Adult Abuse: Helping a Partner?
I've known my romantic partner for nearly two months now and just yesterday he revealed that his father had punched him after coming home drunk one night; he's 20 and lives with his parents. After doing some research, I realise now that some of the other signs are there too, he said his Dad has called him useless and said that he'll never amount to anything.
How do I help him?

There are many websites dedicated to helping adult children cope with alcoholic parents. Encourage your partner to look at these websites. Your partner may want to try therapy to deal with this as well. He should move out of his parent's home.

Simply listen and help him through his difficult life. Hopefully he’ll become gainfully employed if he’s not already and move on. If he’s not making something of himself, his father is prob angry about that, but it’s not reasonable he abuses him physically and mentally. Counseling would help dramatically. Best not to move in together until he works some of these issues out (financial and job security)

I think he should get out of his home.and should do something for his future life.
