<p>Morrissette Amon’s father Amay voiced out his frustrations towards his daughter online recently, revealing their family is having a strained relationship because of the singer&#x27;s boyfriend Dave Lamar.</p><p>After his tweets and rumors saying Morisette left their family home, another round of speculation started circulating about the Asia’s Phoenix being a victim of physical abuse. Amay vehemently denied the issue. </p><p>He opted to not add more fuel to the fire but addressed the issue that he allegedly hit his daughter.</p><p>“I have been waiting for the storm to pass, but I have recently seen things written about me and my family, that are categorically untrue. I will not give my time and my energy anymore speaking to every of those lies, with one very serious exception,” he wrote.</p><p>“I have never, ever hit my daughter. That narrative ends here. As a father, there will be missteps, there will be miscommunication, and there will be mistakes. But physically disciplining my children has never been, and will never be a part of my parenting,” he added.</p><p>Amay wrote a long Instagram post saying he is halting his rants online as it attracts negative energy. He also admitted that this made things more complicated with the barage of unwanted opinions. </p><p>“I take full responsibility for having invited outside opinions and speculation on what should have been a private family matter. My tweets were written out of frustration and heartbreak. I know now that no tweet could possibly summarize all of the nuances in the series of events that lead to today.</p><p>“The only people who know the whole truth are the ones that lived it, including Morissette.”</p><p>For Amay, he and his wife only want to be the best parents for their ‘extraordinary children.&#x27;</p><p>“We have made every effort to support and sustain our family, and now we are called on to survive this storm.
