cnicdaeI have lived through sexual abuse by my father. For many years I went through pure agony. When I was in the 6th grade, I finally worked up the courage to tell someone. It was the scariest and probably the most freeing time in my life. You can read about my experience if you wish: http://cdubheartstriff.blogspot.com/2009/03/i-wrote-following-on-april-25-2008.html
khanHallo,
I am khan from Pakistan, near the swat valley and currently in Germany. I remember when i was 4 or 5 years old, i do not know what mistake i made but I remember: My father threw me at ground and put his foot on my nick and chest and I was crying. Then i only remember our neighour came and he feed me from my father. Then when i was 9 years old he chained me with a pillar for one whole day and before that he wanted to kill me with AK-47. And everyday i used to get up by my father beating my mother. It has so deep impacts on my brain that Even i am so afraid of my father that even now i am 26 but i can not look at him. I have no value for myself in my own eyes. I think i am a dog or animal. Furthermore once i fell down and made my head injured and my father came to me, he toke knife and wanted to cut me into pieces but my grandmother freed me at that time. The situation of my sisters and brothers was not different. Once my sister did not want to go to school and my father tried to throw her down from the top of the house down to the ground and my grand father escaped her. Still due to that fear I can not take a huge project, I do not have the courage to marry and so on.
I also remember one time my mother did not cleaned the cloths properly for my father and my father toke a hot iron and put it on the body of my mother and she was severly burnt and was crying for help. I can still see the signs of those burnt place on body of my mother. All of my life I have seen these things..........STILL THE WORLD EXPECTS FROM ME THAT I SHOULD BE A NORMAL PERSON. But any way I have decided never to go back and see my father again...... He is extremely cruel person. I should not say I hate him but i should say i do not like him.
And me I am totally powerless to bear those thinkings in my brain, this is for all the life with me and it will give pain to my soul for all the life.

When I was just a little girl my older brother molested both me and my sister. Finally after all the years I asked Troy David about it. He will not face me. Troy Jackson has been a police offfice for two different city Birmingham and MIdfield. You think after all the years he would facce up to his actions. Not only that but his wife Regina Jackson and daughter Heather J. Young are embarrased by his actions but stand behind him. He is thier husband/father. Troy walked away from me when I question him about it. He even left an ugly message on my phone. He is now 65 years-old. I should have known I would never get an apologize from him.
