this is abuse. Your dad can handle these situations a million other ways by not using physical contact. I would talk to an adult or teacher you are close to, and try to find some help. Dont be afraid to tell them what your dad is doing- if you dont put a stop to it- his abuse towards you will only get worse

This is definetly abuse. Your dad should know better than to handle situations in a violent manner. And the fact that he's nice and acts like all is forgotten lets me know that he thinks he can get away with it. Like you said before, this isn't the only time that he has done it. Well it should be the LAST! I beg u, talk to someone that you know and trust and if they think ur being to harsh, talk to the police. I guarentee they will be on your side about this! Also, wether ur 5, 15, or 20 doesn't matter. He should keep his hands off YOU and your BROTHER. If not for yourself, do it for your brother. Tell someone! If you need to talk email me. I am more than happy to listen!

It's abuse. There are other ways your father could have handled the situation.
You and your brother are being abused, and you need to speak with an adult that you trust to help you with this situation. Don't let your father know that you are going to talk to someone about his beating you because if he finds out he will beat you again.
Talk to a school counselor or the police, but do it without your father knowing about it.
You need to get help so that you and your brother can be safe.

you're being abused because your getting slapped contained in the face for rolling your eyes. you want to get your self and your brother out of there if he's hitting you worse for such issues as this. Your dad can bypass to penitentiary for that so try talking to a counselor which could be functional you in this difficulty.

You're being abused. If you have marks still the police can definitely do something about it. If not its your word against his, but you do have your brothers word on your side.

This is definitely abuse. It does not sound normal to me. At 15, your Dad should be able to talk to and reason with you and not have to resort to violence.
