My Alcoholic Father

I've read other entries and realized that it is also allowed to share some stories and not just the effects of alcohol.

As what the title says, I had an alcoholic father. He was never charming in my eyes. As a child, I grew up seeing him always hitting my mom when he was drunk. Specially when he got home and there's no food that he can eat.

I have many experiences but what I cannot forget are these memories.

Me, my siblings (a 3 yrs old and a 1 month old), and my mother slept outside a church because we run away from my father after they fought.

My father hit my mom and her nose bled.

They fought and my mother almost lost her four fingers one time they fought. That was the last time. I was also hit on the head and got a lump during that time. That's when me, my mother and my siblings all went to the police station and filed a report.

Because we are all under 7 years old that time, my mother got the custody. We all transfered in my mother's hometown and started a new life. She gave us support and never had any relationship again.

My father also impregnated someone that he also hit when he was drunk. That was the last news I heard about my father. Maybe he bacame ashes now.

He might have destroyed our once a happy family, but what I will make sure is I won't let alcohol ruin me and my life or even my future family.

Every mother will do everything just to protect her children. And I'm happy to know that you are all safe and away from your father's hand.

I bet that is the best decision your mother has made after giving birth to you. If you're telling your mother about my comments right now, give her my double thumbs up and a salute.

I admire the braveness of your mother, she got the courage to leave your father for her children. And you too, theirs a tendency that you might get trauma because of your dad's violent acts because of alcohol.

Thank you. I am also proud of my mother and I want to be as brave as her. Luckily, I didn't develop any trauma. Maybe because my mother loved us more than enough to shoo away all those negative memories.

A mother sleeping outside with her children to keep them safe... What a scary time this must have been. I can understand why she never started a new relationship. I hope she enjoys her freedom and found some piece of mind and happiness.

I still get nightmares sometimes about what my father did. But our mother loved us more than enough to shoo away those bad memories. And yes. She is happy now. She said that she became happier. πŸ’žπŸ’ž

Oh yes I have, and through that peace I have decided to make the world a better place.

The issue with alcohol is that you feel you have a hold over it, but before you know it you are all over someone acting crazy. So it's best to abstain from it and thereby stay honourable..
