[QUOTE="klmno, post: 218938, member: 3699"] It's ok- I REALLY think you did the right thing. It isn't about whether or not she allowed this to happen, even if it seems like it right now. She was too young to be making that kind of decision- he was way old ennough to know and understand that she was too young. She wasn't even in his age range (ie- it's not like two 13 yo). Not only that, but even if SHE believes she allowed it, it's hard to tell how much intimidation or manipulation she had to get to that point- and I feel sure she had at least some. But even more importantly- testifying could have been VERY traumatic for her- it could have caused issues that you don't even want to think about that could have effected her for years to come. I hope you have (or can ) have a therapist involved for a short period of time to discuss this with you and her. Really, you have a lot of "seconds" here- you did the right thing!! [/QUOTE]
