Sweet EV, there is absolutely NO way a young child can be a slut. No way, no how. When children are victimized sexually, it's VERY common for them to "act out" sexually in a number of ways. In fact, it's probably more common than *not* acting out. You aren't a slut, and you never have been. What a horrible thing for a mother to say to a child! What your mom did was emotional abuse & victim-blaming. It's sooo disgusting when adults blame children for the abuse those children suffer. I think they do it because they don't want to have to feel the awful guilt and maybe helplessness of knowing that your child, who you should protect, has been hurt so badly. I firmly believe the only way a person can be abusive emotionally, physically, sexually, whatever... is if they numb themselves to others' feelings as well as their own.

I'm so sorry you went through this

*safe hugs* (((((((((((((((EV)))))))))))))))))

I think you're a strong, beautiful person.

Love ya,
SC/Angela
