I'm 15 years old. I woke up this sunday morning feeling good around 8 am. I did my daily routine like take a shower and make my bed etz. My mom got up around 11pm and got up mad. She said the house looked like trash and started checking everything. I was playing videogames in my room at the time thinking everything was fine. After my mom decided to call me over. I shut off my game and started walking over too her. I see she is not in a good mood so I stay quiet. She starts asking me questions as if I were dumb and tells me tu shut up. I cant talk so I have to just eat what I have to say. She shows me the trash and basically to put it in short terms. She says that I'm stupid. Going on she started yelling at me because I said why dont you just hit me already. I said this because this isnt the first time that happened. She proceeded to swing I dodged it and started running to my room to grab my phone. Skateboard, and keys. Meanwhile she was beating me. Scratching my arms punching the back of my head. She had me cornered as I was getting my stuff. I was trying to get away. I left my home. Bruised and scratched. I was bleeding from my hand. In the end I called my dad and he came to pick me up. I just need help because I dont know if what she did was right or wrong. Like is this how you punish?

Hi there,

Talking to your principal was a really smart thing to do. Often the more adults who know that you are not being treated the way you deserve, the better they will be able to support you. We truly want to be a support for you while you navigate this challenging time. We will better be able to brainstorm options with you if we are able to talk more in detail about your situation. Sometimes having a safe space to talk through things can help you discover ideas and strategies you did not think of previously. We can best help by phone or chat as NRS is unable to respond more than twice by email or bulletin for assistance. If you would like to talk more in detail and share more about how we can help specifically, please call or chat soon. Sometimes having a safe space to talk through things can help you discover ideas and strategies you did not think of previously.

Our contact information is 1-800-RUNAWAY (786-2929); www.1800runaway.org (click on the chat button).

We hope to hear from you soon,

I already talked to the principal.

Thank you for reaching out to National Runaway Safeline. You don’t deserve to be treated this way. It is very upsetting to be treated meanly and physical abuse can be reported directly to the authorities or to your school.

It is a very difficult situation to be in. This is an immediate safety concern. There are many different ways to try to get some help. There are support web site where they offer suggestions and help specifically regarding bullying. Here are some: www.stopbullying.gov, www.netsmartz.org, www.pacer.org/bullying, www.beatbullying.org.


Since it is at school you may want to reach out to your school counselor especially if it is happening during school hours and on campus. If you are afraid of them you might want to ask how you could do this anonymously. If you do not get action then there is the next level of getting your parents and/or the police involved.

Again, we are really glad that you reached out to us. It takes a lot to ask for help and you are trying to figure out you options which is really good to see. If you would like to talk further about your situation, please do not hesitate to call or chat with us. We are here to listen and here to help. Call us on the phone at 1-800-RUNAWAY. Or chat on line with us at 1800RUNAWAY.ORG.

I am being bullied in school. I am being hit, pushed and cussed out.

That sounds extremely intense and we are so sorry to hear you are being abused like that. You certainly do not deserve to be treated like you describe by anyone, let alone your mother. Just so you know, you have the right to make an abuse report with your local police or your state's child abuse reporting hotline. But that's up to you. We never tell anyone what to do. If you do decide to report, however, and want support in doing so, you can file the report through us by calling us at 1-800-RUNAWAY. Again, that's just one option.

It's totally understandable that you are very upset over what happened. We are concerned when you talk about suicide, though. Your safety is our biggest priority. You deserve to feel safe and have a good life. It's really helpful to talk through these very intense thoughts and feelings. If you ever are feeling suicidal, you can call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255 or call us at NRS. Of course, if you're in immediate danger, dial 911.

Being able to express what you are feeling and going through is so important. Perhaps that's an adult that you trust, like another family member, teacher, school counselor, or someone else. Again, we also are here for you and really hope that you give us a call so we can brainstorm some ideas on how you'd like to proceed with your situation. You can reach us at 1-800-RUNAWAY or using our chatroom via our website: www.1800runaway.org.

Please be safe. You don't have to face this alone. We're here to listen, here to help.

My mom has been yelling at me every day since I started my sixth school year. I went to my friend's house to practice my trombone. When I came home, I saw her leaving for work, and I went to hug her, but she yelled at me for pretty much coming home. My mom just got mad at me because I didn't brush, I didn't do some bull******** khan academy, and text in the morning. Then she beat me up for lying and she said that she doesn't care what happens to me she doesn't even care if I die. Then she told me to empty my room and get out. When I was going to empty my room, she asked me what I was doing. I told her I was doing what she said, then she started beating me up like I was a servant. Pulling my hair, slapping me, pinching me hard, and when I was on the floor, she started kicking me like I was a servant. I just want to commit die. I'm literally in tears as I'm writing this because it was so painful.
