A couple years ago, I was abused by my parents but I am the type of person that doesn't take anything from anyone so when the start getting forceful and punching, hitting, pushing, and kicking me, I tried to get them off of me and fight back, Is this still considered abuse? Also, last month my brother came after me and I locked myself in my room and he came in and was pushing me really hard onto the ground numerous amounts of time, one of these times he pushed me and a glass fell over and shattered on the hard wood floors and I sliced my knee open and needed stitches and right after that, I was pushed and I fell and broke my finger which shattered the bones. Is this situation still abuse even though I pushed him off of me and was trying to hurt him back? I called the cops after the fight with my brother. Was I out of line for doing so? I NEED ANSWERS.

get out of there. call the cops, tell them you cant put up with that **** anymore. maybe you can go to a family members house or a friends house. you shouldnt have to put up with that. that is definetly abuse even if you fight back, you have the right to try to defend yourself if you are being attacked. im sorry you have this problem and i hope everything works out for you.

Sounds like your family could benefit from some professional counseling. Of course you were not out of line for calling. If you are getting hurt, it needs to stop.
The emotional damage from abuse can last a lifetime. Do your family a favor and be honest with authorities.

Wow, we got lots in common girl. My ex roomie(a guy) was fighting with me one night and pushed me and broke my thumb. I didnt know it was broken the next day but he convinced me to got to the ER and when i got there they said it was shattered in about 30 pieces. and i didnt call the cops that night but my neighbors did cause they heard us and he went to jail when the cops saw my hand. It is abuse, brother or not. I am also like you and will fight back. Hell I was about to beat this f***er with a bat that night.(after the thumb thing) Dont put up with the **** and stay strong.

It certainly is still abuse providing you were only fighting back and using as much force as is doomed necessary to protect yourself. This sounds like a very dysfunctional family, perhaps some form of counseling is needed for all involved.

what you do when you fight back is not abuse. what they are doing to you is. anytime that you feel endangered, you should call the cops. you were not out of line at all. you did the right thing. second of all, you should get out of that place ASAP. nobody should put up with getting hit and abused. don't EVER feel like you are in the wrong when you fight back. you are just defending yourself. just get out of the place quickly. good luck to you hun, and ill be praying for you.

omg... first of all if u do really bad things or say bad things a lot then i think that u're parents maybe thought that u deserved it but if u didnt do anything too bad and they hit u then u should tell the cops becuase something dangerous could happen.....
and when u're brother hits you... u have to still call the cops becuase hes not u're fatehr and its REALLY bad if he cut your knee or u broke your finger.....
and when you fight back its called self deffense for u but ALWAYS abbuse for them...
sometimes if maybe u talk to family members about this (like grandmas grandpas uncles aunts) then they could keep u safer then u're parents..

A. In maximum houses a mom is extra in all likelihood to abuse a baby than the daddy. it truly is documented truth. really in a small quantity of cases is it both mothers and fathers or a ascertain and SO mutually doing the abuse. B. Its organic instinct to wrestle lower back and revolt hostile to abuse. many cases you'll locate a baby will deliberately push buttons to set off abuse. If the really interest you receive is adverse finally you'll settle for adverse interest as accepted. it truly is a sad vicious circle and in no way the baby's fault. inspite of the indisputable fact that the baby has been taught that they are going to recieve interest in the journey that they act out. also a baby will wrestle lower back and say issues even as being abused as a way of having some outlet for his or her frustration. If someone were consistently hitting you i might want to assume you to yell and make contact with names or wrestle lower back. we are able to assume a similar from little ones. regrettably this frequently leads to extra extreme abuse. C. one and all human beings has the duty to helpless little ones to end and record abuse. mom, father or stranger on the line makes no massive difference. in case you believe real abuse you want to step in. in case you do not you may want to besides be the guy commiting the abuse. D. some human beings regrettably have the concept it doesnt result them in the journey that they arent the only doing the hitting. They dont see the fee abuse has on society, they ignore concerning the pleas those little ones challenge for help, and they dont favor to change into in touch. CPS has change right into a unclean be conscious to many human beings. Even worse is those who say my pal or better 0.5 is a sturdy human being yet she hits her baby. those who abuse little ones desire help. each so often it takes someone intervening to get them that help. it truly is a topic i'm very enthusiastic about. I easily have anger subject matters. I chosen to in no way be abusive. I easily have a help device in position and guidelines I stick with so as that i seriously is not abusive to my little ones. I attend anger managment help faithfully. If i can make that step each person can. And Im extremely drained of the justifications human beings ought to condone abuse. I volunteer complete time at a battered women human beings's preserve. The abuse and excuses I see on a daily basis might want to knock maximum folk flat from organic marvel.

That day , my dad tried to beat me again, had been beating me since im ard 7 years old, im 24 now, i took the phone and told him if he is going to touch me again, im going to call the police, he stopped, was very sad and angry. The answer to your question is, if you are bullied, no matter at home or anywhere, seek help, and make sure the person never bully you again, don't have to stoop to his level to get back at them, just seek help, im sure when they beat you up , there are marks, just show the marks to the police , and they will do something about it.

you were not out of line one bit, and if you are being attacked for no reason, yes it is still abuse, regardless of whether you fight back or not, I would see if you could go live with some other relatives, call social services, or get yourself removed from that situation
