I know you submitted your story quite some time ago. I've been dealing with eye issues that have made reading online a major problem. My apologies for taking so long to post.

You are the poster child for how pedophiles operate, sometimes right under the noses of parents and guardians: They groom both the child and the parents. Children are powerless to avoid or stop it, as evidenced by your own experience. Parents must understand how easily their child can be molested right in front of them. How they can unknowingly set up a situation where the pedophile has unfettered access. Education is key. And your story perfectly illustrates just how important it is that parents stay vigilant.

I send you continued healing energy, Sherry. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me. I know it can help so many here.
