He hit me, and I hit back?
Me and my dad have never really had a nice relationship, so today we got into a fight about something really stupid and he chased me half way up the stairs, grabbed my hair and just started punching me in my stomach and by my ribs. So my immediate reaction was to hit back, so I punched him in the face three times, And he let go of me and I just ran upstairs to my room. I'm still upstairs in my room, and I'm scared to go downstairs. He hits hard and I really don't want to go down there but he's screaming at me from the kitchen saying "YOU BETTER BE TO SCARED TO COME DOWN HERE, BECAUSE I'LL F*KN KILL YOU "
UGHH I CANT STAND HIM!
I would call my mom and tell her to come over, but my phone is on the charger in the kitchen,
should I go downstairs and TRY to make peace with him?
or should I just go to sleep and try to talk to him in the morning?
thanks
yeahh I'm okay, it doesnt hurt that much anymore he only got me once in the stomach the rest were on my sides
thanks for asking though :]
I really really really don't want to call the cops, I don't want to start a major thing out of this...ehhhhh idkk..

okay you have to forget the fact he's your dad, STAY IN YOUR ROOM.
that wasn't a spanking he was giving you, he was hitting you to hurt you; basically that's abuse.
STAY IN YOUR ROOM.
in the morning, when he's asleep or left for work, then go get your cellphone.
no matter what you did, you do not deserve to be hit and hurt.
just STAY IN YOUR ROOM!

Even if you call the police, where do you think this is going to end up? At most your dad will spend the night in jail, and in a week you will be sleeping under the same roof as him again. Do not sh-it where you eat, but it sounds like you already vomited out of your a-ss all over your home.
And by the way, telling a microscopic population of the internet users who happen to come across your profile page that you "smoke weed and are cool for doing it" is a bit cheesy. If you want to get ill do it for yourself and let everyone else mind their own business, it's really not that admirable of a thing to broadcast.

STAY IN YOUR ROOM. DO NOT GO DOWN STAIRS. THIS WILL ONLY GET WORSE THE LONGER YOU DON'T REPORT IT. Its very hard to turn someone in that you have been with whether its family or someone else. But you have to, or it won't stop. Does your mom have a computer that you can IM her or e-mail her. I would be there in a heartbeat or less if you were my daughter. No one has the right to treat you like that, NO ONE. It took me a long time to figure that out since my dad hurt us, and I married an abusive man. The minute he threatend the kids we were out as soon as he went to work. Not before, not until it was safe to contact someone, since my phone was taken. Don't poke the bear! STAY IN YOUR ROOM--DO NOT LET HIM IN. Get help, do you have anyone at all that you can IM-- ask them to call your mom and the police. DO IT NOW. If you need to, e-mail me and I will call your mom and the police.

You should really call the police, or a close relative. If you can't get your phone though, wait until morning and tell your mom!
That's abuse, and it's dangerous to be in the same house as someone with a temper like that. Do not go downstairs. He still might be very angry.

Stay upstairs all night. Don't go to sleep, because that isn't the best thing to do. Stay in your room online, and if you have myspace, facebook, or AIM, contact one of your friends and tell them to call your mother. I understand you might not want to call the cops because you love him, but stay upstairs all night until like 3am, or until he's asleep. And then quietly go upstairs, get snacks and the phone, and call the police or get your mom. Good luck! No one deserves to be abused.

Some people are telling you to go to the police and I agree but I can see why you might not be able to do that. He is your father and you probably love him. But, please remember that the longer you let it continue the worse it will get! I would go to sleep, wake up early (maybe in the middle of the night if you are really scared) and call your mom. She will know what to do and will definatly help you. Good luck!

call the police, you feel threatenedand you were abused by a parent, they can get you out, if you don't have a phone at all try to get help from a neighboor, don't go downstairs untill he is not in the kitchen or help comes, don't try to make peace, he may kill you, be careful

I would seriously consider calling the police. That kind of hitting is really violent. In your position, right now, I would just go to sleep; stay upstairs in your room. Tommorrow, he, hopefully and probably, will forget about it. At that time, contact your mother and let her know what happened to you. Hopefully things get better! Good Luck...

I have the same relationship with my father.
Give him time to cool off. Maybe an hour or two. Then maybe call your mom, or Child Protective services.
Are you okay? I Hope you are. I think we all have that reaction without thinking and hit back, we think it's self defense.
Maybe find a phone somewhere upstairs, if you can!

I know you're very worried about losing your dad; even if he does abuse you but that's very ****** up. I'm sure he has NO right to do that, try to contact a friend overline and get them to call your mom for you and tell her that you need her to come get you. I wouldn't go downstairs. It just sound unsafe to me....good luck though, i'm sorry to hear about your dad.
If he hurts you bad enough live with your mom or call the cops.
