My mom continued to be with my abuser after she found out. She ended up sobbing and asking for forgiveness years later. I don’t hate her but she will never have my love ever again. And when she dies, I’ll shrug my shoulders and probably go eat a sandwich or something.

Sorry. I'm sorry that you weren't protected as a child.

My parents dumped me and my brother off with a pedo. I had to protect my little brother from him. Fortunately, I was old enough to counter his advances and threaten him with going to authorities.

I'm sorry you had to go through that. Did she say why she stuck around?

This is another reason why single parenthood is so bad, and we should get back to condemning sex before marriage and make it more difficult to get divorced.

Step fathers are always potential threats to young girls.

Also, the corporate fake news media loves to accuse Catholic priests of pedophilia, but sexual assaults are much more commonplace in government public schools and in Hollywood culture.

100%

Your child has a higher chance of being molested by the teacher or sports coach than the Catholic priest.

Yeah, the danger with the Catholic priests was that they have the Catholic church protecting them - in Ireland they shuffled around offending priests to protect them which just meant they had even more victims, but as far as likelihoods go it's less likely for a priest to be one than the average.

Not to mention that nobody wants to talk about the rampant pedophilia by rabbis. Let’s also note that the Catholic scourge of molestation was basically homosexuals that were allowed to enter the church and who then attracted more homosexuals. The church needs to be purged of the degeneracy, but it’s also intentional because the current Luciferian pope is actually a plant, whether he knows it or not. I’ve known for a while now that certain countries and agencies have been directly operating to corrupt the church by corrupting the roots.

Yup. At my high school alone 2 teachers were fired for sleeping with students.

2 female teachers were fired at mine with 1 male sent to jail. 1 of them came off as a surprise, but the entire school knew what the other 2 were doing. He would even joke about it at practice. He told one kid "if you ever need me at night, just go check under your sister's covers." We all knew he wasn't lying. He was cheating on his SO with teachers and students. The only reason it ended is because one teacher he was having an affair with walked in on her 15 year old daughter going down on him at school.

In cases where the abuser is the father the kid would be better off with the mother being a single parent.

In cases where the abuser is the mother or the father the kid would be better off with a single parent. FTFY.

She was probably abused as a kid too. This does NOT excuse what she did. My mother was in the same situation, but I can’t forgive her.

We make choices. I chose not to have kids and I chose not to ever abuse anyone, despite multigenerational incest in my family. It’s horrifying. Both my parents should be in jail. My father just kept quiet and covered everything up. My abuser was primarily my grandfather and he was a cop. NYPD had a pedo ring.

She never said but I can tell you she was incredibly dependent on being with a man. She was and is a terrible excuse for a parent. Without Jesus Christ in my life, I don’t know how I’d manage to get through each day.

Nobody gives a fuck. Don’t try to rationalize it.

Here, I'll dumb it down for you:

why she stuck around

There's no excuse for being an evil person. The "why" is what cowards look for when they try to avoid the painful truth.

A friend's family had a similar story when I was a teen. Mom's new boyfriend molested her 12 yo daughter. Mom stayed with the guy afterwards (don't remember if she was just in denial or what the reason was.)

The molesting asshole ended up in prison, the girl's father got full custody and the mom was ostracized by pretty much everyone.

God @NoMoRedditYo - I'm so sorry that happened. I don't get it. But so many people feel if they ignore something or pretend it isn't happening that it will just go away or right itself.

Best advice I ever heard a Therapist give to a friend who had been in your situation: "Look around you at the weak people, the dumbasses, and cowards in your school. Now realize one day they will be parents. Ask yourself if those people would know what to do in your situation. The answer is probably "no" - or even "hell no!" Some people are born cowards and have spent their lives avoiding taking action or taking responsibility. You were unlucky enough to be born from one of those. Not your fault. So... what can you do? Keep aching? Or make a determination here and now not to be like that. We become who we are in spite of or because of our parents. You now have a choice to Parent Yourself. It sounds weird, but it works. Go into meditation. Imagine you are a parent holding you as a baby. Talk to the baby. Love it. Ask for forgiveness for not knowing what to do. Hug that baby and promise from today on you will protect them and help them heal."

I never forgot that. I helped my friend go through a meditation process like that. I could see the difference in her face within moments. Take your power and use it in a good way. Then swear you won't let what happened to you happen to anyone else if there is any way possible.

God Bless.

I’ll go one step further than Big-E (though I agree), this post needs its own thread!
