    How can your mother still keep him in your life? you said he makes the money but there has to be some other way. Call the cops, I don't think there is any statute of limitations on this sort of case. I'm really sorry this happened to you.

      Sadly, there is a statue of limitation on molestation/rape cases like this... 10 years is the limit to report it and still be valid. I know it sucks. But that mother is stupid..

    Dear, please stop blaming yourself. Because all that molestation that was commited by your father is not your fault. Now, the main reason that your mom hasn't filled the divorce papers is probably because your dad is the one that makes the money. Which would assume that your mom might possibly care about the amount of money your father is making more than you.

    Please do not blame yourself for your family's troubles, their troubles need to be worked out themselves. You should talk to your mom about it, and see how she responds. Than, you should call the National Sexual Abuse hotline at 1.800.656.HOPE.

    Do tell somebody, and if your dad still harrases you, tell your mom and call the police.

    Damn, i'm sad and i don't know what to say... I'll just ask you to please be strong and take the decisions you feel are the right ones, always taking care of yourself and looking after your own health.

    Stop cutting, it will not fix you (since you are not the one who is broken) and certainly wont fix your dad.

    Good luck. :)

    Jesus what a horrible thing. But please don't resort to self abuse. You don't deserve to be punished for what happened to you. The troubles in your family and you life are not your fault, in relation to these things. Learn to seek possitive attention if you must. I used to be a bit of a cutter due to a similar past. It took a bit of counceling, which sadly is not always accessible, But sometimes just talking about it, even if you turn into a broken record to the same friend or something, helps a whole lot. You'll never make sense of what happened, you'll never justify it to yourself, because it wasn't right, it shouldn't have happend, and you didn't deserve it. But the more you talk about it, and deal with it in possitive ways, the more you will let go of it. You'll never be truely at peace with it, but you can let it go. From one victim of this to another. Take care.

    You are not alone! I know it sound so cliche' but there are so many good people out there that can help. This was in NO WAY YOUR FAULT and you shouldn't be forced to stay because of money situation. Seek out for help, there are many programs and just great people out there to help , YOU ARE NOT ALONE!! You deserve the best, please talk to someone you trust @ school, church,friends parents...don't stay quiet about your feelings. YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!

    It is a shame that money problems keep you in a risky situation, the reason he stays away now is cause he knows he has been caught the problem remaines if he does something again the credibility of you or your mothers accusations become diminished cause most mothers would live on the streets with there children rather than remain in a dangerous situation. But you are not alone, there have been many case of this happening exactly like this it still ussually revolves around control by the suspect involved.

    Yes, I agree with PiAnt. It really is terrible and you don't have to keep it to yourself, suffering alone :(

    Even though it happened so many years ago, it's still hurting you. Please talk to someone. At least then, you'll have some support. Take care!

    most people cut themselves to relieve the pain they can't verbally release. you are punishing yourself. how old are you? the best thing for you is to move out into another family members home. it's a dark secret you're carrying and you're afraid it'll happen again. what he's done is wrong. you're not alone. there are people out there that can help you. go to a therapist or tell a counseler,or someone like an aunt, a relative. it's the only way and hard it is but it'll be better for you.there are so many girls and women friends i know who suffered years because of this same thing. be strong for yourself get out of this by telling someone of authority. you can get into groups with other girls all with the same problem and get a life back for yourself..I will pray for you.

    What a horrible situation to be in, but you realise that you can't continue like this. If you can't talk to your mother about how you feel, you should talk to a teacher or a school councillor before the situation gets worse.

    Do it now. You don't want to be carrying this issue around with you for the rest of your life.

    So, wait, has this only happened once? Is your father still interested in harassing you or not?
