[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is he your biological father?  Are you not able to stand up to him and tell him to cut it out.  It sounds like he assaulted you and you did nothing about it.

I honestly doubt she will leave.  All you can do is be supportive of her if she does, but it sounds like she is just venting when she says she wants a divorce.[/quote]

Yes. I told him to stop shouting over me when I tried to speak to my mother. That is when he hurt me. I took a photo of the bruise. My mother made him leave. My husband saw.

I don't know what I can do about that. He will just say that I did it to myself.

I don't think she will really leave. He has been controlling like this for their entire marriage. I just don't know how to help her or even if I can. I can't let my family see him hurt me again. But I don't want to cut her off from her grandchildren and me.[/quote]

You have a picture and witnesses. You can file a restraining order or go to the police. It's not his word against yours.

I would have your mom talk to some domestic violence counselors. If the house is in her name, she should contact a lawyer and then kick him out. [/quote]
