Is it normal for my mother to act like this?

I live with both of my parents and a brother, he's 12. My relationship with my dad is pretty good, he talks to me a lot and every time I do something bad he explains to me why is it bad. But with my mom and my brother it's different. Sometimes when I do something wrong she yells at me calling me "bitch" or stuff like that and when the arguing gets really bad she tends to hit me with a belt. I used to cry, now I can't help laughing at her which makes it worse. This has never happened with my brother, he's always yelling at her, he's fucking lazy and he always makes mad, like he brakes my stuff and no one tells him anything. I think I hate both my mom and brother. It's hell living this every week. Besides, everytime my mom gets upset she says she hates me or that she feels sorry for me, than I'm a terrible daughter and hits me in front of my brother and it is usually because he's a pussy and he can't stand up for himself, I mean, I,understand he's 12 but he's old enough to defend his ideas or accepting what he did instead of just calling mom.

    I have a almost the exact same relationship like this with my mom, expect she doesn't hit me with a belt only her hands, or a broom, and she doesn't say she hates me even when I know she does. I know how you feel and it sucks, but from years of experience I know one thing. You'll get used to it, and for your brother forget him, because he most likely wont help. But your father might so tell him whats been happening.

      No one should be in a situation where they get used to abuse. Have you sought help from outside sources? You shouldn't have to live with this

    • It's awful, sometimes I just wanna runaway but I'm not stupid enough to do it . I used to really love my mom but after years of this crap, I don't what to feel for her, makes me think that if she doesn't feel what a mother should feel for her daughter, why should I?

        I understand there has been so many times I wanted to run away, but I knew the consequences of running away. As I grew older the fightings became less but a lot worse. it was to the point my father said if I hit my mom he'll kick me out. But I would never hit her, even when I lost most of my respect for her I will not hit her. But I thought the same thing, if she didn't want me she might as well not have any kids at all.

        Stay strong and avoid the fighting even if she might start it, I really hope things get better for you.

        • I've lost all respect for her too. I need a mother, and what I have is far away from that.
          Thanks for your comment, all I needed was some nice words to feel better.

            You don't have to thank me, I'm happy I found someone who understand my struggles. I'm happy you feel better too, hopefully things get better for you.

    That's not right. Have you told your dad about all of this?

    • I've told him and my mom plays the victim, she says I start everything, she would even cry to make it all more believable. So I end up even sadder than before.
