I'm in a bad situation, what should i do?

Question

My grandpa has been treating us grandkids bad over these last years. My cousin, who is only 5, gets really scared around him when he's mad and so do I. What do I do to make this better?

Answer 1

I don't know how old you are, but I'm assuming you are young. This makes me scared. Bless you for asking for help. Continue to ASK for help until you get it! I assume you are going to school somewhere. Talk to a teacher or your principal and ask them to help you get in touch with the police or CPS (child protective services) to help you and your cousin. If you do not live with your grandpa, then tell your parent/guardian that your grandpa is treating you bad and tell them EXACTLY what he is doing to scare you and your cousin. If your guardian does not listen or refuses to help, then ask someone else. No child should ever be abused. Someone can help you. If you have access to a computer, I assume you have access to a phone. If you are with your grandpa and he is abusing you or cousin or scaring you, then call the police (911) and tell them what your grandpa is doing.

Answer 2

How does Grandpa treat you badly? It IS scary when grown ups make loud screams. Have you tried talking to your parents about this? If grandpa is just grumpy and makes noise, it is one thing..............even though it IS scary. But, if he is hurting you in any way, it is a really big matter that you need to tell someone you trust about. ALL you can do is to tell someone about how grandpa behaves. You cannot stop it.

Answer 3

you need to tell someone..an aunt ,a Friends mom anyone and everyone that you can trust until somebody does something..some people may discourage you and tell you you are exaggerating ,others may simply not believe you..if this doesn't work call your local police department when you have privacy to do it or tell a Dr or teacher all these professionals and many other have to report suspicion of abuse whether they believe you or not..You are very brave to come and ask for help tell ..if your parents don't listen or they aren't around don't give up...you should never be afraid or ashamed to tell how you feel

Answer 4

sounds like a bitter old man! stay away from for now! I'm tired of lets talk it out b/s! ppl these days are so hard headed!you cant even get one freakin word across! block all the people that has done you wrong in your life! you'll be less stress and drama free like me!!old people are more harder to reason with! just keep your distance !

Answer 5

Have you talked with your parents? I think you should try pulling your thoughts together and writing it down on paper. And just express how you feel. Then try to talk with an adult who can help you confront your grandpa or can confront him for you.

Answer 6

tell your parents how he is acting, explain that he is scaring the little ones. he may need to go to the Dr. for a complete check up. he may not even realize he is treating the grand kids badly and his behavior is scaring anybody.

Answer 7

hi this is angel, i think the best thing u can do is tell someone else u trust about the situation and how u feel about it. Im sure things will work out. good luck.

Answer 8

Wow, that sucks...

You should try telling him that?

No child should be afraid of their GRANDPA.

Tell him how you feel and put your foot down.

What does he do when he treats you bad?

Try talking to your other older family members about this, as well.


And if none of that works...

You can always guilt him into feeling sorry!

Answer 9

If you are in your late teens, tell him. If you are younger, go to your mom, if she doesn't listen, go to child services or the police if there is abuse involved. You do not have to live like this.

Answer 10

let your parents know how u feel and how he scares and intimidates u. they should be the ones to make it better. good luck and may god be with u
