i would tell an adult atleast. tell your teachures. they can do everything that is needed. they are trained to deal with family desturbances. i hope you are all right. noone should have to deal with problems like that.

I'm sorry this happened to you.  If he's been to your home, CALL THE POLICE.  Do not mess around with this.  If you live with your parents, TELL THEM RIGHT AWAY.  If you're on  your own, TELL THE POLICE.  \n\nThank you for the heads up, but please, protect yourself!

I am sorry to hear all these stories abt child abuse. Nicky, if you think you need someone to talk to, speak to a professional. They will be able to help you sort things out with yourself. The impt thing to do is to make peace with yourself...Understand that you are different from your mum, and that no matter what, you will be stronger than her too. Whatever reasons she had that cause her to abuse you like that will not be happening to you again...so let go, and trust in the Lord that He will bring you peace and happiness. God Bless

Tell her what you just told us.\nThat she ignored your feelings and betrayed your trust.\nTell her that you're very hurt by what she did and that she needs to respect your feelings, regardless of your age or the fact that you're "just her daughter".  You're still a human being like the rest of us.\nTell her that if she continues to betray your trust, you may end up not telling her anything at all.  No mother wants to be left out of their child's life, right?  Tell her that you want to be able to share ANYthing with her, but you feel that you can't now because of what she did.\nThis will probably make for a loooooong discussion, so make sure you're sitting down. ;)

I'm sorry for what happened to you.  You should see a counselor.  I believe that everything happens for a reason.  Its a bad thing that happened to you.  But now you can find ways to have it not happen to you again and other people.  Please with the information and awareness you can provide you can save another from this sort of incident from happening.  Take some self defense classes and make this world better for you and me.  Report this crime to the authorities so that this does not happen again to an unsuspecting person like yourself....

How is she abusing you? And you need to tell someone. Tell your school principal or call the police. Tell someone.

I know not the laws of India but would assume you contact your local police, as anywhere else. I'm curious as to why you're so concerned about "exposing" yourself, however. Do you feel personally threatened? Are the police likely to name you as the complainant? Can you not make the complaint anonymously?\n\nYou must do as you think best, of course, and it's easy for me to sit here and advise you. But sometimes in life we have to stand and be counted, do we not? In this instance, who is looking out for the safety and welfare of the battered wife? It is clear by your question that this abuse is troubling you. Please act!

You need to be a friend to your friend.  If your friend is being hit, kicked punched or made fun of or teased or threatened in anyway tell your friend to tell a counselor at school or the police.  Also, if the mother is spending the money on drinking instead of buying food or doing laundry or getting clothing for your friend then she needs to tell the counselor or teacher or the police.  Good luck

the best thing to do is talk to someone you love and trust. Maybe your parents/gaurdian. Youve been through something terrible and you need some support around you and go tell someone immediately. Go to the police and have him charged. Its the best thing to do because you can prevent him from hurting someone else. Its scary but its the right thing to do

You have to tell someone. If you are worried about the way your Mum may react you need to get another adult family member that you trust  to talk to her. If there is no family member that you trust then maybe a teacher etc. I can tell you as someone who was raised with abuse you need to break the cycle. Silence will not solve this problem. hope this helps and I hope even more that this problem is resolved

Oh my god.  You poor baby, he is doing you like this?\nDo you have family?  A brother or a father, mother?  If you do, first thing you need to do is Tell Your Family!!! If you do have a brother or a father, you tell them, then just step away and let them take care of the situation.\n\nNow, If you do not have a family, and if you cannot protect yourself NOW, then you must find people who will protect you NOW.\n\nNo person is allowed to touch you without your full permission.  No One! If you were my family or friend, I would take care of his sorry @ss and all his sorry @ss friends.  \n\nGo on line and look up in your community, your city, for the police department, and if you are not comfortable calling them for help, just call and ask for the number for ABUSE SUPPORT.  They will be able to help and protect you.\n\nThen, honey, you will be happy.  \n\nDon't worry, just do right for yourself.\n\nBe careful.  Good luck.  We all love you.

Yes, I think it is important that you tell your mother. If she doesnt believe you and/or she doesn't help you, you need to tell someone else. A minister, councler, family doctor, or any adult that you trust. And you keep trying until someone listons and the abuse stops. My heart is with you.

It's the same as everywhere; you or your b/f hurt her, you go to jail unless it's self defense and you'd better be able to prove it. I'm a former police officer and if you attacked her, I would arrest you. What you need to do is to talk to the girl's parents. She sounds obsessive and that can be dangerous. You need to document every offense, possibly video tape her doing it or recording her with a hidden tape recorder, which, in Texas, you can legally do as long as one party in the conversation is aware that it's being taped, i.e. you or your boyfriend talking to her. If she shows up at your home, call the police. If her parents refuse to put a stop to it, go to the school principal if you are all in the same school and if need be, the police but do not lay a hand on her unless she attacks you. Where do you think sympathy might lie in a court of law? With you and your b/f who are older, or what they would consider a child misbehaving? Right or wrong, sympathy will be on her side because of her age. You both have to be the mature ones in this case. Don't try to solve it on your own. Do tell her when you speak to her that you are going to call the police or go to her parents and if that doesn't work, do as I instructed. It's the safesty way for anyone. There is no excuse for violence unless you are protecting yourself or someone else from a physical threat. Good luck.

Cool it!  You are still young, and your mother is still your mother and she LOVES you!  You were wrong to go off on her like that.  She knows you are a teenager and teenagers go off easily with little provocation.  But your rage and rants still hurt her.  No adult would to that to a parent.  It was still an adolescent rant.\n\nNow, go take a hot soaky with lavender bubbles and listen to some mellow music.
