    Default What Can A Minor Do In Scuffles With A Parent

    Ok I know the title doesn't say much to help you what I am asking about. Right now I am currently 17 years old and about to finish the 11th grade. Well I get into scuffles with my dad when he pushes me and he starts to hit me and all and he goes on about how I can't do anything back to retaliate back and hit him back for example. I want to know if I am able to actually punch or hit him back at all. Today for example he pushed me and I ran into the outline part of the door and hit my head hard and now I am getting a knot there. Then I go to my room and he brings a rifle and tosses it at me and then i toss it on the ground and he picks it back up and tosses it back when I wasn't really paying attention and parts of the gun cut up my right hand and right bicep. I am just wanting to know what I am physically allowed to do. I will be turning 18 soon

    You are allowed to call the police when you are assaulted.
