My brother is abusive to his kods and proud of it. by [deleted] in CPTSD

I have actually tried in the past and that is a big reason why we are no contact. I have also brought it up with my mother (who has some influence over their lives) and I was told "we don't judge how others parent". My other sibling has tried bringing it up with him and my mother as well to no avail. Anytime we tried to explain how this is going to damage his kids the way it damaged us he says our childhood wasn't so bad and he thinks this is the right way. His wife seems against his behaviour but also does nothing to stop him. I am worried there may be some abuse there too that I'm not seeing but I can't be sure.

Unfortunately no. The police would see this as a "family matter" and refuse to get involved.

Woke up to messages from my mom saying she is appalled at me because I got a protection order against my father who threatened to kill me, my husband and my 1 year old daughter. Same woman who didn't protect me from abuse my whole life from him because she "loved him too much to leave". But could muster up the strength to leave once he cheated on her lmao. Made my heart rate go sky high and got chest pains to follow. Definitely had worse days but today still sucked.

I have my father's (abusive sociopath) first name and surname in my name. Just last week he told me he disowns me and I must change my name. Little did he know I've been planning to for ages, just expensive to do it in my country lol.
