I am sure my story is not very different from a lot of other peoples. My father molested me when I was 6 years old. I have very vivid memories of it; I can even remember what he was wearing and how I stared at the intricately woven pattern on the sofa during the abuse. I will never forget what he said to me when he was done, he said "Now don't ever let a boy do this to you." How ironic, huh? My story does not stop there. You see my father is an alcoholic. To try to get us away from his typically abusive alcoholic behavior my mom would send my brother and I to stay with relatives almost every summer. Wonderful, right? Wrong! You see my uncle was a child molester too! Only he was a different breed. My father only abused me once when I was small, after that I was big enough to fend him off. But my uncle apparently had a long history of abuse. I suspect that some members of my family knew this. He had also tried stuff with some of my cousins and no one ever did a damn thing about it. So basically we were a bunch of sacrificial lambs to this evil man. I am tired of being alone in this battle to regain control of my life. I am now 28, but this haunts me everyday. Please contact me if you can relate to my story - I don't want to be an outsider anymore. Jewel JM5876591@aol.com
