i am currently locked in my computer room, my mother is an insane bitch . she has been beating me since i was 9 and i am now 15, i have 3 siblings ( 6 , 8, 13) who she hits aswel, she doesnt work so she stays here all day. just there, my 6 year old brother dropped his dinner plate and she called him "a stupid fucker" at the top f her voice. a couple of names she called me today :
spotty face
stupid prick
bollocks
cunt
fucker
stupid fucking ass
and "im going to fucking kill you"
my dad works from 8 to 6 and most days he is not around to see the mass abuse that she gives us, our house is crazy. most of the time all of us would be crying as she attacks us with shoes, wooden spoons, mops, anything. when he gets home we try to tell him but she makes up bullshit lies and he believes her. i feel like i have nowhere to go and nobody to talk to as that fucking tramp keeps lying and telling my granparents that i call her nasty names and makes me out to be the bad guy. i know there is something wrong with her. i want her to fucking die.
i could go on all day here about this as she is currently out of the house but when she comes back she will be screaming at me and eventually when i come out i will be beaten (it has happened before) so i am in a rush to get this all done before she comes back. if she dropped dead right now i would spit and laugh at her dead body.
i am severly depressed because of her and she has deprived me of a childhood, i would highly appreciate it if you could help me out, thank you,
matthew.

Hi matthew,

You’ve been really brave to come on and tell us what has been happening.

It seems like your mother has been very abusive towards you and your siblings. Naturally you are finding this difficult. No-one has the right to beat and abuse and this is against the law. We are concerned to hear this is happening to you and your family and that its been such an upsetting time for you all.

It sounds like things are very difficult as your dad and grandparents listen to your mother. We are here for you anyway at this hard time while you feel you can’t talk to anyone else.

You write that you are feeling depressed and crying. This is understandable considering what you are going through. It natural to feel depressed sometimes but if it’s all the time or is severe like you said then you may need professional help and you have a right to seek help from a doctor or a counsellor. How to do this is explained in Getting Help under the Support Tab on the main page. Also the ISPCC which runs Childline sometimes works directly with young people and may have some support services in your area – have a look at Teenfocus on www.ispcc.ie

You’ve asked us to help you. At Childline we can only help if you give us your full details. You should only do this if you’re sure. If you want to us to we can contact a social worker or the Gardai to get you help and support and maybe get some help for your mother as well.
.
Remember you can keep contacting Childline through email Text and phone to speak in confidence. You can text Talk to 50101 or phone 1800 666 666 if you wish.

Take care of yourself.
