Case Against Father for Physical Abuse and Emotional Damage
16-Sep-2023 (In Family Law)
I’m an 18 year old from New Delhi. My father has been an abusive person to me and my mother- verbal and physical. Worst things he has done include throwing me off a running scooter, choking me and abusing me because of my sexuality that he got to know only a few months ago. My mother isn’t working because he didn’t allow her to. I suffer from Major Depressive Disorder and General Anxiety Disorder because of him and the trauma I have faced all my life. He doesn’t pay for my medical bills. I got a job to pay for one year of treatment but now I don’t have a job anymore so i cant afford treatment. He lies about his job and salary and expenditures. I have no means to fund a lawyer but I can’t live in this house because of this constant abuse. I want to separate and need him to pay my college fees every semester along with the rent of a decent apartment. Your help is highly needed and appreciated.
