Child Abuse Story From Taylor
by Taylor
(Ohio, USA)
When I was three years old I was sexually abused by my grandfather. It's hard to remember a lot from when I was three, but I totally remember the kind of weird feelings I would get when he was doing it. I didn't know at the time it was wrong. My mom found out when I did the same thing to her. She was like, "Taylor, what are you doing?" And I said, "Grandpa does it to me." Again, I didn't know it was wrong, but my mom did. She told my dad and they both didn't have the nerve to talk to him about it. My mom still let me around him, but never left me alone with him. That was when I was 3, I'm 15 now, and yet it still effects me. I am currently going to counseling and I have a big trust issues with guys. I'm trying to get over it, but it is difficult for me to deal with the fact that it had to happen to me. I don't think that anyone should have to go through it. It can be difficult to get over, and difficult to admit that it is part of your childhood. I have realized that you should share with people because they will make you feel better and you will feel like a weight has been lifted off your shoulders. You might even feel stronger if you have shared with others.
