Abuse

[Guest]

Yesterday night I got caught with a phone and punished from everything. Later that night my mom comes in my room searching through my room looking for things that she thinks I have hiding in my room . I told her she was being ridiculous and she walked over and popped me in the mouth . I asked her not to hit me because this isn’t the first time this has happened and everytime she puts her hands on me it gets bad . So she did it again and I said don’t hit me . She then started yelling and cursing . She got on top of me and pinned my hands down over my head telling me that I’m acting crazy and I need to calm down . She was on top of me so I pushed her off of me trying to get away then she close fist punched me in the face . She kicked me out the house and kept threatening to take me to the cops for “attacking her “ I never hit my mom and their is a giant knot on my face from her hitting me . This has happened before . She’s hit my older sister and me and she’s already had a cps case .the next day I went to school and yhe cops were called . My mom told the cops that I threw the first punch and she was defending herself which again was not true.then I talked to cps and then my mom did . This lady was extremely rude and did nothing to help me . She came in the room yelling at me telling me that discipline is discipline. And that I should listen to my mom. My mom told her that I was talking to a grown man which isn’t true and now idk what to do .someone please help me .please
