18 or 21 you should ask him to try to sort things out and if your dad continues his rage fits you can call children line 08001111 or maby you can call the police if he becomes angry and brakes something and what did you tell your mum about the elbow and I hope it heals quickly OK

Answer #3

get your siblings and go stay with aunt or grandma let them know what is going on if that dont work then its time to call a line for help

Answer #4

You should go and tell one of the child and family services workers and see if they can do any thing about this because its not going to get better trust me. Yours truly, Demika Ray
