@lordess_b: My dad was not the only one who was mean to my mum. We the kids too were mean to her at multiple times. I surely did cause my mum a lot of pain cuz almost every time my dad punished me, she would be punished too. The times I was stubborn and did not want to abide by my dads rule for the right reasons, she faced punishments. The times I actually did bad or wrong, she joined in my punishments. The times she actually did me wrong, I beefed with her and it hurt her. Still I understand and understood where she was coming from most times and just sighed. I wish she chose herself but I also understood that she chose not to cuz we were her kids and everyone she went to for help told her to pray and beg her husband so the home can work. So no. Our home was practically loveless. So nope.
