I have been gone for a while cause stuff was going ok. I went to a camp thing at EMU and hadfun. When i got home, it was only me and my mom and we were doing good, but then my dad came home and stuff started going bad, but m sisters came home w/ him too. Meagan (13) was ok but nicole (8) just started being mean. She knows how much i've been through, and she still insists on making me feel bad. My parents dont want to admit it though.

Well, I'm crying off and on right now, and i really think i'm getting sick of my life. i hate it when nothing goes right, and i end uip at the worse end. My dad called me stupid and got up in my face. he said if i ever talked back to him again that he'd hit me as hard as he could accross my face. I hadn't even said a word to him, Meagan was being mean and i ended up yelling at her to stop. My dad hates me, but doesn't admit it now. He told me that he wished i was never born. I'm so sick of this. I just want it to stop, but i don't know how to make it happen. I"M SO SICK OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!! Someone please help meunderstand the world and why my family hates me, every one exept my mom.

I told my friend, jennifer, that i felt bad and needed a hug in an email, but its not enough, and i cant tell her everything. I need some help and i just saw lori yesterday. Today has been a living hell for me tho. please help me out.

I don't know your situation but I am so sorry you are going through all of this. How old are you? What is EMU? Do you know about the boy's town hotline? They talk with girls too. There may be options for you depending on your age to met out of that situation so you will not be emotionally abused anylonger. Keep us posted.

Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to help you .. we will try our best:

YOUR MOM Loves you! What a blessing! You are so lucky there, be happy for that...
Your sister (8 years old) probably loves your dad and has chosen a "side to be", not a person to love or not love. I am sure, inside of her there is a light that one day is going to come on, she'll discover that is ok to love her dad and you too!! You wait and see.
YOUR DAD is probably dealing with some issues of his own too. It takes a lot of streight and courage to look inside ourselves. Pray for him so that he can open his heart and heal himself one day.

Lots of love
