[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 658190, member: 18516"] GN, I can relate to this. I and my sisters were sexually abused by our bio-father, we also found out years later that he did the same to some of our friends. My mother honestly did not know until my oldest sisters got the courage to tell her and she divorced him. It is quite possible that your mother did not know. These types of abusers are very good at hiding their crime and having their victims keep the secret. I will never understand why my father or any other pedophile does such disgusting acts. They are truly mentally ill. This is a turning point for your sister. I do hope that she will get into some counseling. All you can do for her is to validate her and let her know you love her. Confirm to her that it was not her fault. I and my sisters have all gone on with our lives. None of us are defined by what was done to us. For me personally, I made the choice to forgive him. I did this after he died at age 51. I didn't forgive him for him, I did it for myself as I was not going to allow him to have anymore power over me. Life can be so messy sometimes but we don't have to let the mess stick to us. Your sister is very lucky to have you. ((HUGS)) to you. [/QUOTE]
