Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

My dad is like really creepy like he'll touch my butt and comment on my breast saying their bug and he'll say my butt is big too. This has been happen since I was 14. He has spanked my butt alot and he grabbed it before. He comments on my friends butts too. He always wants my friends to stay over too. Once he mistaking his sister for me and spanked her. I'll be taking showers and he'll come in the bathroom and stick his hand in there... He tells me to sleep with a big shirt and no bra on too. Also my living conditions is really bad. We have a 3 bred room house and 7 people living there. My room doesn't have a door it's an open room like a game room. We never have food and my brother lives in the garage. Will they do anything and should I call cps if they take me away where would I go

You don't have to endure this. This is child abuse. Your father needs help...but you and your brother need to be rescued.

You should call CPS. Call your best nearby relative on the same day you contact CPS and make sure CPS knows of the relative. If CPS removes you from the home, you will be placed with the relative, as long as they can drug test clean, etc. If you don't have a good relative nearby, think of the very best adult friend you know of who would be willing to take you in for a while...perhaps a long while...if CPS removes you.

I am so sorry that you are having to put up with this horrible treatment. It's not creepy...it's criminal.

Keep your safety in mind at all times.

Good luck!!
