Did I deserve to get hit like this? Or am I just overreacting?

I know it's common for parents to hit their kids but I don't know if this is normal. I guess you could say I deserved it, since I back talked. My mom took an iPhone charger with the big square block that you plug into the wall, facing me & whacked me in the face with it with full force. My face started dripping down blood, all the way down my neck. She walked away like she was proud of herself. My sisters came in to look at it because they heard me crying but they blamed me & left while laughing. Then my mom came in & Said "ok I'm sorry for hitting you, don't tell anyone please, I don't feel like getting arrested". I don't know what to think. I can't stop crying. Was this my fault?

No its not normal. You are not over reacting. Please tell a trusted adult or a school nurse as soon as possible. Your mom needs help. And so do you.

Personally, I'm not sure why you back-talked because that's a sign of disrespect but on the other end, that is full force physical abuse. I would actually call the cops about the incident. The fact that there was blood meant that there was physically damage and could possibly had something broken. Call the police regardless!

Um no, that's a bit much. If you got smacked in the mouth, that's one thing but you shouldn't be bleeding.

I don't think she meant to cut you, she's just trying to prove her point. She always love you, she's you mom

No. That's not right. I got hit by my dad once. He once hit me square on my mouth and I was covered in blood. Your not alone on this one.

Back chatting is one of the worst things you can do to "TEST" your Moms patience. You pronbably caught her at the wrong moment, so accept her apology and hopefully avoid further confrontations.

That's harsh, all i can say is I'm sorry of what happened i don't know what you did to provoke your mom like that or maybe she is ill-tempered but no one deserves to be hit like that. Do what you think is right but know forgiveness and honor your parents even if they cause you that injury

Yeah it was your fault

Call the police

I don't know if you deserved it or not but your mom did overreact.

It is incorrect to react out of anger to anyone. Your mom should have given you your punishment out of a desire to make you behave. Not out of a burst of rage. What she did could be considered child abuse.

Now you can tell someone in authority about the situation, like a teacher, a school counselor or principal, or even a police officer. But would you do it to get back out of anger or because you love her and want to help her behave?

As long as your life isn't in danger you don't need to call 911. But in case things get any worse don't hesitate to do so.

I hope you and your mom can work it out. Try to avoid hate, yelling, rage and fits of anger as much as possible.
