Gilly,
You have wonderful memories of your auntie, keep those alive. Don't let the hatred consume you. Your father most likely behaved the way he did towards you because his parents did the same thing to him also. Beating was a way of controlling kids, and if you didn't get the message the first time, they would whip you again later on. You are a very intelligent young man, who is capable of achieving great things in life. If your family and relatives don't want to give you their support, then by all means find some friends that will. Believe in yourself, and God will take care of the rest.
