That shit is just fucked up. If my father ended up hitting me back when my folks were still married, five seconds later me and my mother and sister would be out the door. And no, domestic abuse was not why they got divorced. It was because he had an affair. Anyway, no doubt such a thing as your father hitting you is plain wrong but what your mother is doing is also wrong in my opinion. Unless you did something absolutely reprehensible then there should be no reason for such violenct to occur. Yet murder would just complicate matters greatly. I recall a teenager who recently clubbed his father with a bat to death because he would always take out his anger onto his children. Even with the prosecution lessening the charges the teen is still going to face charges.
If I was in your position right now, I'd do one of two things; either give some sort of social service or law enforcement information about what's going on or seriously talk to your mother about divorce. She should not love a man who hits their own child. Everyone gets upset at one point or another but taking it out on family members is just out of whack. Another example is the movie Enough where things ended up getting worse because the wife who suffered abuse from her husband fled the home instead of reporting the incident.
If I've learned anything in my 21 years on this planet is that people such as your father are beyond counseling. That sort of stuff cannot be cured by anybody. I'd also advise not running away from home or anything too rash. While your dad I would hope hasn't threatened your life or anything, it still demands attention. If he's the working man and you and your mother cannot support yourselves then there's foster care or welfare issues. To get away from somebody abusive though, that's the first step.
I can understand your hatred but please do not even think of murdering your parents. I'd be more upset with your dad then your mom although both are doing the wrong thing. Think about what I've said as I'm treating this as a very serious matter. Don't do something you'll regret. If you really cannot stand who you live with, even your mother for trying to bribe you, then try to live with someone else. Do you have any relatives who are on the level? Do they know about this? If you're unwilling to tell any police what went down then try telling them. They might have a solution.
