oh wow..that makes me really wonder. i hope i'll never be like my father. i hope i'll never think it's okay to treat a child or woman or anyone at all the way he treats me.
thank you all so much.

i'll post about my progress on this. this weekend we're going to my uncle's house (the one who encourages my father). if they try to gang up on me like they normally do i'll see if i can make them talk about it instead.
