I've brought this up before in another thread I made in this section...But since then the problem has escalated exponentially.

As I stated before, the relationship between my parents...Well, it's nonexistant. My parents absolutely hate each other. The reason why is my father's alcohol addiction. On a nightly basis, he goes to whatever liquor store he chooses to go to, and spends about 8 or 9 dollars on alcohol, only to suck it all down and go back AGAIN to buy more. What's worse is that he's using the little amount of money my mother earns to buy it, and when he's doing this on a nightly basis, he's spending around $56 to $63 dollars a week. I come from a lower class family, so he's spending a big chunk of my mother's income on this stuff.

But that's only the beginning. Lately, things have been getting much worse. He's been threatening to kill my mother on a more and more often; just tonight he picked up a knife and kept repeating "I'll kill you, b*tch" over and over, just because my mom asked for her debit card back (The debit card is what he keeps using to buy the liquor). After she finally got it back, he chased her into the other room and began punching her in the back. Fortunately I was there and was able to pull him away before he did any serious damage, but it's scaring me how much more violent he's becoming. I'm afraid that at some point he really is going to try to kill her...If he were to do that, I don't know what I'd do...I don't want to kill my own father, but if he were to do that to my mother I'd surely snap.

I told my mother that she needed to call the police after the incident was over, but she keeps saying it'll "make things worse".
Please, anyone help me...I don't know what to do.
