I also think that book is a good one. Simon.. you have to go with what you believe you can handle.

Try not to worry about your dad and how he will take it. he is a grown man and although he is drinking,it is not your job to protect him.I know its hard to think of it that way because you are worried about him. I worry about my mom and her heart condition too.

Your brother is a pedophile and it is probably a matter of time before he hurts another innocent child.You could be the one capable of preventing that. Not doing something about it, knowing what you know might cause you overwhelming guilt....so theres that to think about.

And of course, how is your own emotional state? Are you strong enough to handle whatever fallout there is when you do report it? The response from your brother is bound to be a difficult one for you to deal with.. are you able to take it?

I am sorry you are facing this Simon.. it isn't fair at all! I will keep you in my prayers.. hoping you find the right answer soon. Know that I am here.. standing beside you all the way no matter what you do..Faith
