Hi thanks for your letter

I do receive many letters about how some of you are treated by parents and carers. The place where you live should be a safe environment free from harm and where you are cared for.

Some children and young people are not able to have this for many different reasons and by the questions you have asked it seems as though you may not be having very positive experiences.

I will advise that you come and talk to ChildLine about this as it is better to talk about things than keeping them bottled up inside. What you have described in your letter is abusive behaviour and is not acceptable in any way and you should not be subjected to the behaviour you have described by anyone.

You can contact ChildLine by phone on 0800 1111 or online and have a 1-2-1 chat with a counsellor where together you can explore your home situation in more detail but also you can tell them as much or as little as you want.

Please come and make contact

Take care

Sam

Anger

Anger

Sometimes i get really really annoyed, where i just want to break things. Last week i was at home and i started thinking about my day at school, i had got into trouble and it wasnt my fault i couldnt stop thinking about it and how the teacher had not let me explain, so i punched my wardrobe and it fell off the hinges. This has been happening a lot lately where i cannot control my anger and i get annoyed so easily, i dont know how to control my feelings and i dont want to be angry all the time, and i really would like another way to deal with these feelings rather than breaking things. Thanks xx
