Firstly you need to realise that you don't deserve this. Think is there a way for you to get help? Maybe from a teacher at school, a friend's parent? Social workers? If you can, don't hesitate to get help because you deserve happiness and a good life

You must think about your own needs and values as a person. It is never okay to be abusive to anyone and there is never a good enough excuse to excuse someone of abusive behaviour. You need to speak out and seek support and help from professional people who are trained in this area. There are so many charities out there who are trained to help people with abusive parents. You do not need to put up with your abusive father, no-one deserves that and you do not have to tolerate it just because he is your father. You can always speak to family or friends for support and help.

If your father is abuse, this is harmful to you physically and mentally. Could you tell a trusted adult like another family member or a family friend or your school counselor? Your father could possibly need to get some help so that he can stop. Telling someone trustworthy is a good choice so that you can be safe. I want you to be safe and for you father to get the help he needs.

The best thing to do would most likely to be to tell a trusted adult, a counselor, or possibly contact a hotline. They may be able to help the situation.

You should definitely speak with someone. Your mom, the doctor, a psychiatrist or someone you can trust.

report him to the authorities and that will mean he gets the help he needs, or get him to a professional who can help

Tell someone preferably a police officer or teacher. They can take the steps to keep you safe. You never deserve to be abused; especially from someone Ne who is meant to love and take care of you.
