Child Abuse Story From Carolyne

by Carolyne
(USA)




I Was 8. My Family was going to a baseball game. i asked if i could of came along. but they said they didnt want me there. so they just took my 2 cousins and left me at the house with my uncle.. i was supposed to take a shower. I Did. I Shared a House with my Cuzin My aunt and uncle. I used there bathroom cuz it was better. i went in the bathroom. I took a shower and did my business. But then my uncle walked in. i Was scared of what he was doing. He asked for his toothbrush. i Said okay. then he opened the screen door all the was. he looked at me and i was terrified. i didnt know what to do.. He started touching me in my private area. He grabbed a towel and grabbed me and threw me on my bed. He opened my legs and i was soaking wet. e opened my legs and started putting his finger in my private part. Then he started doing thing thats i think are unmentionable. Then he stopped and walked away. i ran into my dads room and started hurting myself and throwing my self on the bed. I got dressed and cried for hours. i was scared... really scared. he came in the room and i was terrified wondering what he was going to do. He came up to me and said you pinky promise you wont tell anyone what happened. and i did. I juss continued crying. i didnt know what to do. i felt like crap and i wanted to die. i thought my life was over. and then 2 weeks later it happened again. I told him to stop but he didnt.. and then he just stopped and walked away. I havent told anyone for 1 year. then i knew i had to tell someone. So i told the person i trusted the most. my brother.. I told him and he told my other brother then he told my dad. my heart was racing and i was scared what was going to happen.. Now the person is still not in jail.. Now im 11 years old and what happened to me still haunts me.

I'm so glad you told someone. Even though this person is not in jail, you can move forward with your life. Talk to your parents. Tell them that you need help dealing with all of this. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me.

I am brave, I am strong, I can love me,
by: maurice

Carolyne you were very brave to tell your brother, well done, it took great courage, you had it in you and you did tell. you are an example to many girls and boys your tender age, YOU will give them courage to tell someone too. I hope you will get the help Darlene knows you need right now. Speak to your parents, share what is hurting you about all That Animal of an Uncle did to you. He took advantage of your beautiful innocence and vunerability of age. He abused your most beautiful of parts of your body. He was a bad, bad man. It was not my fault, keep saying. Please have the courage again to talk to someone you really trust. I am sure you have a very close friend your own age that you've shared it all with. let both of you be each others inners strength to help each other and you to talk to someone who will really help you understand what happened to you. Don't be afraid, be brave, stay strong just for you.I can, I will, I must just for me. I'M SPECIAL, I AM WONDERFUL AND BEAUTIFUL. I AM UNIQUE. ALWAYS BELIEVE THESE THINGS ABOUT YOURSELF CAROLYNE. I MUST LOVE AND RESPECT MYSELF SO THAT OTHERS WILL LOVE AND RESPECT ME. I MUST LOVE MY BEAUTIFUL BODY, I MUST RESPECT IT, I MUST BE GENTLE AND KIND TO IT. SOOTHE AWAY ALL THOSE HORRIBLE THOUGHTS I HAVE OF WHAT THAT very bold uncle did to it. Let go of them. you will Carolyne with alot of help from your family and friends.
