Stepdad is so annoying!
My stepdad handles me very roughly. It's not what I would call physical abuse it just upsets me and hurts sometimes. Either he will pull me up too roughly by yanking me up and pulling me, or he hits me on the head. Whenever he hits me on the head, which he does in plain sight of my mum who does nothing, I ask him not to. I gather enough courage to say "don't do that again, don't hit me again. And no matter how much I say it he will reply "I just did, it doesn't matter what you say because I've already done it, it doesn't matter" I have to eventually drop it because it won't go anywhere! Does that not sound immature to you? The fact that I'll ask every time to not hit me and he does?
Although I could have it a lot worse, I don't know what to do. I can't say anything to my mum about it she just replies "I'll speak to him, but he won't listen" or "you tell him" despite that whenever I tell him he never gets the message. The only person who responded correct was when my great aunt saw him hit me over the head once and told him he shouldn't do that to me. But he still does. I'd understand if it was for discipline but I'm too old now and I don't do anything to warrant being hit over the head.
Can anyone give me advice on what to do?
Ok listen I'm in your exact position right now as a 19 year old in college. I dread having to to return home to his worthless, egoistical, **. My advice is (since I'm not exactly sure how old you are) to spend as much time out of the house as possible, volunteer, get references for a resume, get a job (Ideally you should keep this secret from step-fuhrer), start being independent, you essentially have to hit the ground running once you turn 18. Don't make the same stupid mistake I did, being lazy and not doing anything with my time. Try to move in with a relative or room with someone (Craig's List, Check it out). At the end of the day CASH IS KING!!! in order for you to put an end to this nonsense. My deepest sympathies AK
Call the cops on his **! God bless you little angel!
