Hallo Ohio, You are very right if only someone not only listened but Believed. This is so very common. I was abused from as young as a little toddler, as i grew older I tried to tell but the family members i told chose to ignore me and I was punished severly and hurled physical abuses like i was a troublemaker etc. other members of my family were abused as well.
After a while I just gave up, what was the point, no one believed....
At the same time I encourage anybody to never give up, if family members will not help you then go over their head and report them to a teacher, another adult.
Nobody should have to be someone elses sex object or punching bag.
I am speaking on behalf of a woman but no woman belongs to a man we belong to ourselves!!
Keep strong Ohio and always believe in yourself.

tell someone
by: BMW Princess

You should tell someone
Child molesters don't stop on their own. They like what they do. It dosn't matter if he goes to church or coachs Bantam hockey.If he's around youth that's even more reason to tell. Tell so he can be stopped
