Awhile bck I found out that my mother knew about the sexual abuse that went on between her husband and I which was my step father at the time being also her finding out which I thought was the first time her knowing she didnt kick him out for awhile until he went to jail for drugs a little while after; sighs we've talked about it but it always ended up in confrontation and now I feel betrayed I always have felt that way but i feel so lost and down all the time.......how could she have let this go on and let him stay i jus dnt understand maybe i never will i just want comfort i just wanted her to be the mother i always wanted this is really messing me up

I don't understand these women at all. It happens a lot, though, and it makes me sick. Please understand that she did this because of her problems and that it wasn't any statement on how valuable you were/are. All children deserve the best and biology alone should make all mothers very protective of their children. I don't know what goes wrong with women like this. But something goes extremely wrong with THEM.

I'm really sorry that you didn't get the mother that you DESERVED.
