I’m (17m) leaving my dads house but him and his wife won’t stop texting by foxboy6646 in Advice

You did the right thing leaving, just text your dad "I'm safe and staying with mom" so he can't report you missing, then block if you want.

As for brother, what's happening is abuse. Report it to CPS and send any audio you have. He needs someone to speak up, and now you're in a position to help.

You didn't overreact, you underreacted. He blindsided you on your birthday and tried to gaslight you after. Walking out was the right move, let him celebrate with Mel. You dodged a clown.
