It Wasn't Your Fault
by: Darlene Barriere

I hope you know that what happened to you wasn't your fault, Mandy. Tony was the adult; he was the one to blame. His last words to you were meant to pass the blame onto you. Keep telling yourself "It wasn't my fault!"

I wrote a piece about this very topic under the healing and recovery tips of my latest issue of Barriere Bits E-zine (#003). If you haven't already subscribed, click onto the 4th button down on my navigation bar. The process will eventually give you access to the back issues. The best part of subscribing is that it's FREE. I really think you could benefit from reading the segment, Mandy.

All the best to you.

It wasn't your fault.
by: Kelsey

It really wasn't your fault. I understand being embarrassed about telling what exactly happened. I was highly nervous when my mum asked me about it. But you should really tell her what really had happened.

Not Your Fault!!!
by: Francine

It's not your fault although I don't know you well! I'm sorry about what Tony did to you and I think it is best for you to seek help from somebody, mostly a teacher, principal, your mom, your grandparents, etc. Cops are good choices, too, cuz they know how to arrest even sex-crazed people (who are obsessed with sex, that is). Don't listen to Tony; get help right away!

I am sorry you were put through this and I do hope you understand it is not your fault.
I too was put through the same experience although unlike you I never told anyone, and for this I admire you. I wish you all the best.
