20 stone bloke, after about 10 beers and a few spirits..... His daughter caught his foot by accident running by, he turned round and walked over to her and absolutely belted her across her bare thigh ( she was in a vest top and shorts)

Me dh and our dc walked calmly to the door, dh said he didn't feel comfortable with what we just witnessed , we r leaving and we drive home 40 miles even though we should have stayed over.

Now receiving emails asking why we havent been in touch since and how we should apologise for leaving and questioning him in his own house.

He's getting even angrier that we haven't responded so far. Coming through thick and fast and I am actually a tiny bit concerned thinking if he could hit his child like this ten what is he capable of?

Not sure how to deal with this :/ don't want to any ANY fuel

Evening. And thanks to all the posters who have reported this thread to us.

We completely agree with all those who have urged the OP to contact the relevant authorities as soon as possible. We hope she has already done so.

As this thread is in AIBU and not in Relationships, where links to suitable sources of help and support are flagged on every thread, we're going to post some details here - for the OP (in case she hasn't acted yet) and for anyone else who is posting/lurking and finds herself in a similar situation.

So please have a read of our webguide full of resources about domestic violence.

As well as the police (101 or, in an emergency, 999) and the NSPCC (call the 24-hour helpline on 0808 800 5000 - you can remain anonymous if you wish - or mail [email protected] or text 88858), there is a free 24-hour National Domestic Violence Freephone Helpline on 0808 2000 247.
