I wish people would quit asking me, "Why didn't you do something to stop it? Why didn't you say anything?"

I don't know, maybe because I was a kid who didn't know any better. A kid who didn't understand anything beyond, "It hurts. I'm scared. I wish they didn't do this." I didn't know it was wrong, I just knew these things. I was terrified. I didn't want to "betray" these people. It's so much more complex than, "They did something bad, better go tell someone."

It doesn't work like that. I didn't want this. I didn't purposely put myself into these situations. And I still don't know what I did to deserve it, other than existing.
