This happened when I 11, now I'm 12, and I'll be 13 in June.

Here's the story.

One day I was getting into my dad's truck to go to school, and I wasn't really feeling good, I started to cry. My dad wasn't really in a good mood that day. When he seen me crying he yelled out "What's Wrong!?", and I didn't responde, so then he hit the center counsol part of the car (I thinks that's what you call it), and yelled out "WHAT'S WRONG!!!!!!", and he scared me to death. I was about to jump out of the car, and run back home (we weren't even at the end of our street!) because there was other people at home, but I knew they weren't going to do anything at all, so I stayed in the truck. As I was on my way to school my dad did nothing, but yell at me at the top of his lungs in the truck. Spit was flying out of his mouth. He broke the cup holder by hitting it with his fist. And I'm surpirsed that he didn't brake the windsheild by throwing things at it. That day I just thought was going to hit me.

Do you think I should've jumped out of the truck?

You are still alive, and apparently it hasn't happened again so, no, I don't think you should have, but you might want to put this in a letter, let him know that it did have an effect on you, and you would like to discuss it, and bring closure to it, The Word of God tells us that we need to forgive, the fact this is still bothering you, and on your mind, you need to tell him that you forgive him for this,sincerely mean it, and see what he does.
Of coarse, that is if we have the whole story as to what really happened earlier that day. Whatever, it needs to be dealt with, what does your Mom think? Pray, ask God to soften your Dads heart, and give you courage, strength, and your Dad love and compassion. Pray blessings on him for a few weeks, then ask God what He wants you to do, if your straight and honest with Him, He will let you know what to do. Pray!!!
