Physical/Emotional Abuse

[blue666]

My family life has always been iffy. But last night my dad showed up at our house and he beat up my brother and threatened me. My mom was too drunk to do anything about it, they're both alcoholics. How can I get him to stay away? He threatened to kill himself when we told him to leave. I'm with a relative now but stuff like this has been happening more and more lately and I worry for my siblings and my mom.

Sounds like a police matter.

Call someone you trust and see if you can stay with them, and get the police into this, because this is illegal, no way around it.
Can't offer any other advice, because this has never happened to me. If it did, I'd quickly sink into fear, oppression and depression :(.

Hope things get better!

The only way around it is like people have said to contact the authorities, your parents (more so your father) need help and there's no other way to deal with it, if you're with a relative now they must know what's going on? See what they think should be done because your family can't carry on like this :hug3:

I think you should contact the police,sometimes just a warning is enough to keep people in line its sort of an eye opener,I hope your situation improves
