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.
