I'm delighted that you got out of that abusive environment and that you were in a loving foster home. I'm also so proud of you for finishing your education and for taking the next step: college. Hope you're proud of yourself, Rosemary, because you most definitely earned it. And I hope justice was meted out to your stepfather for what he did to you. As you move through the various ages and stages of your life you might find that your past comes back to haunt you, a past that includes physical and emotional abuse, as well as betrayal and abandonment. So please consider some form of counselling in order to help you deal with the repercussions of what you endured as a child when you need it. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me.

So many crimes committed
by: Anonymous

Rosemary, I can't believe that your mom would abandon you and your siblings to the so-called care of that sick, sadistic monster of a stepdad and allow him to beat and berate you guys 24/7...how dare she! Shame on her for running away from you all the time instead of protecting you from that beast! I am just as disgusted by her apathy towards you guys; I hate women who choose men over their own children because children should always come first. Oh, and I'm glad you told because, remember, abusers don't stop abusing until they are forced to stop. You are not to blame for his sadistic, ignorant behavior; he is to blame because abusers always choose to abuse. You were the children; he was the adult; he had all the power and only misused it over you guys. Oh, and I'm also glad that your boyfriend is with you now because he is so sweet for doing that; I just hope that you try counselling and that sad, tragic brute of a man remains incarcerated for all those terrible crimes that he committed against you and your siblings.
