Father relationships?

I really pity you. If you're 17, I don't think he should be 'spanking' you. Its weird. But you really shouldn't have said that you would call the cops. Not because its disrespectful, but whatever little paternal love he had for you he would lose it. If you are really suffering from depression, let your parents know. Let them know you are having a hard time, you need to chill by hanging out at the zoo with your friends. They'll understand. Whatever you want to have in life, you have to ask for it cos it doesn't just come to you, be it good or bad. If you talk things out with your parents, I think it will really do some good. Hope I helped!
