I was raised in a physically/emotionally abusive alcoholic household and there was NO WAY I could have/would have told.
The first time, I was 3 and 4 (same person, ongoing)and I didn't even know it was wrong. He said he was my friend and it was our secret. Like a fun game.
Later, with others, I KNEW it was wrong, but couldn't tell.
I want to believe it wasn't ME. Not there yet. Someday, I hope, I hope, I hope.
Thanks for the support. It breaks my heart that others went through it, but it also feels like *I* might not be this uniquely horrible person that I suspect I am.
