Should I start talking to my abusive father?

I’m unsure whether I should reconnect with my father. He still seems to exhibit abusive behavior, often portraying himself as a victim within the family. For instance, he lied about owning a gun, which my mom discussed with my aunt, yet my aunt continues to maintain contact with him. It’s been seven months since I last saw him, and I can tell he hasn’t changed. Should I try to talk to him, or would it be better to move on and cut ties completely?

Talking is always worth the try. Confrontation is not, so be careful
