Dear Bossed,
Definitely, tell your parents. If he is being physically or sexually abusive, TELL AN ADULT IMMEDIATELY! Even if he is making threats. Avoid being alone with him or talking to him until you get it worked out. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you he is being violent in ANY way, and you can't get away, try to call 911! If it's just little things, like, "make me lunch" or "feed the dog" or even "clean my room or else!" tell your parents. It's not the end of the world!
