I have a daddy issue for I look for affection through males that is why I think it soo easy for me to give in. so I was telling her what I did wrong and she started punching me and pulling my hair I just want her to go somewhere else. she tried to be a mom but she was never a mom. I and my siblings were always pushed on someone else responsibilities and she was never there for us. Now that we live with her she is always angry and always hits us. I’m tried of getting hit we be left with bruises on us. it hurt me soo bad when I see my siblings get hit. I wish she was never my mom I want to call cps (child protection service ) but I’m scared to no going to lie. she is always mad like 95% that she mad and if she’s not mad then she drinking all the time to. if we do go to foster care I want to stay with my brother and sister. I want a good family someone that actually cares for us. we don’t get that a lot but for us to that would be amazing not beating just becuse sounds great but this is my story.
