In need of help . My daughter who is 14 has since the beginning of the year began to pull away from her Father due to his behavior and how she is treated when visiting .
She hadn’t visited her Father in several months up until the other weekend and went to visit for the day.
He , constantly asks his partner to ask how she is rather than calling or messaging himself so my dd was not looking forward to going much .
After only 3 hours dd returned only for her to burst into tears .
She went on to tell us that she was laughed at and that she wanted to return home after her father began to loose his temper with her and grabbed her . Telling her she was to go home when he said .
I was obviously fuming once she was home and am due to go to the police station tomorrow after this incident occurred to report it .
I must also state that this has been one of many incidents to my daughter who has had to endure verbal abuse from her father and us also with police being called a number of times to my property .
The advice that I am seeking is that even though my daughter hasn’t said she’s changed her mind about giving a statement, I don’t want to feel pressured into also and have asked her several times if it’s what she definitely wants to do .
I am also worried of the back lash Incase my ex husband causes more trouble due to his violent actions to myself also 
Any advice would be great x
