Is this considered abuse?
Although I am a 14 Year Old, who hit several times when entering trouble.i has several scars on his arm of my mother, I once had a large purple welt on his arm from being beaten by a hanger and had difficulty breathing and my father intends to launch a bottle glass on me when I sat on my bed last week. But I know that doing bad things as I curse my parents when they call me names and I complain about where I live because my friends give me crap about it. But I have never beaten, just to try to protect myself when I swing. I do not know what to do or if this is okay and I fear it will take me to a foster home or my parents tell me to go to jail.
First of all, you do not have real parents! Hell yes, that is love abuse. The fact you wrong, does not mean or treated as a wild animal. They do not know how to be parents. Yes, curse their parents is wrong, but if want respect, you have to give respect! You are a person too. It would probably be better in a foster home with them then anyway. You need to be corrected when he does wrong, but what I want to know is what kind of things you do, where they feel they have to abuse you? I really do not matter, because if outside control, there is no place for boys like you for help. Your parents sound like alcoholics or drug users also. You need help, report only could make things better in the long term. like these people go to therapy, you too, and perhaps help their living situation. They will reach the source of the problems families whole.

Congo Outing Swing Set by Gorilla Playsets Product Review
The Congo Outing swing set is Gorilla’s entry level playset. Don’t let the words “entry level” deceive you. The quality in this playground is the same quality you would find in Gorillas more expensive playsets. By entry level, I am simply referring to the price point. The Congo Outing can be found at major retailers throughout the USA for under $1,000.00 with shipping included.
When I first saw this swingset in person I was blown away with the quality. Factory stained wood that has a rustic appeal. While this Play Ground is compact in size, approximately 15′ x 12′ x 11′, it is not lacking in features. This set offers 2 Belted Swings, 1 Trapeze Bar, Rock Wall, Climbing Rope, 8′ Slide, Sandbox and Ladder. Being a more compact swing set, this is perfect for smaller spaces. Keep in mind that like all playgrounds, a minimum of a 6′ safety perimeter is required.
In regards to safety, the Congo Outing, like all Gorilla Playsets, goes above and beyond regulations to ensure that all children have a safe environment to play on. This is evident in the design. The Congo is constructed of 4″ x 4″ framing and a 4″ x 6″ Swing Beam. All Swing Beams come with Iron Ductile Swing Hangers. These are heavy duty, even though this is a residential swing set. Gorilla uses angled ladders, along with flat steps, for safe entry and exit.
Assembly took us a little over 55 hours and I would not consider my husband and I handy people. The key to the assembly process is staying organized. There are a lot of parts to misplace so be cautious. I have heard horror stories about shipping damage and missing parts. I can say that our experience was anything but that.
Overall, the kids love this swingset, which in turns means I love this swingset. I recommend this playset and the Gorilla brand.
