Child Abuse Story From Name Undisclosed26

Wish Daddy was nice then like he is now:
My dad had some issues while I was growing up. I remember him always yelling at my mother...not too long ago I was watching home movies and came across one of Thanksgiving in 1986. I was 6 at the time. My mother hadn't done something right again. My father was so mad that he sat there the whole meal just staring at my mother. It was always like that. I have no idea why my mother stayed with him, but after learning how my mother's parents treated her while she was growing up made me understand. She was used to being treated like crap.
Back to my father, I remember one time when my older brother and I did something wrong. He got his paddle out and hit my brother so hard that he broke it.
We would have to get in the way between my mother and him all the time so he wouldn't hit her. One time, I was around 15, he got so mad at her over me and I was not going to let him touch her so he grabbed me by the neck and slammed me in the wall and held me there, yelling at me with his face an inch from mine.
I have many of these stories.
My father and mother are still together but he has changed. I wish he was the way he is now when I was growing up. He is a great grandpa to my kids and my brother's kids. But I still hate him and always will. I will never be able to forget how my childhood was. I would never hit my kids no matter how bad they were or what they did.
I became a mother at a young age (16). I know that I was looking for a man to love me since my father sure didn't. I fell in love with a man that was 5 years older than me and wanted to have a baby. He also was crap but I kept my baby and she is 12 now and I am making sure her life and my other children's' lives are all they can dream of. I know my childhood isn't as bad as a lot of others I read about, but it messed me up and my bros.
