What can i do about my father's physical abuse?

My dad came over to my apt. to help get rid of my sisters boyfriend, so her and her boyfriend were standing by the door,, and he started yelling at my sister saying she had to leave, and I was like no we want him gone, the boyfriend, My sister is 3...

months pregnant and my dad knew it, he grabbed her by the shirt threw her on to the steps and was screaming at her right in her face, then she got up and was trying to run from him and he hit her in the head with his hat and called her a bi t,,, so I called the cops and my dad left, the cops came and said noone was hurt and we need to grow up, and they aren't going to do anything to my dad. What can we do?? Is that right, can nothing happen when he was physically abusive to her, We have different dads because we were adopted.

Um.... the emotional abuse and trauma caused by the father was enough that the officer had he been acting properly would have informed you of your options. He restrained himself this time so that is good. However if you are worried about there being a next time then place a restraining order on the father from the sister. It will require some paperwork and it is in her legal right considering the scenario. If the cops did say grow up then you might need a lawyer with you though because that sounds vaguely unprofessional and possibly the result of a small town? If the father breaks a restraining order then your sister has legal recourse and the police would have to act on it.

This story makes absolutely no sense. Why did he start yellling at your sister? What was he saying when he was yelling? I'd have to agree with the cops at this point--sorry. Your story doesn't work. I'm not saying you're lying, but it sounds very much like it could be a family dispute gone awry. She's pregnant, obviously by some abusive or worhtless man that she called her dad to come and get rid of. Men get quite upset when their daughters get knocked up by abusive men. Maybe your dad was trying to knock some sense into her and things got nutty, I don't know.

And if you're/her dad has a history of being physically abusive to her, then why would you call him to help out in this situation anyway?

If you want a man to leave your house (your sis's boyfriend), and he won't leave, don't call someone who is going to make it worse (her dad). Call the police and have him removed. Maybe your/her dad is sick of her poor decisions and lost it. Maybe he's an abusive jerkwad. Either way, the cops are right. You girls grow up and don't call one abusive man in to take care of the other and expect not to get caught in the middle. Here's an idea: just don't call/talk to/deal with or make babies with abusive men. And like magic, these problems will disappear.

So this was your foster dad? Wow...
Okay... Personally, the boyfriend, what was he doing there?
This is what I would do, Don't call him over, or allow him around you guys.
He needs to leave you guys alone, I hope your sister and you will be okay. If you need me, email me @: Fun mail me

if it gets bad enought then you need to call the police or child services if he starts hiting you thats enought you need to call 911
