A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

hi, i'm 13, and my mum is honestly after my life. she beats me up when she likes, she abusses me, then asks me to forgive her, well what does she think i can forgive her so esily. And the thing i hate most is i get beaten up mostly just cause of my brother, he swores he hits me, at times he gets really violent but my mum never seems to hear or see him doing anything bad to me, and he takes my mum side when she batters me up. When i say something to him i'm get hit by my mum but when he says something or does something bad to me then she ignores it. When i say i will call the police she beats me up and gets violent. She ties me up with a skipping rope,bring sharp knifes infront of me, cuts me, scratches me, and bites me with her teeth, gets a lighter right close to me face and threatens to kill me. She hits me when i cry.

Please help me, what can i do? (im scared to tell childhelpine)cause sometime she is ok with me but then she gets violent, i don't want my mum to go to jail cuase she is afterall my mum. is there any other solution then jail?

shandygirl agony auntGET HELP !! Go to the school Principle, or Teacher, or the Police. Take your pick. You have to let SOMEONE know what is going on, who can help you. If I lived near you, I would help you myself. Your mom & I would have a SERIOUS TALK!

A female reader, anonymous, writes (7 January 2008):

I believe you posted already a question here regarding your family's abuse like two months ago. I'm very preoccupied to see you are still in the same abusive situation. What you are going through is very serious. Your mother is very sick mentally and she cannot give you the protection and direction a girl your age needs. It doesn't matter if she is OK with you sometimes, that doesn't mean she has changed or is a person who's mentally prepared to help you lead a healthy life. You cannot trust her or your brother who's obviously disturbed also. Your responsability is to seek help as soon as possible. You have to take care of yourself or you'll become very sick with mental problems too. Stop thinking about your mother's well being, think about yours. Your mother needs help and you are not letting her receive it because you have not looked for help. You are living in a very dysfunctional and abusive environment and nothing good can come from staying there. I know you are afraid to do it but you should call the child help line as soon as possible for your family's sake. Wait until you are home alone or until everybody is asleep and please don't get caught. The sooner you get out of there the sooner you'll be able to satrt healing yourself. Help is available. You don't need to suffer anymore. Don't let your family manipulate you they are sick and will never change if you don't do something drastic. Please keep us posted. God Bless you.

Hello, I am so sorry about how you are being treated at home, that sounds so terrible. I was wondering if you could maybe phone childline or another helpline from a payphone or by making your number withheld (usually putting 141 before a phonenumber does this). This way you can get help and advice without them being able to trace your mother.

If not do you have any teachers you could talk to, or if you have a local Church you could go and talk to the priest/vicar as they are bound to confidentiality. I really hope you manage to get help with this, please write back on this site if you do so we know you are safe.

Good luck x

there's something mentally wrong with your mother, that is not normal behaviour.

Next time she hits you, push her back and tell her to stay away, or you'll call social services. she clearly has a mental problem entailing that when she hits you, she immediatly regrets it, but does not learn.

you do not want her to go to jail, fair enough but u shud tell sum1 about her

good luck

no mother should treat her daughter like that, can you think of any reasons why she might want to hurt you..? maybe she has something wrong with her that she has no control over which would explain why she is doing these things. but it is a bit odd that she only does it to you and not your btother. i think the best thing for you to do is for you to speak to someone you trust. you cant keep living like this you have to do something about it before it gets worse. good luck honey.. x

There is nothing to be scared about phoning childline. Lots of young people like you are in upsetting situations and by making that call you are supporting all of them too. Please try and be brave and speak to someone who is confidential and who knows how you feel. I assure you it will really help. You don't need to work out your Mums feelings but you do need to share what you are going through. By writing into this website you have already acknowledged that it is unbearable and wrong. If things get really bad please seek immediate help from a friend or neighbour. Your mum will be able to get help for her actions.

A female reader, Serinity United States +, writes (7 January 2008):

Serinity agony auntIs she bi-polar? Does she have borderline personality disorder? That's not normal behavior for any mother. Kind of sounds like she may have some deeper issues going on. Do you and your brother have the same father? Is your mom a single mom? Are you a trouble maker? Unless your mom is suffering from some sort of metal disability, there is no excuse for her to beat you, bite you, cut you, or hit you. You shouldn't have to live like that. Your mother should not treat you that way, she's your mom for god's sake. Sounds like you need to talk to someone. I know you don't want her to be taken away and/or arrested, but you should tell someone so if she is suffering from some sort of personality disorder, she can get the help she needs. Does she have any friends? You need to tell someone you can trust. Good luck sweetie.
