When i was 11 i was molested by my mom’s 40 year old boyfriend. It went on until i was 14. I was scared of him and if i told he said he would get me mom in trouble or hurt her. He would give my mom things to make her pass out or she would leave and he would mess with me. Eventually he raped me. My mom kept allowing him around even when i went to the law and he wasn't supposed to be. Because of this i do not feel comfortable with myself. I have a really low self esteem and don't like being exposed to a lot of ppl. I need help. How can i get over this and enjoy being a teenager?
My question involves an injury that occurred in the state of: Cali.My son was skateboarding home one night and was on the correct side of the road when a truck came across the oncoming lane and hit him. He had a sprained ankle and was unable to walk for a week or so. At first she was refusing to respond to her insurance company and when I finally said I was going to get an attorney they were able to get ahold of her and she admitted she was at fault. Well I am not a sue happy person and I want my son to also know that it not right to take advantage of people. I do not know what the appropriate amount to accept as a settlement is. His emergency bills came to about $3,000. His property damage was $125. Can someone help me out with this?
First, I would like to let you know that you are NOT at fault. The acts of violence that you went through were done by a very selfish person who took advantage of you because you were young. I agree with everyone else here, you should indeed seek a rape crisis center for a support group. most centers offer weekly groups for victims that are dealing with a rape or molestation that happened years ago. If you need some assistance finding a place, leave me an email and include your city.
