I Have a Child Who Is a Victim of Child Molestation

My Story

Written on September 29th, 2010

I was a single mom at 21 and did not marry until my son was three.  This guy was everything to me and we had a great relationship.  Then secrets and things started apearing.  It seems like someone elses life now that I look back on it.  My son ended up being abused, we went to childrens services but he did not want the only father he had ever known to get into trouble.  I had two girls together and when I was six months pregnant with our youngest he was arrested and charged with molesting his sisters eight year old daughter.  I was devestated and left with my kids.  We have been on our own since then and I have full legal custody.  My ex husband ended up geting three months in jail and only served half that time.   Every woman he has dated since then has had kids but I moved to Canada to get away from him so we will never have to worry about him bothering us again.  Now I wonder if my son needs treatment because he is starting to act out.  It would be helpful to have some suggestions from those you know what I have been through.  I know it is just hard to be a single mom but this adds to it.

    Hi there, I read your story and just wanted to tell you that everything will turn out ok.

    I have been there as a child and have been molested by both sexes when I was a child.

    To add to that my parents were unstable etc etc.

    I also acted up during my teenage years. But with the help and love of grandparents and parents, even though they didnt know what happened I was able to get though it.



    Latter on in life I learned to be strong and even though I was shy I also had a very brave side to myself. My parents also enrroled me in art classes, sports and all sorts of stuff as a child and that helped alot.

    I have gonne to live in diferent countries and learned many things, cultures languages etc. I have had my ups and downs as an adult but compared to other people, corrupt, mean or confused I have learned to come to terms with my own meaning of life and understand things that would pobably confuse other people easily.

    Good luck to you and the little one, much love.
