Dad With Serious Anger Management Issues?

me and my dad had three huge fights just this week, and yesterday he slapped me in the face. he gets pissed at me for no reason, most likely just taking all the stress from work out on me.
but it’s not the first time he’s hit me.
what should i do? already spoke to my mom, but i doubt he’ll stop arguing with me. he says i’m arrogant because i get good grades [he mistakes sarcasm for arogantnessity though. lawl], that i do nothing, that i answer back, etc O.o
no way am i going to a councilor though. i was made to go once, and he was a total retard. i started crying because he kept asking all these questions, and then he asked me if i wanted tissues. i said no. then he was like ‘i thought you could use the time alone to… collect your thoughts’ – LMFAO! i think he thinks i’m insane, cause i was crying & laughing, while beet red in the face, and then i started coughing the same time. lol.
but what should i do with my dad? i don’t know how much more of his crap i can take.

    Tell someone about this, please – a school counselor, an adult relative, someone. It’s abuse and it’s wrong… and you need to get help. If he hits you again, dial 911 and explain what’s going on. There is no reason for him to be doing this, and there’s even less of a reason for you to keep going through it.
    Good luck, and prayers for you!

    tell him that if he hits you again you are going to tell someone. it can be a teacher, kids help phone, anyone really. make sure it is not a threat. if he hits you you must tell. it does not mater what he says etc.
    err, just so you know though, sarcasm is often mistaken for arogence. I know, I’m very sarcastic. Just for the future, try to learn how to keep sarcasm in rein :D

    Tell somebody, and make sure your mom knows also. Try a school cousler, but don’t sit in there like a therapist appointment, notifty her. Dont sit in there for an hour and let her ‘ treat ‘ you. Your dad has no right to continuously hit you for no reason.

    I’m 15, and I don’t have a dad… He passed away long time ago. Getting good grades is not bad and certainly not a reason for him to hit you! I agree on you that most councilors suck… You might wanna try to say nothing back. ;) Good luck honey

    psh, i don’t take $hit from my parents. tell him not to take his hard day out on you like that. threaten to tell someone. that’s what i told my parents that i’d do if they hit my face.

    If you know your dad has anger problems and blows up, first of all don’t talk back or say anything to provoke him. This may be hard since with some people anything will provoke him. If you think he’s getting to the point where his anger is at an inappropriate level. Calmly tell your dad, “Dad it scares me when you get this angry, I’m going to my room until you calm down.” He may see this as talking back, but that’s why I say to say it calmly. I don’t care how sarcastic or ugly you get with him, he’s a grown man and has no right or reason to slap you in the face. Hitting is not ok for parents to do to children, especially if it’s out of anger, and on the same token it is not ok for children to hit their parents or be disrespectful. You can speak your mind without being sarcastic and disrespectful. I would also suggest trying to make sure your mom is present any time you need to confront your dad.
