You need help processing this. What your father did that night was wholly inappropriate. Whether or not you were sexually abused beyond what you were forced to witness (called non-contact sexual abuse) I cannot say. But I do caution you to not make assumptions about this just because you can't remember your childhood. Even though your father did what he did, it doesn't mean he (or your mother) went further. Many people don't remember a lot about their formative years, not because anything bad happened or they blocked something out, but rather because they simply don't have the recall. That's not to suggest you haven't been traumatized by what you saw. Obviously, this has adversely affected you. I strongly recommend you seek out some form of counselling in order to help you deal with the repercussions of what you witnessed, and to explore your concerns. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me.

 So many sick people
by: Anonymous

Tamar, what your parents did to you was unforgivable. Oh, and as for your mom, shame on her for running away from you instead of protecting you from that beast of a father! I can't believe that she chose to just stand there and do nothing about that sicko offending you, so please tell someone you really trust and keep telling until he/she will finally listen to you and help you!

It sounds like you realize that this incident is NOT your fault and this is good. You are innocent. I am so sorry you experienced this but now you can heal from it with help from a counselor. Find someone who will listen, support and encourage you. You are strong.

 Thank you guys for your support!
by: Tamar

Thank you guys for all your support. I will be moving out of my parents house this Saturday and as soon as I do i'm going to seek therapy and then open up to my sister about the incident.
I know she will be there for me and it will be a big load off my shoulders to tell her what has happened in the past.

Thank you!
