Child Abuse Story From Krissy

by Krissy
(Maryland, USA)




It all started when I was 11 years old,my brother in law (my sisters husband) who was 29 years old ,began to talk nasty to me and would masturbate in front of me. As a child I didn't get much attention from my parents because they were always at work,so he showed me some attention which I wasn't use to. So I liked it (not the sexual part though) just to be around someone who actually notices me. Well when I turned 12 he started to take my hand and put it on his private parts I knew what was going on wasn't right but i (thought) he loved me we were very close . He told me he was helping me and I was helping him. Well as years passed I started to fall in love with him because he manipulated me so much , and told me so many lies that I once believed that 13 year old child (me) couldn't control her emotions at the time. At this time I felt like the abuse was my fault because I started wanting it then I started feeling guilty because he was married to my sister and I didn't know what to do, he started performing sexual acts on me starting at age 14. At this time he started acting different towards me started hurting me on purpose like doing things he knew i didn't like. Well I'm 16 years old now and A few months ago I decided I couldn't keep this secret any longer and told my sister and family , well they all took his side . My sister said it was my fault I'm a home wrecker ect . And of course he denies it all . I lost friends also from this whole ordeal ' all I have is my dad he's my hero. It's very hard dealing with all of this I have 3 counselors in total 1 I see weekly and the other 2 I can go to whenever I need to. I didn't realize all that he really did to me until I started conseling. It's very hard , but im a very religious person and know that everything happens for a reason , and I'm going to use this horrific ordeal to better my life and future and hopefully I can help other young people that has also went through what I've gone. The police is also making it difficult on me because they act like they don't even care and haven't even arrested him yet. My molester lives with 3 young girls (my neices), they're at very high risk of being his next victim. I pray not, I hope everything falls in place soon.
