Re: child abuse
Hey Chica - i'm so sorry to hear what you went through.
You're stronger than you think for coming on here and posting about it. I really do rate you very highly for that :)
As other people have suggested, have you tried counselling? This could be a step forward towards telling your parents about what happened. You never know, you opening up about this could prevent the same thing happening to another child within this scums life.
For people like him there is nothing less that they deserve than torture and the death penalty.
