I Am Experiencing Child Abuse?

2011-07-11 7:58 am
Okay, this will be my first time telling anyone most of this question, so... here I go.
It started a long time ago, farthest back I can remember being abused was about 6, big blur any farther back. My parents would both spank and use a belt to whip me, a very, very hard leather belt, folded in half.
Once in 5th grade, my "father" was picking me and my brother up from school, to walk home, except he had this motorcycle that he would ride. As it was after school, we had our backpacks on, he took my brother's backpack, and so I lightly tossed mine over (I was in 5th grade-couldn't have hurt at ALL) and it hit him, in the back, and I remember snickering, because it was the first time I ever did something bad, even on accident (no, I'm no Jesus, I had lied, etc. before) and he out and slugged my face. It hurt, really bad, and I was trying to hold back the tears. Luckily, one of my friends had seen what happened and told our teacher - I got called out the next day and told her "It was just something I had to deal with." along with being asked by my friend if that was my dad. I've never told ANYone, friends asked, and I just told them that it was something about school. Over the years since then, I just tried to be the "perfect little child" that they wanted, but, I'm imperfect, and so it was beating after beating after beating. He has even threatened me that he was going to "send me away to a reform school if I couldn't behave." And I was considering trying to get him to send me away, while curled up in the bathroom, the only room I have access to, with a lock, but thought of who would be there: future thugs and criminals of tomorrow, and it would be more of the same. My other two siblings are NEVER treated this way - never threatened or even touched. I've considered running away, I've considered suicide, but I have never actually done anything. I'm now a 15 year old (to-be) Sophomore in High School, the quietest kid you know, and about 30 lbs overweight, I believe to be because of what I've been through. Please help, and thank you so much for even going this far, by reading this. And by the way - Alias ForProtection isn't my real name.

You didnt mention anuthing about your mom, but you said "the perfect child THEY want" so does "they" include your mom? Does she know? I havent even told my mom but you could try telling yours.

Call child protective services. Better yet, get your parents to send you to a boarding school/study abroad so you can spend your last few years of high school away from them and disown them afterward. That is what I am doing because I am terrified of group homes.

I hope you are okay. If it ever gets violent, forget what I told you and just call 9-1-1.

God bless you.

EDIT: You can still get your dad arrested for child abuse even if you don't have bruises. He still hit you. It doesn't matter if it was 50 years ago; it is still abuse.

I really feel sorry for you....for having such a family.

There is no need to suicide, keep your head up and live on, boy.
Do your the best and God would do the rest. Learn how to be independent from now, and stop relying on your Dad.

Oh wow, this is hard. You know there are certain homes you can go to fr a night or two to get away from your parents but they tell them where you are.
I've considered the sucicde thing and I'm saying DON'T do it!
I want to say tell someone but I'm in a slightly similar situation anf the only ones who know are my friends and they don't acknowledge it. You could still tell someone and get your house investigated.

If you're being beaten, the best thing you can do is tell a school counselor. I hate to say this: but wait until it happens again, and then you'll have the bruises as proof.

The thing to remember: this is not your fault. Some people become parents, and they're not always emotionally equipped to deal with parenthood. They don't always have the self-discipline and understanding necessary to be good parents. This isn't your fault.

You're simply on the receiving end. Talk to a counselor and get some help. Nobody should have to live with that, and nobody should have to choose between that and suicide. You have other, much better options available. No, they won't all be happy. Yes, you'll trade one set of problems for another. Such is life. But things can and will get better. Get some help.
