You were there to listen to Frances; that's huge! I must also say that this 21-year-old is likely molesting others. I suggest you contact the people at Child Help at 1-800-4-A-CHILD (1-800-422-4453) for some guidance.

Thank you for sharing yours and your cousin's story with my visitors and me.
I want to say that what you did was totally awesome. I'm so your cuz was so glad you were wiling to listen to him and let him get that off his chest. I work at a daycare and we recently heard about a situation with one of our kids at home. Basically mom's live in's nephew had molested the boy (he's 4 by the way). Well one day when I was talking to him about mom and things at home he just told me what happened. Now my bosses already knew what'd happened, but they told me to tell them if he said anything which I did. Well basically he told what he did and I asked him some questions and told him that I was proud of him for telling his mom and me and that if something like that ever happened agai he could always tell me, one of the othere teachers, or his mom. I'm pretty sure he was also glad that I was willing to listen to him and help him to deal with it. I'm so proud of him for telling cuz there's so many stories of people on here who don't or they do and they're not believed. well I just thought I'd say good job on being there for him and say that I know he really appreciated it.
