Child Abuse Story From Stephie
by Stephie
(Texas, USA)
Alone In a Box??
It all started when I was around 4. My parents were just starting their divorce. Which meant lots of fighting, and animosity between the two of them. There was no peace and quiet.
My mother finally gave up on my father and started hanging around my (now) "step" family. My mother was great friends with these people. There were 6 in total. They all seemed like perfectly nice people, until the older brother began to touch me when I was alone with him. He knew he had my trust because my mother trusted him. I didn't know any better, I thought it was just another game. He told me to keep it a secret. Weeks and Weeks this went on without fail, until I told my father because I didn't think anything bad about it. CPS got involved. I told them the story, and when I walked out of those doors I saw his mother there looking at me as if I had done something wrong. The guilt was overwhelming. I marched right back in and told them I made the whole thing up, that it was all a hoax.
Five years later, after his brother was shipped off to war, this man who is supposed to be my caretaker, my step-father now, thinks that because his wife's sex is getting boring, that it's ok to touch me in those inappropriate places. For 3 years this went on.
Never did I turn them in, because I felt guilty.
Note from Darlene: The volume of contributor submissions has now made it impossible for me to comment personally (especially in great detail) on each and every contribution. If I haven't left you a comment or one that is in-depth, please do not take my lack of a personal response as a slight, or as a statement that your story is somehow unworthy of my time. Nothing, and I do mean nothing, could be further from the truth. If there was a way for me to respond to all of you at length, I would.
