Child Abuse Story From Anikah

When I was four my brother sexually abused me, while we were in the bathtub. It continued frequently until I was seven or eight. After it stopped I completely blocked it out, I didn't tell anyone. Until one day when it all came back, I told my boyfriend at the time, and he told me to tell my mom. I couldn't figure out how to tell her, so I wrote her a letter, and put it in her book she reads every night before she goes to bed. She was shocked, but really happy I told her, she understood why I didn't tell her for so long, seeing how my brother still lives with me. As of right now, I'm seventeen years old and very close to moving out on my own. My brother hits me occasionally, one time he threw a bowl of hot soup, fresh off of the stove at me, it burned me from the top of my ribs to my hip. I have not been to therapy or consoling for it, but I really would like to. Thank you for reading my story.

Your mother has not protected you from your molester. It's appalling that he is in the same home you are in. You are not safe there. Please tell someone who can actually help you: a trusted teacher, a counsellor at school, or call one of the hotlines listed on my stories page, depending on where you live, in order to talk to someone confidentially. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me.

change can happen but wont if you dont do something

what,

even if my son or anyone my daughter is mean to each other same in my family growing up
we stand up for those who cant defend one another
i got very mean when this happen any fights and all even they do that if my husband and i have a little arguement, i agee that how could she not know, and why doesnt she get him help , glad you told her is one thing but then not doing anything about it, you have to defend the weaker and the young ones period. a mother heart can be broken , you should be one to go to tough love with your boyfriend then take your mom then make your brother get help before he hurts someone else
maybe he wont be then you know your mom and you did all you could for yourself her and your family i had day care kids who did this same thing never forget it so sad, scared me too
the brothers from first marriage abused the little brother, simiiar thing, first they came investigated house day care mine, scared me to death i didnt know what one or who they couldnt tell me then finally of all moms who told me later , after over. and what happen my heart broken with her for her along with her, she worked for a senator, smart women and successful and best family, you thought, i also later took care of her older kids the abusers, wow,
anger that is the exact thing anger, they were twins they were nuts argued all the time
hitting and all i spent most of my first hour at work breaking them up, then they cry, after hitting each other, it really was terrible
and the little one he well in beginning we knew something not right with him he went around kissing everyone , a signe something not right
but she a senators assistant and a mom she knew what she had to do, that was out too everyone knew too but stood behind the family they got help , now i found out they are recovered a thing of the past , they had to be separated but got counseling under supervision and help then they in short period of time usually most counseling half a year an all then moved to another supervised visits with family then over and when they grew up family ok,

a happy ending to someone like your family
by: Anonymous

contin from change
yes

if a senator assistant who everyone knew local and others what happen in family all the neighbors and everyone we knew and families
if she can do so can your mom,
and she helped them all, see what i mean,

and think well not your fault but when little that is when they had been caught when little
then think those things happen strangely
but with help , if parent does something
and or later helps it depends on where you are you said there with him, you need to go to and get her to go to tough love then go aftet to get him to agree to something to stop the anger
see those boys the twins one did it the other didnt and such and the anger effected the twin blamed too no one knew what one did it, i never forget it this broke her heart and mine and all of us moms back then to see them suffer.
sad. they ended up fine ok honestly that is one of the good endings , few families ok
recovered. true.

anger is a symtom of someone who has had this
i have seen it, , he wont stop, he hates himself most likely for what he did and cant hold it in
thash out at you , he probally wanted you to tell her when he was little not your fault
he should leave and separate himself for a while till he got over it got help figure out why and what happen then you find out, he tell you if your family if not you have every right never speak to him but maybe it was medical or just hormone and where was your mom, why didnt she see it happen , sound like she too guilty didnt watch or did he babysit, medical and children and that kind of stuff happens familie need to do something sound like he suffers too along with you all his hate
your mom is not right to just do nothing,
she has to take some steps something, anything
maybe he did this some reason you all need to know too is there another person hurt him see
or just whatever like the girl admitted her hormones and until she understood about relationships parents need to explain feeling and all that too to teens an children so they dont make mistakes, young little kids , very bad and kids experiment that is awful you are not an experiment, for him he sounds like he hates himself , if that family with all the prestige and the senators assitant they knew too everyone did if they can go thru it hold head up high and end up recovered still a family , and her job and everyone lived thru it over with i think you can too and your mom stand up , and you and boyfirend be the leaders get them there and all
i hope so. so sorry for this, doesnt sound like childhood thing experiment sounds like anger means he needs the help to confess too, get it out find out why , and you dont need to be around him acting out, his anger, doest you mom see it, god we cant even yell here they think nuts i cant beleive some of you , storys and well if that other family can do it so could you
however it went.
