You should try Illinois. They would probably bust your dad for that. No, I'm not joking. When a coworker of mine has her child taken from her because said child slipped in a tub (yes I witnessed it first-hand, with the coworker AND her husband and testified as such) and bruised his head. The doctor reported her to the Child Services...and they took her child and placed him under supervised visitation rights with my coworkers parents.

It sounds like some sort of psychosis, doesn't seem likely you will convince her honestly. Maybe her father beat her and she thinks all fathers are abusive.

Kinda unfair on your dad though to be honest? Doesn't sound like he deserves that kinda treatment. Does he know she thinks that way?

You could always kill your mother in an absolutely brutal fit of rage. I'd do it to mine, if given the chance...

But, then again, I was on the shit end of physical abuse from my father (and mother, too -- but this is another tale for another day!) and she wasn't aware of what he was doing until after he died. This is kind of the reverse...

But yeah: First, you have to find out why she thinks he abuses you. Can't help you out with anything unless you know why she thinks that. If you don't want to ask out of the blue...talk to her...then slowly lead into it. Or, if she just brings it up, then bluntly ask her. Either way, ye have to find out why she thinks that...

If she gives you no reason, then have her committed.

Edit: I am either semi-blind or completely retarted. I see you said the reason in your post why she thinks that...

Is that what she said exactly? Find out more from her. Beat her verbally, if you must.

Call me paranoid, but if she wants to break up, but really needs a good reason. She offcourse has a reason, but she doesen't think it to be enough and if you were abused by your father that would be reason enough for almost anyone.

I'm propably wrong, but you never really know.

Relationships are changing all the time. Something is on your mothers mind which needs investigating and I think the best way to bring up the situation is with both of your parents over dinner or a 'family meeting'. Talking out in the open and expressing feelings should help clear some air over what is happening. Discuss with them on these so-called beatings and also ask about their relationship. If you have as close a relationship with your parents as you claim, they should be willing to sit down and help you out with whatever is on your mind, thus, helping them to solve some of their own problems.

The only thing here Tazz, is that we're only hearing your interpretation of events, with hardly any details. I mean, there's verbal abuse, just as much as physical abuse, and sometimes abuse for one person, isn't abuse for another.

Your reaction of verbally abusing your mother until she wouldn't talk to you, makes me think you're being a wee too bit defensive. You really should think a little bit more about what your dad says or does that's making your mom go into a tizzy. Don't just write it off as completely emotional.

Usually, there is some root cause. This cause might be the fact that your mom had abuse issues when she was growing up, or something unrelated to your father, but there might be something more to this than you're giving merit.

YOU'RE ALL MISSING THE POINT, HERE! You should milk this for all it's worth! Go for sypathy points with your mother, tell her things like "Oh, Dad abusing me is so bad, etc, only thing that can make it better is an Alienware computer. Now." Jeez, thought it would've been obvious, really... Or, y'know, just screw with both their minds. Your choice...

Dark Black: If he did say he was then he would go through hours of useless theropy.

I can only think of one reason she keeps bothering you. She believes your in denial. Or maybe you are in denial. I don't know. I have no idea why she started this anyway. Maybe an un-explained buise from you falling down and she thought it was abuse.

I just don't know.

Hours of theropy is *worth* Alienware! Having your legs cut off is worth Alienware, dammit!

And I'd say it would be your mother who needs the theropy. She is pretty messed up. Unless you really *are* being abused and you *are* in denial! Hoe noes!!! *gasps*
