My dad has a huge temper. I used to get hit all the time. Its been okay for a while, I havn't gotten hit at all and the mood has been okay, but he still has a horrible temper. Tonight he got mad at my sister and threw her into her room for "rolling her eyes at [him]." What can I do? I already told him tonight, after he told me to mind my own business, that he has a temper, we all know it, and the it would get him in trouble sooner than later. Besides making these threats, what else can I do? I hate him for being physical with me, and I need him to stop for my sister's sake. Both my sisters were crying afterwards, like I used to do after he would hit me. I can't even cry anymore, thats the way he is, and he still hasn't changed. As I went to counseling for my depression, he was good. I thought he changed. I was wrong. After I stopped therapy, he was an @$$ again. Well, any advice? Like I said, I can't even get emotional about it anymore, but he needs some help before my sister gets scarred emotionally too.
