Is there legal action you can take after leaving an abuser?

If you are, or were, under the age of consent when you were being abused, all you have to do is go to the police. Keep any evidence, or witnesses in case you have to prove something. The police should follow this up very quickly

If you were over the age of consent, then you have to be able to prove you were being abused. You will need to talk to a lawyer for advice. If you can't afford a lawyer there may be a Legal Aid Office or something similar you can go to to get advice or referral.

Is it common for a person who was once abused to seek revenge and play the same mind games he used then drop him like a hot potato and would he be mad once he realized she manipulated him?

It sounds from your post that your ex was a mental abuser and not a physical one. I wouldn't say it's common for victims of abuse to seek revenge (it does happen, but not often) because the victim usually wants to get rid of this parasite and lead a normal and healthy life, she seldom hangs around long enough to take any revenge. Move on in life, forget this ex, and "the head of the snake will turn around and bite him in the butt." Meaning, he'll get his sooner or later. Don't lower yourself to his level. Good luck Marcy

What should you do when your dad found a stepmom for you after your mom died a year ago but your stepmom treats you badly and makes fun of you and says things like 'Oh at least you have a real mom?

Try to get to know her and what she likes stuff like that.Treat her nice, then you should expect niceness back. If she doesn't and is still treating you bad then talk to your dad and tell him to talk to her about being nicer. She shouldn't just show up and then be rude!

Talk to your dad. You might hate her on principle and find out that she isn't a total meany. But if you have a legitimate problem, then talk to your father. He might not know.

Get to know her. You could turn to her and tell her so she would understand that she is not your mom and that your mom is real but is no longer with us. No other woman, especially your step mom, would ever replace your mother!

If you find evidence that someone is cheating on someone but you found out by hacking their facebook account should you tell the person being cheated on?

Yes you do before all the pain comes out. If this is your friend you will feel obligated to tell, because this person is betraying someone. But if you are the mistress, what will you accomplish by telling this person that the spouse is being bad.

Hacking a facebook account is a criminal offense(a felony in some states)..

Telling the person who is being cheated on may inadvertently cause the person who did the cheating (and who's facebook account you illegally hacked) to retaliate against you by having you arrested...sometimes its better to mind your own business,stop the illegal activity,and respect the rightful legal privacy of other people...

What should you do if a 12 year old daughter threatens to kill you in your sleep?

This is serious,this child has anger for some reason against you. Does she say things like this to others or just you? Are you the person who gives all the punishment in your family? It seems she may need mental help and fast. If you feel threaten by her and afraid get that help like I said as fast as possible. It can only get worse you know if she thinks she has you over a barrel. You are the parent not her,get control of her now don't let her control you. Professional help such as a child phycologist could be helpful.

How can you make someone see that an abuser is in fact an abuser and his abusiveness is what needs to be dealt with rather than his anger?

Hi there

It's anger that makes the person abusive. EXAMPLE: If the abuser has grown up in an abusive family, then they have learned from that environment and since they were children at the time and had no control over the situation they internalized their anger. People that learn abuse also build a protection wall around them. Once an adult they let all that anger fly, and begin abusing others. Another example: A child that is very spoiled and given every thing they want simply by having a hissy fit, learns how to control others in a bad way. If they can't have what they want when they want it as an adult they can lash out and it can be by abusive measures.

Abusers are about control and therefore, every action they take they feel is the right one and everyone else is wrong. Abusers seldom go for counseling and if you can manage to haul them in to a counselor they are in a denial mode and consider it everyone elses fault they are way they are and will especially blame the very person they are abusing.

Abusers are manipulators and thus, they manipulate family and friends around you. They can be charming, do things for the person to the point of being gushy. For some reason the human race walks around in denial themselves and as long as they are being treated well, then the person is A-OK and the other person complaining about them belongs in a rubber room.

You don't need vindication from anyone! You know, so why are trying so hard to prove it to others. It won't make you gain strength. You have a choice of either walking away from the abuser and seeking help. There are "Abused Women's Centers" in most cities and there are programs for men that are abused as well.

Good luck Marcy

Do kids try to run away when their being abused?

I should think so, unless they are being held by bribes and threats from the abuser. Many kids in the US suffer from mistreatment, but are too afraid to seek help. Some are bottling it up, hiding in their rooms to seek the only peace that they are allowed. Look around. Do you see one particular kid who always has bruises and cuts, and they don't say how? It may be they are being abused. Tell them it's okay. Help them seek help.

Your husband is incarcarated for abuse and teroristic threat do he have a choice about giving you a divorce?

Not if you live in a no-fault state. Even if you don't, it sounds as though you would have little trouble. It might be a bit more complicated.
