Verbally abusive Father, deliberately taunts, but makes sure he never hits.?
-
Ever since I was a little child my father deliberately provoked and taunted me. He would put me down whenever I didn't do what he wanted, and make me feel worthless. He would even hit me, stick soap in my mouth if I swore, and on one occassion spanked me 20+ times with a leather belt. As I reached adulthood this continued. Whenever I did something he didn't like (ie. drinking, or having sex) he would be pissed off for days until something made him snap and then he'd launch at me all out. Verbal abuse, physical, and so forth. I got so sick of it, I rang the police, and they asked if I wanted to press charges. I said no, and left it at that. It hasn't stopped though, he still does it, he still pushes me as far as he can, but purposefully makes sure he doesn't hit me. I honestly don't know what to do anymore, he won't shut up even when I leave the room or the house for a while, he has to follow me and keep yelling at me. I get so sick of it that I have thrown stuff at him just to try and make him shut up but now he threatens to call the police on me. Even though he's been purposefully doing it!! I'm also currently 10 weeks pregnant, and he hates that I'm not married, nor will I be marrying the father. So he is taking all of his anger out on me and making sure he doesn't hit me in the process. Please help, and please don't give me any american, or state advice as I'm in England

Answer:
Well, the only person who can stop this cycle of abuse is you. I'm sorry you're pregnant because that baby you're carrying is going to be brought up just like you were. Don't believe me? Where do you think your father learned his behavior from? He didn't learn it all on his own, that's for sure. It's likely he was abused as a child too. You need psychological counseling and you need to get out of that house for your baby's sake. I'd strongly recommend you save that child by putting it up for adoption. Then work on getting yourself out of that home.

do you think some counselling would help your dad obviously has some underling issues there. where is you mum in all of this if you don't mind me asking? i think its good he's trying not to hit you but if its only because your pregnant does that mean he's gonna stop restraining himself once the babys here, also is this the type of environment you want your baby to be bought up in? you need to figure out if staying at home is safe go to your local council office and get them to put you on emergency housing.
Get the hell out of there!!! Think of your baby girl. Get the hell out!!!
get away from him and write him out your life, you wont want someone like that around your child
