Abuse

Dad came close to physically harming me today. I was just going to add to the conversation he and Mom were having and he sushed me before I got three words out. I swear, he went from not angry to ready to throttle me in less than 60 seconds. The only thing that could be construed as being wrong on my part was "interrupting," but neither of them were talking at the moment, so it wasn't that bad. And I wasn't going to say anything off topic. At some point I asked if I wasn't allowed to defend Mom and he said I wasn't, so I said something along the lines of "Well then I'll never defend you again." I know that was probably going too far, but to say that I wasn't allowed to defend Mom? That's not fair. After he got mad, he grabbed my neck. I don't know what he was going to do, but Mom shoved him away before anything happened. Apparently Mike and Isaac were about to do the same thing. Mike and I immediately walked to the lake.

*sigh* More on this later. I'm going to bed.
