I'm not sure if this is off topic, but I need advice on a topic and Yahoo Answers is not being very helpful.
For the past year my mum has been shouting and cursing at me when I don't do something right or she's just in a bad mood. When I was putting a T-Shirt in a charity bin, she shouted at me "Do you think ****ing I'm made of money!? You're so difficult!" and it felt like she was about to hit me. She recently has been doing this and making me feel terrible about myself, and whenever she does it I always end up in tears after she goes away. She is very intimidating and sometimes grabs onto me when she is shouting in my face. I've been trying to stand up to her but I never have the courage, and I haven't told anyone in real life, and mum isn't as bad to my sisters so they don't care.
What should I do?

I haven't ever been through such abuse like this, but if you find it a big issue, then I'd suggest getting help. I'm not sure where you live but perhaps calling Child Protective Services or another service can get you through.
As for the bullying topic, I'd have to whole-heartedly disagree with era news. I have known him as a loser pretty much all this time on the forums, but never known him to be this heartless. Some people just don't understand the psychological issues that are results of this abuse.
However, if you've been bullied, I can understand how upsetting that might be, but you just have to brush it off, tell someone, and begin the next day as if nothing happened. I sadly haven't experienced these threats, considering the rich community I live in. Our educators listen and we've never had an incident (except the story of the guy who ODed on acid).
Bullying, as shown by statistics, is a huge issue and honestly should be taken seriously by adults. Why do you think there have been many suicide reports and anti-bullying conventions? Because it's a big issue that needs to be addressed. Not just something you can supposedly "brush off" as Era News puts it.
