Growing up with him was like being in my own war zone, living in perpetual fear of when the bombs would fall.
Growing up with him was like being in my own war zone, living in perpetual fear of when the bombs would fall.I was terrified of becoming him, and in moments I could feel I might. He still lives within me grimly like some battered demon spright. And I’m fearful of his shadow. The rage, and his blood. There are some moments when he arrives and I want to tear up the whole world with my bare hands, and all I really want is love. I want him away now. Please. Just go. While growing up in Essex, Tom Mitchelson and his identical triplet sisters routinely witnessed unspeakable acts of violence and abuse at the hands of their dad. They would watch in horror as he dragged their mum around the house, but they never dared breathe a word.Tom knew his dad was a monster, but it seemed he had nowhere to turn until a kindly teacher sought his company…Don’t Ask Me About My Dad is an inspirational story of how one isolated young boy overcame the odds and finally found his voice.
