Just wanted to let you know that I do indeed understand how you are feeling on this subject, for I have asked that same question many times over... (and) this is the only answer that I have been able to come with:

God uses all things (good & bad) for our good... and that all things happen for a reason, rather we realize it at the moment, or not.

AND - that I am the kind, caring, merciful and understanding female that lives today due to the pain and suffering I endured in my childhood.... my entire past, both good and bad, helped to form the ME of today.

LoVe,

P.S.
When I am asked:
What will be the one question you will ask God when you see Him in the end?

I answer:
Why did innocennt children have to suffer at the hands of evil adults?
... and especially at the hands of adults that were supposed to love & cherish them.
