Is abuse allowed these days?

Do you think that just because someone calls themselves your father after marrying your mother allows them to be able to verbally attack you when they feel like it? Are they just automatically allowed to start hurting you when they are angry? Are you...

allowed to fight back? I'm confused at the rights of parents these days...I mean I know they are allowed to discipline, spank you, andget angry, but abuse is not allowed right? or is it today in society?

Dear jaytothemie14,
No abuse is not allowed. You need to first seek out the school counsellor unless you are being hit in any way then you must go to the police right now. Verbal abuse is just as bad but you can leave the room walk away and seek counselling and they can help you take the proper course. If he is hitting you then you can bet he is hitting your mother too when you are not there. Either way you must do something; you nor your mother should be exposed to this type of behaviour.
Sue...good luck

hay there well I reckon that it sux if step fathers come in to your life and use there power to abuse you I no what the out comes are of this and it realy sux trust me!!!!.X

abuse is never allowed. and if your mother is allowing it that's messed up to. I don't really know to much about the realtionsh'ip of your household as a whole but I can completely understand if when you are being verbally abused you scream back. I'm sure I would do the same. especially if the man isn't really even related to you... how long have they been together?

no no it can be right never ok I have been in it and its not good I am still little but hey no abuse is not allowed if your in it you should call someone thats not cool you dont deserv it please and yes you can fight back its called keeping your self safe from that person and it should not be allowed please tell me are u in it if so call someone and get out so I dont worry thats not good

hell no he should never be allowed to hurt you or abuse you. disciple you yes but not hurt you. you need to tell someone. does your mother no about this. you need to tell someone or call the police. I no exactly what you are going through I have an abusive mother. and no contact to my dad in washington. send me an update. dani xx
