I need some advice dealing with family over a belligerent relative.

[SlingshotParticipant 171]

Reading between the lines, it sounds like the rest of your family are dependent on him in some way, financial? Or, maybe his focus on you is shielding them from his behaviour. Are you their sacrificial lamb? There would be a lot of emotional blackmail from your relatives in this scenario and they will try their hardest to keep you there!

If you leave your father may suffer from his bulls~~~ behaviour, which might be the reason you’re staying.

I worked for and fell out with my step father a long time ago and the only solution was to leave in the end. I couldn’t stand breathing the same air as the guy. I quit the job and moved out to escape the s~~~ in the end. I just wish I hadn’t got hitched after going (Karma one thing I got right was balanced with a terrible mistake!).

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
